Ahh.. this brings back memories.. I had the WWRE model, the TOL model with mechanical controls. I don't think they sold the digital control panel versions in Canada, I never saw them...
When it wasn't ripping my sheets, it did a good job of washing clothes. I had no idea that this was one of the last washers GE made before they were mandated to make water levels considerably lower.
I have to admit, I really like the look of these machines. The chrome ringed mechanical knobs are a nice touch, as well as the Colour guide on the control panels, to ensure I picked the right settings for what I was going to use.
I used the handwash cycle a few times and the casuals cycle for more sensitive fabrics, it was the only four speed machine I ever owned. (Handwash, Delicate, Casual and normal)
I wish I had seen this brochure back in 2004.. I probably would have bought one of the electronic control panelled models.
