Whoa! You could stop it while it was agitating? I never thought you could do that.
Na,i couldn't stop the Norge from agitating. Agitation on those machines was powerful.

1, 2, 3, 5, & 6 for me! Actually still "smell" the tub for any lingering detergent from the last cycle, and stick my hand in the bottom of the tub during agitation to "feel the surge", LOL!
What I did most, however, was changing the speed on the washer mid-cycle, especially during agitation. Since the White-Westinghouse and "Plastic GE" did not use a clutch, it didn't hurt it, but did make some strange noises...;-)
I also lifted the lid as much as the lock would allow on the WW and watch the final spin. I do remember turning the timer to "OFF" so I could watch the tub slow down with the lid open.

I was tiresomely good as a child.**
of all the great ideas above, all I did was smell the tub after a load was completed.
I did, once, remove the big metal cap of the Super Surgilator, and got one of my few spankings for it, but that was it.
Always preferred a Maytag's safety switch, which can be defeated, than the WhirlMore's (which at the time we had one,) could not be defeated.
Ah, memories!

Sigmond Freud
Yes Jason, Sigmond Freud would have had us locked away. His constant Physco Theraputic methods would not have worked on this one!!!!
Great again all you folks for participating in my thread. This is too cool.
PS, I just finised a load in the Kenmore HE3T, I am going to go smell the tub right now and give is a whirl for some draft sensation!!!!

The agitator is an extension of the lady's husband's penis. It may either pulsate or rock back and forth in soapy water creating suds and cleansing the clothes. Wives are attracted to the mechanical agitator as it reminds them of their husband's penis or single women will be reminded of the penis of the man that they lust after.
Young males who have penis envy will be attracted to the mechanical device and they will touch and play with the machine and the agitator as of way of dealing with their penis envy and the subconsious jealousy and hatred for their father. The prepubescent male will find his own sexual refuge in the agitator driven washer as a way to coerce his mother into sex by offering to do her laundry. With that state of mind, he is copulating with his mother subconsiously through the sloshing of the washing machine.

Sounds "anal rententive to me" (snicker)
huhu huhu I said "Penis"

So if a top loader is male,
Then a front loader is a female.
Oh boy
Freud could write a book about this. We stick our arms in the warm open hole. And what about calling the washer "Hettie?"
Umm.. But I'm digging my hole deeper because my washer was named Sir Frigemore.. a male :-O

I guess Freud could have really had a field day over which "VANE" one prefers. undulated or staight. LOL!
Or--
What might the good Doktor make of the "dual action" variety?
Love and laughter!

Freud on crack. (Rock, on the west coast)
No wonder some of us get twisted- (speaking for myself only, of course, LOL)
Shoudn't the water technically show up after (not before)the agitation?

Lubricant
The water is the liquid that the female produces before sex.
What about agitators with fabric softener dispensors, how it just oozes out after the first spin?

thought I would ask--Does anyone form "air bubbles" in large items-sheets,tablecloths,ete to see how long the bubble lasts?Ie when the air reaches the edge of the item.
Never did that purposely, but I did 'squish' them trying to get rid of them. I recall the 1962 Whirlpool had trouble with rolling bubbled sheets. A typical 6-minute wash wouldn't take care of it without some help.
Interesting that both F&Ps do pretty well with rolling sheets.

I do recall that the Dual-Action agitator had some trouble with air bubbles, surprisingly, but was able to get them out eventually. The DD Surgilator is the same; not the best but not the worst either. The Power-Fin's ability to remove air bubbles depends on the size of the load, but usually gets all of the air out 99% of the time--If not I just set it for another rinse. The Roto-Swirl does probably the best job of the oscillating agitators; it is the only machine that can roll the sheets with the air bubbles still in them, if they haven't dissolved already.
In my opinion, however, the 1-18 is king. Air bubbles are no match for the surging pulsator action and dissolve right at the start of wash and rinse. The load I photographed and posted was a set of my sheets; these are "heavy" compared to the others and bubble easily. But, as you can see, no air bubbles were present in either the wash or the rinse.

I was washing some sheets a couple of days ago. I find the DAA is probably the best i have used for getting those air bubbles out.
In the two machines I have the WP Imperial thrashes them for a little while then pulls the bubbles down and they come back up again unless the air comes out of the edge.One time it came from the edge so much-it sprayed the suds and water at me.
In the rachet action DA I have it eventually squeezes the air from under the item.Esp noticable during rinse -after the washer fills the incoming water seems to "inflate" and make air pockets.You can hear them go "blub" and splash when the air goes out.sort of interesting.I can remember "Roto-Swirls" handle the iar pockets well.Need to get a RS agitator to experiment with in the WP Imperial.Lately the swap shop hasn't had any.Usually they were easy to find.
