I hurried over to pick up this free GE washer & dryer that I saw on Craigslist in the middle of the thousand other things to do before leaving for the wash-in today so I snapped some quick pics for you guys to see it. Yes, it's almond - Austin's favorite! I'm giving it to a good friend of ours, her daughter will take it in May for an apartment at college in Wyoming. I haven't had a chance to clean or test it, we'll do that when we come home next week.

BTW
I would post pictures of the dryer but it's already on it's way to China, crushed into a bale of other scrap metal to be used for exciting "Watch for falling prices" merchadise at WalMart. Erica didn't need it, I didn't need it so it didn't even get to come home. I did keep all the books and documemtation though, the original owners kept everything - even the stickers from the top of the the machines! Look at what else was in with the GE literature. This must have been what the GE's replaced. I wish they were still there!

Very nice GE. My great aunt had that exact model years ago. I only saw it once, and only because i snuck off to check it out in the basement. I remember the lack of holes in the tub...I thought it was odd. My sister's Filter Flo has that deeper FS dispenser. Works pretty well. The filter flo stream hits directly onto the outside of it, with all of its force. It looks like it would almost flood out the inside...but it just hits and gushes right back into the filter pan. I have never noticed anymore than a drop or 2 getting inside the actual dispenser. Those GE folks sure knew what they were doing!! LOL. What year ya'll reckon this is??

Great Washer!! Looking at the pics...it looks like the filter flo nozzle is upside down? This machine will clean up nicely and continue to be a workhorse for years to come. | ||

Thanks- I have a blue one with matching filter and mini basket - I guess I will have to try to take off the activator. | ||

If you want my advice...
...and really, no one does, try to find a spiral ramped activator with matching mini-basket(if you want one). Or better still, keep the activator you have for when you want to use a mini-basket. The filters will fit every activator. None of the straight-vane activators works better and/or produces even close to the amount of rollover than the spiral activator, I don't care what anyone says.

Nate you will be SLAPPPPPEDDD!
Well on second thought maybe I do need that filter-flo action! My socks are a disaster! I really believe I am the victim here though, new towels and flannel sheets. The lintiest things ever! I can't get my head around the idea I can't do laundry especially after all these years of successful party dressing and NO SPOTS!. Nice GE Greg, LOTS of buttons and the appropriate Mini Basket cycle! Too many times I have seen the Mini start wash buried in the large wash cycle, this machine has the seperate cycle! VERY PROPER! Nate you still better be ducking and running! jet | ||

Jon - those new towels will do you in every time - it takes many many washes to get rid of that lint. Of course that is where the filter flo excels. All that nasty stuff gets caught and doesn't go down the drain or redeposited on other stuff. | ||
