Hi Guys - well, you know I'm NEVER over here in the turquoise! - its not bad - but I prefer the pink!

anyway - I saw the post by impala276 wanting to see the 1991 GE washer line and I happened to have the catalog. I found a bunch of other catalogs as well from those early 90's - Hotpoint, RCA, Frigidaire, Whirlpool, Amana, Maytag, ISE, Kenmore, Kitchen Aide...

I will scan more as I go along but thought I'd share these first...

Enjoy!
Matthew

Let's say thank you first!

Wonderful brochure, I don't think we saw a GE brochure from that era here before. I love looking at all the features the TOL models had.

I always wondered why GE had a different design of the bottom front for the dryer than for the washer. Even though you get the matching machines they never totally look like a matching set. Wonderful appliances though, matching or not.

I sure hope you are willing to post the rest of this brochure too if it's not too much.

Thanks!

Louis

One of my sisters in Denver has the 5800 washer - near BOL that replaced a mid-70's Hotpoint, also near BOL.

She had some trouble with the water valve but I walked her through the repair and other than that, it's been a fine machine.

The Spotscrubber system was a very cool feature, it used a pinch-valve to shut off the Filter-Flo stream and a Mini-Basket with no holes in the bottom to keep the water from running out (as normal MB's did for recirculation) and those who have used it, say it works very well.

Thank you SOOOOOOO much for posting these. When did GE stop using the FF pans, and make the other type filter that Hotpoint used? I remember looking at the last of these GE's in 1995 and none of them had filter flo then. Needless to say I was surprised to see them in these pics from the 1991 models.

How well did

the Mini-Basket (such a name!) work? I don't know about it, it looks like something that I would either hate or love, and if I hated it, I would just wash the item(s) by hand.

Thank you for scanning this interesting brochure!
