My great-grandother had an older Marquette machine with this type agitator. Was the most annoying thing ever. If I lifted the lid, the machine would stop dead, even while filling. So I never got to see it. Just listened and watch it throw water on the floor. | ||

the console so, did they literally just take the original console and stick it on the cheap machines? To me it looks very similiar to something from say the mid 70s. Sorry not proficient in Frigidaire here yet. | ||

Yes Bostonwash...
There were a lot of GM and WCI 1-18s lurking around the Phoenix lot where we went in May, and it's obvious that WCI inherited a lot of tooling or already-stamped heads and cabinets from the GM machines. The only difference that was notable between the WCI and GM Frigidaire exteriors was the absence of the GM logo (and later, a little "Energy Saver" sparkly and a differently scripted Frigidaire logo). On looking inside, however, you'd see either a nice Jet-Cone pulsator (GM) or one of WCI's myriad funky agitators (maybe a ramp, maybe a straight-vane, maybe an angel-wing, or maybe even an oddball one that looked like a one-piece, faux Dual-Action). It's very depressing to spot what looks like a GM Frigidaire 1-18 in profile, only to pop open the lid and see the stupid WCI innards. ARGH! Frigilux has had good commentary of the shared and different features of the GM and WCI 1-18s that were around at the time of ownership transition. --Nate | ||

They had lids that locked when the machine was in the spin cycle. The lid could only be opened if the machine had been stopped for a minute or so. | ||
