I hope you feel better soon. The Admirals I have seen at homo-depot did not seem especially worse or better than the rest of the stuff. I think 99% of the extra money you pay for TOL or MOL stuff in the US is probably just bling-bling and not really better quality. It is all the same stuff inside. In some cases, you are better off with the tried and true - after all, even Whirlpool improves their very worst quality sh** so they don't have to repair things under warranty. |

The new Admiral's have adopted the Whirlpool design platform, except they have a plastic tub now. |

Hi guys. My Norgetag dryer is gas and drys quickly. As for the washer, the action is gentler than a shredmore. I have no complaints about the pair. Ross |

Was in Homo Depot today and saw the "new" Admiral washers & dryers. I have to say not bad...$257.00 for a 2 speed (I think)washer with super capacity and dual action agitator ain't too hard to take. But the white inner tub looks like painted steel, not porcelain. |

In Chicago, the Home Depot stores have (what looks like)the newer-design Admiral washers. Plastic tub. Whirlpool design? (Appears so, you decide.) At least the Admiral logo has changed and is correct now. The original Admiral used at least six different "fonts" over their 40 year history. All were well done and elegant. However, Home Depot's appliances carried a garrishly distorted facsimile of Admiral's logo which I didn't particularly care for. This time, they're using the latest Admiral (Rockwell International era) logo circa approx 1975 and it looks good. (I'm hearing a resounding "WHO CARES?"... Well I do.. :) |
