End of Story AND a Suds-Return Duel between " a UNAMATIC an a ackwa Lady K" ;'D |
[Down to Last] |  |

When the lady died, the man was sad and he felt comforted working on his new and barely used Unimatic, always trying to disguise it as a Norge. Doing so reminded him of his beloved wife and relieved his grief for a while, bringing a smile to his face. And one day he forgot that the Uni was spinning because it is so quiet and at 1140 rpm's, it becomes almost invisible. When he reached in to do some agitator work, the whirling tub got him and he went to bliss to join his wife. (I will spare you the Coroner's details .) Their grown children pushed the Frigidaire aside, right next to the Norge, covered them where they remained for 50 years. As you may imagine, the children send all of their laundry out, and have never owned a washing machine. And that is the story of how two washers remained in perfect condition. This pic is dedicated to Mark Lighted Controls who taught me to adore machines that light up. So now i have a portable lighted control that I can use with the machines which are not so gifted.

Mike, you are a trip! The soft focus combined with the settings results in a dreamlike/fantasy effect. Thanks for the entertainment! | ||

The Lady Kenmore looks like a sweet machine. I wish they made machines like that today.Both the Lady Kenmore,and the Unimatic have something that most machines today don't have,and that is individuality,class,and QUALITY. | ||

I agree completely, Jim
It is the individuality I miss most. I've linked the Suds-saver directions on p22. from the Owner's Manual selection on the main page of AWorg. The Uni is the king of flexibility in that you can save wash, rinse, overflow-any water you want. But for automatic suds-saving Whirlpool/Kenmore wrote the book. Had a party on May 10th with about 50 people, and the Aqua Lady K was the talk o' the town. Since you're a Sears man, you can appreciate the difficulty in a forced choice between a Unimatic and a Lady Kenmore. They both reek of class, and I'm not choosing.

Hi Ben Hi Jim--thanks for stoppin' in
BEN--you're telepathy is at full charge. In Robert's thread you spoke of the washer Gods, and in the up-coming story what you do is so in synch with them, it's almost as if you read my mind. JIM-- thanks so much. Instinct and intuition had me thinking that somehow the Canadian Sears might have them timer, but your suggestion seems wiser. Worked for Addressograhp/Multigraph back in the day, and we threw nothing out. There were several floors in the bldg full of "old stock" Wonder what happened to that as standard business practice. Thanks again, Gentlemen. | ||
