Beautiful washers, Jed.
You can always store plastic grocery bags in the 59, until you find a rollermatic mechanism to put in it ;-)

AWESOME Just AWESOME!!!
Both of those machine are fantastic!~ I love my '60 Multi-Matic and use it every week for laundry along with the 1-18 and the Roller-Matic....But I do have to admit that the Multi-Matic outwashes the 1--18 AND the Roller-Matic.....Just wish mine was a more deluxe model with more features....Maybe one day i'll find one.....
Congratulations Jed........!! Both of those machines are awesome!

Really nice Frigidaire's guys! They are so much fun and it is nice to collect some from every generation for varied fun!
The '55 Uni is one of my absolute favorites.
Mark----I'm so glad that rare "diaper-washer" has found a good home. They were all over the place in the deep south back in the day---but very few have survived. That one did have two other siblings though.

Congrats Jed
Congrats Jed for the acquisition!
My 1963 Multimatic Frigidaire finally arrived home here in Oz last week. Need to spend a bit of time cleaning it and posting some pics.

Hey Gyrafoam, I didn't realize that my '60 Multi-Matic was called a "diaper washer" nor did I realize that it was considered "rare". hmmmmmm...good information....you mentioned that it had 2 other siblings......Were there other models similar to mine? I have the repair-master for this year machine and it lists all the different models but don't quite understand what you meant my "2 other siblings". Also would anyone know what the model number would be for the matching dryer for this model year that I have.....the model number is WD-60.......
I would appreciate any information that anyone could provide....Thanks!

Very nice Jed. Thanks for the photos. Was the original rinse agent dispenser still in the grey plastic dispenser? The 59 will be a fun machine to have around once you get it finished. And your 55 looks great as well! I'm sure the turn over with the gyrafoam agitator was disturbing
Robert's scan of the Tech Talk article should prove incredibly useful in the up coming weeks.

One of my favorite parts of the recently scanned doctrine:
"COMMON AGITATOR COLUMN:
ALL MODELS
The same basic three ring agitator column and components,
Figure 6, are common to all 1959 models.
These consist of the gray plastic dispenser, the yellow
neoprene "Lint Chaser" ring, the coral neoprene "Circulator"
ring and the turquoise neoprene cap. In addition,
described next are additional components which
arc standard equipment on Imperial and Custom Imperial
models only.
