And Jon L, what upgraded insulation package did you use? Sounds like it's the best.

Sorry, nevermind.
WHOA NELLIE !!
I said it was quiet but not as quiet as mine !! Now MS behave !!
Your machine has been bojacked! Your mini fill is wayyyy too high so that deadens sound, I don't know if this is intentional or a mistake. So for a real comparison this has to be repaired. Second [ -10] points to you -as you have an annoying rattle in your control console - N O I S E Y!
Third I'm not done yet Wanda !! Next we will need to use the SQL meter Phil recommended to us and do a 1 meter compare at MINI wash - TRUE MINI wash at the correct factory water level.
Your copy of the 1967 Frigidaire Lid Sound Deadening was impressive to say the least !!
May the BEST washer win !

Oh Boy...
I was waiting for a response to that comment about quietness.
Wanda... Too funny
Quietest 1-18 Ever
My WL is where it has always been, and I don't really see the point of running a mini WL agitation with no clothing at hi-speed, this is not the way I usually use my washers.
The very minor rattle in the control panel has been corrected, funny how it was never noticed till the machine became so silent.
In any event I am done with the so lancing project for now Jon, I figure at best it will take you a year to catch up with my washers silence.

Now we have two winners!
I won't argue to see who's the 1st and who's the second place winner but both machines are probably the most silently-operating 1-18 machines that remain!
The lid gasket from a late-1960s's washer must be quite effective. I just hate how these trap moisture that eventually destroys the lids.
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">Now, I have an idea for a new projects for the appliance experts!</span>
How about making a silent and durable 1-18 dryer?!
Or
How about trying to make a quiet, durable and rust-resistant 1965-73 Frigidaire dishwasher! These machines have a great capacity that's overshadowed by some of their their flaws! I guess they are close to be the Norge 20 lbs of Dishwashers. That probably explains why Montgomery Ward sold them too! And by the way, I love them!
Both projects should be challenging!

Jon-John : you both win, but I'm curious as to what John did to claim a quieter Wanda…I mean, 1-18….
Wanda ? lol.

Well, I already looked into the claimed quietest dishwasher in the market, the Bosch and searched for their sound deadening features. The plan was to use these for my 1-18 when I find one in NYC. But Jon L, I still would love and appreciate what you used and done to make your 1-18 the "quietest".
Will it!!
You have yet to reveal up under her skirt like you promised John

Quiet 1-18 ?
It is a good thing you two were talking loudly so we could here you over the washer, but then I guess you had to to hear each other, LOL.

I can't open your link John.
The silent 1-18 Washer Link
There is actually no link, when we were trying to record our silent 1-18 washer the mike could not pickup any sound [ we need a more sensitive mike ] so we were trying to find some good background music instead, in any event we will get this together yet.

If you actually plug the machine in you might hear something. It does run on electricity.
Tsk Tsk for giving the club a false lead there....
