Ours has the same agitator and tub-shape but the one we own has an enameled basket.

I don't know from this machine....it's something I could definitely use....
What are its attributes? Weaknesses?

The confusion, I think
came from a print ad. I don't have the ad anymore, but I remember it quite clearly:
"Why run a Maytag when you can run a Marathon?"
These are good machines, though not a favourite of mine.

Am I missing something??????I don't see the name Maytag nor any parts that attribute the same anywhere on either the washer or the dryer.Please inform me on this.
It's in the first post,
Chuck, in the Craigslist posting. Just a somewhat confused seller. Of course this is a Raytheon built Speed Queen.
Happy New Year!

Raytheon SQ Coin Operated Washers
I had a friend who lived in DC in a condo building about two blocks away from Bufont Circle. In the laundry room downstairs the machines were Raytheon built SQ's. The washers had this weird thing that I have never seen before. I swear that just about 2 inches above the agi blades was this big round thing (like a ball that had been smooshed down from the top) that was made out of the same plastic as the agi. On the top of that ball it clearly said "do not load clothes above this."
Anyone seen one of those? Was the purpose to save water. In effect that washer would hold very little.
I know I wasn't dreaming this.
