What's with that God-awful floor in your basement?

horrible floor

The floor was what we moved in to back in 1998. Until I gave myself permission to bring home and keep some of my vintage favorites, I didn't spend much time down there. I scraped that floor up with a 4" razor blade, inch by inch until it was gone. I'm not sure the painted floor is much better, but it's not brown vinyl!

LOl

Fred I am glad you said it. But I was thinking it OY! Parchese flooring!

Fred!

You leave Greg alone, LOL!

There are worse floors out there - and I should know, because I'm living with one in my kitchen. It's sort of cream and Harvest Gold, and even when it was "In," it was fugly.

You can see a glimpse of it here in this shot of the cat, Tony, who owns the house I am a guest in:

Here Are Some Fun Pictures

Of the 906 brochures.  BTW Greg - I love what you did to the basement.  Thank God you got rid of that floor.  Greg knows how to stage vintage washers.  This is a shot of the 906s in Greg's basement after the makeover.

And

The dryer - mine is electric and I had to rewire the laundry room to accomodate it.

And A Shot

Of the washer hooked up and running.  Chrome and lights, even inside the machine.  This machine was lightly used and well taken care of.

We actually had that floor in a bathroom once. I'm not sure who thought that was a good idea, but undaunted, my mother pulled out the Sears catalog. We had dark brown rugs & lid cover, trash can, kleenex box, cups, shower curtain (with decorative dangling balls) - it was so very late 70's. When we looked at the house before buying it, I was horrified to see that floor again.

What a pretty thread ! ~ Thank you, Gentlemen!

Can't wait till Saturday when Dan comes home and we go LIVE with a movie.

I love that the Bright Colors cycle is such a fancy upscale name for the more common Cold Water Wash ;'D

And Bob would love that it's a full 10 minutes rather than the usual lightweight 6.

Like eating a bag or delicious taffy in all different flavors.
lite blue = blue berry
pink = strawberry
yellow = bannana

906s were just fun.
