Hello everybody...for those interested, I've posted a few pics of my Whirlpool portable washer - model WT38080.

It's a fairly good machine, although I wish the "arc" distance of the "Surgilator" agitator was more. I'm guessing it's only about 72 degrees, and it does tangle shirt sleeves quite badly. The "Super" cycle starts off with a 2-minute quick agitation, then it slows considerable for the rest of the 12-minute wash cycle.

Nice machine there Brad....never seen the whirlpool version of this style machine...
can we see a full money shot, just wondering what kind of agitator they put in there, is it a dual action style?

The agitator is Whirlpool's standard surgilator, with no corkscrew. The lint filter is the whole top part, which you lift off and run your finger underneith. These are very good, solid old direct drive units, which have been out of production for a number of years. This one is almost like the one I had around 1991.

Yeah, speaking of this model, someone from there was supposed to come get the one I have. I don't remember who was supposed to come get it though, I'm bad with names. But who ever you are, if you see this message, I still have it. Someone needs to get it I don't want the weather to ruin it, especially winter weather.

Is that the 4 cycle or 6 cycle machine?

Sent you an email, and I'm off to hide under the couch.

Norfolksouthern...
I think you can come from under the couch now. I'm not pissed or anything, I'm just bad with names. I sent you an email.
