Whirlpool BD has to go

I have very limited space, so this machine has to take one for the team. Send email if interested.

Nice washer, but I live in Texas.

 

[amyswasher]

That's no magic clean.

Good observation!! I got this machine ~2004. I have not used it very much. I added the splash guard with that filter, because the machine was boring without it. The FS dispenser came with this machine. This is the only machine that I have seen with this. Yes, it is a very nice machine, but now I have 3 Whirlpool BD's. It is either this machine or my Maytag commercial neptune.

I don't think LA5700XKN0 is the right model number.  Per a parts lookup, LA5700XK is standard capacity and has rotary temp control.

LA7500XKN0, maybe?

I would love it...

But how to get to OH lol. That is similar to what my grandmother had. That started everything for me.

I remember that FS dispenser. It was the neatest thing, but it took up so much space, it was hard to load the clothes with it on. My mom would throw a fit it we took it off.

 

[supremewhirlpol]

any takers?

Waiting.

If it becomes parts, I'd be interested in a few. I'm waiting, however, because I hate parting out machines when they could be made usable.

If you do part it out, I want dibs on the softner dispenser, the splash guard with the filter and the bleach bezel....please!

 

[volvoguy87]

Agitator.

If it comes down to parting, I'll take the agitator, maybe the tubs, and the centerpost.

BrianL,
Are you interested?

Parting this machine out means that I would have to do extra work + shipping the parts + more time need to do it = not possible now. It will either go to a good home, or to my junk man.

 

[brianl]

I would love it!

You can count me in for the entire machine. I would love to have a working Imperial. It can take place of my working Supreme next to my 60's RCA Whirlpool. I can then give the Supreme a rest and then deal with the "well abused" Supreme in the garage which looks like it's gonna need to be parted Too far gone unfortunately.

Hey Dave & Martin

If you are interested in Whirlpool parts, I have Supreme that was way too far gone to restore (inner tub has rust and I think that outer too, etc.) When I get around to breaking it down, I may be able to send a few parts your way. Mine does not have the waterfall filter though. My Supreme in the basement works great, but this one was left out in the winter for a couple months and was very abused so I gotta call my losses on it.

 

[volvoguy87]

Agi.

I would love to have a Whirlpool agitator to play with. I have regular capacity tall-centerpost Kenmores and large capacity short-centerpost Kenmores. I would love to compare the WP vs. the Kenmore equivelant in both sizes.

I would like a softner dispenser, bleach bezel, and the snubber if you have these available....let me know

Thanks

Martin

 

[supremewhirlpol]

I get the feeling that there is some confusion here. To those who are requesting parts from me to take off this machine, please read post#462101.

 

[brianl]

Sorry Melvin

I think I might have confused things. After mentioning that I will take the whole machine, I had mentioned to Dave and Martin that I have an old WP Supreme that will need to be parted out due to non-restore-able abuse from the previous owner. Since I noticed they showed interest before you mentioned no parting out of the WP Imperial, I was offering up parts from my abused WP Supreme. I believe that was what their posts were in reference to. Sorry about the confusion. I would like to coordinate with you through private e-mail on when and how to retrieve the machine.

Thanks,
Brian

Brian,
I can hold the machine until the weather gets cold. Also keep in mind that it is covered with a tarp, and is sitting outside. I just took it out of the shed to make room for the LRA 992 2 weeks ago.

I would like a softner dispenser, bleach bezel, and the snubber if you have these available....let me know

OR, if you want Brian maybe we can meet somewhere and I could take the machine off you, and send Dave the parts he needs.....whatever works for you....

Thanks

Martin

Martin--I will have to check the condition of some of these parts as I think a lot was in crummy condition. In either case, I think I will be alright taking it apart, but thanks anyway.

Melvin--I agree totally, I would like to get it much sooner than when it gets cold. Where exactly in Ohio are you located?
