Chicnken-hawks take notice, please. 
No dear, you are a young spring chicken. She was conceived when her father was 14. That pic of you above proves it! YAY lights dials and "tumble agitators." Patented? WHY WHAT WHEN HOW! Congrats on a fabulous job! I just realized the drying blower generates a positive pressure (blows in). Does this create a lint issue as does the say Wards Singature or Norge brand dryer that does the same and are famous for flocking one's walls? | ||

Hi Scott Hi Steve
The cycle takes about 30 minutes for wash and on a full load of cottons like today it took 55 minutes to dry. Steve the lint is not a problem when the condenser spray is working properly as the stream pulls the lint from the air into the water and is pumped away. The heater box gets flushed out on every fill cycle so that lint is gone too. The flaw in this machine was the condenser spray was not collecting the lint and the leaking heater box forced the user to stop doing wash in it so that lint never got cleaned out. That is why this machine was sooo clogged with lint. When I opened up my 1958 Keyboard machine the whole thing was spotless after 50 years of washing and drying together. So combos need to be used for what they were built for the complete cycles. Offtobed its been a big day cheers. Oh I'll post one more pic>> the next project just got its trial test today and passed with flying colors:enjoy

Jon, I only know you as a washer man not a family man, but if Vanna's not your daughter, certainly she must be a niece. The resemblance is striking: the eyes and brows, the shape of the face, the smile. Also, you're going to make me a front loading man inspite of myself. You see, I've never really "gotten" front loaders, dismissing them as glorified dryers. But I must say that Miss Duomatic is a strikingly beautiful washing machine. Love to know what the patented agitator looks like that is different from the usual front load mechanism. Taking a wild stab: Your niece Vanna is beautiful ! | ||

Hey Diomede, Mike, Mikey, and Tom
What is the "sciuga" after lava? Lava = wash Sciuga =? Does that mean dryer?? Yes I agree Combos' are magic. Especially Bendix because they were the first so they had the simplest mechanism which is why they were so successful. Mike I have to have them all lined up for Jeff & Cal next month so they will definetly be ready for you in the Fall YAY! Mikey The patented agitator was 2 short ribs and 2 tall ribs interspaced so that this created an uneven tumbling and breaks up the rhythym which stops the tangling and knotting other machines have. Because Bendix patented this the commercial machines were forced to patent the reverse tumble to prevent tangled balls of clothing. Ever see a Slant Front Westinghouse wash?? Tangle tangle tangle! Hi Tom: The only difference I see between the EU washer/dryer and these american washer/dryers is about 55 years of technology and capacity. But EU machines are starting to come up to larger capacities these days. I do find the Bendix Condenser system works much better than any other condenser system I have used in EU or Asian machines. Combos rock! jon | ||
