Nice machines! I have always been amazed by that agitator. People never realized that there was a filter in it. I have seen a few so loaded with lint that there was a smell in the washer. A friend of mine had a Frigidaire washer with this agitator and she asked me to unload her "new machine". She got it 2nd hand and I just checked it and sure enough it was full of lint. I had to get the lint off and clean the filter. She had no idea. I think there was no mention of there even being a filter in the manual or in the literature for the machines. I also remember that here in the States the agitator wasnt even billed as being 2 in 1 like the old Deep Ramp Westinghouse designed agitator.
