I am tripping on this find, even though these are way too new for me.
Been looking for a Vorpulator for my Touch n' Wash for months, Smitty sends me one, and I find these the next day...

I will have "stereo" Vorps very soon...

When I was growing up my friend's mom had a MW washer just like this one but in avocado green. It sure got a work out she had 4 kids herself and her husband to do laundry for.

I had already switched the vorpulator with the Monkey Norge non-burp, but sat the lint filter and dispenser on top for the shot.

The washer just hums, so it needs work. It was also full of black water, and had sat that way for years. it came out of the basement of a huge 5 bedroom house. This house had 3 sets of washer/and dryers hooked up. The others were newer KM's These were the oldest, and were in the basement.

Hi Matt. I have no idea if the dryer works. I know the washer does not. I will not keep these for myself.

Very interesting pair - the MW is a deluxe model, prolly a lighted dial?

Still more interesting is the "Hamilton" dryer. Is there any indication on the model-tag who made it, Rick? Have you already figured it out?

Cool!
I've never seen the old style bleach dispensers. I assume they just dump the bleach between the tubs?

Hi Greg, I don't know who made the dryer, but I would guess Fedders?? The colour and cabinet style are so close...
The dial does light up btw.

Hi Bobby, I would guess that the bleach dumps between the tubs. The thing slides out like a drawer. Very simple, and kind of cheap.

That fabric softener dispenser looks pristine. Did the spare arrive in one piece? Nice Hamilton too..

The Hamilton is interesting, it does not look like one. No top pilot ignition door, no perforated drum. But, the door looks Hamilton, rectagular window. And it appears that there may be a bottom lint trap. If the lint trap is at the bottom of the machine, it's a Hamilton. BTW, the Hamilton I found last fall found a home in Cleveland, was fixed and has gotten rave reviews from a very exacting collector. You don't see one very often, but they are treasures. matt
