I have two favorites. I got a brand new Maytag/Whirltag and also a used front load GE "Fridgemore". They both perform great. Ross | ||

GE Harmony Just bought this set three months ago. DW loves the larger capacity and how well it cleans. Me, I think the washer's fun to watch, and the flying T-shirt icons are the ultimate in laundro-techno geekery! | ||

Kitchenaid and/or Whirlpool Audio Shot Would like to collect a decent audio demo of either or both modern classic top loader machines, as I would like to enjoy their particular sounds in agitation, spinning, etc.--Laundry Shark | ||

Yes, those Crosleys are in fact Neptunes, based, it would seem, on the Neptune 5500b mechanics/electronics. I didn't know that Crosley was a name that Whirlpool/Maytag owned. I had heard that the solid door Neptune line would be rebadged as Amanas, though. Once you replace the motor, motor controller, main board, and spider, these are good washers :-) | ||

Yep, the Neptunes were rebadged under the Amana brand-name. They are called the Amana "Enlighten". | ||

If looks count...
The Frigidaire Affinity in metallic slate blue; the older Kitchenaid Duet clone in dark metallic gray/platinum (kind of Rolls-Roycey), the Samsung whateveritis in brilliant metallic dark red, Whirlpool Cabrio HE in metallic gray (I think) and clear, untinted window lid. And, even though the pricing is repulsive, the stainless steel flat front trophy laundry room Kitchenaids with Duet HT guts. Let's face it folks, in terms of washer styling, we've entered into another Golden Age, similar to that of the late 50's/early 60's. Unfortunately all the money is going into HE washers, and then mostly front loaders, but still - they've stopped being boring white (or bisque or black) commodities and have regained some measure of glamour. Style thumbs down to (and this is only my opinion): the square door Frigidaire Affinity washers, the toilet seat Bosch Nexxt, those weird overly rounded last gasp solid door Maytag Neptunes, F&P's with those slanted plastic full width lids (who said you're not supposed to use the washer top for storage???), and the Kenmore HE/HT5's in that blaring orange "Sedona". Sorry if I dinged one you own or one of your favorites... just my personal opinion. | ||
