I wonder what it would take to convert it from an HE to a non-HE machine? | ||

agreed i wonder wat language the washers software is coded in since you can order the older cabrio's agitator and just reprogram the water level sensor so that it fills more would be a perfect machine ...... pic of agitator below if the it can be recoded it would make a cool non he washer

You fly 747s? Fascinating. I watched Pan Am training flights off Diamond Head, Oahu in the late 60s. I flew Cessnas and Pipers until it got too expensive.
Repost in Super. As I understand, it gets more traffic than Deluxe, even though this would otherwise be the correct forum for a modern washer. Cross posting is discouraged but as you're only trying to find a home for it free I don't think anyone would object. | ||

? Where did I say I was willing to ship it to the Caribbean? I would think you would know if its direct drive or belt, no? And Im giving it away because Im a nice guy. And its an HE washer, I would say most HE washers today have issues with water levels. Dont you think so,dude? | ||

Bob, I haven't a clue what the motive might be for nasty emails. What could possibly be the ulterior motive for GIVING AWAY working laundry equipment? If those came from within the membership then I'm embarrassed for the membership.
Yes the Cabrio has issues, hardly any "modern" machine hasn't and it's by no means a secret. How does that plus "free" qualify as ulterior? I just don't get it. My brother was in school to become a 727 pilot, but the industry changed and the platform was retired from US transport service. He ended up a top-10-market deejay making much more money (until the format changed 3 years ago) but his heart was really in the '27. My heart was in the Ampex ACR25 but that got retired too. :( . | ||

Whats wrong with people today?
Have we reached the point in life where we can no longer accept a gift???
What an ungrateful bunch surely if someone in good grace offers a machine working or not then it should be accepted as such? Its a shame you do not have the Freecycle websites we have in the UK an offer like yours would have resulted in a full mail box :) I hope you won't become dissalusioned by your response! Austin | ||

FYI for those interested, I have picked up both machines from Bob, who happened to be a really nice guy to meet, and who I hope will stay on and join our group....
they are two beautiful machines, in superb shape, and work wonderfully, Bob granted easy access to get them, and his hospitality was to be admired for many of us.... the offset of a few members with their nastygrams leaves little to be desired....and gives a bad reputation to US members and AutomaticWasher.... and makes one wonder, if your that damn paranoid over what anyones intent is when searching out appliances and such....then why would you inquire about it in the first place......best to just stay home, off the phone and the internet..... it makes you question as to how many new members we would have, and have lost, over nonsense like this.... I asked Bob to take a look around, and stay with our group, even join in a mini-meet here and there, and see for himself, not all of us are like that......ARE WE? for the most part, I got two great machines, and the best part, a new friend.....priceless! | ||

A kind offer that happily was taken up on!
Those are good machines. The first looks to be the belt driven replacement for the direct drive washer. A good machine once you get used to how it works. Bob, thanks for your kind offer and please know that the few wingnuts you got email from do not represent the majority. I sincerely hope you stay and enjoy this wonderful site!
If anything, pass those emails along to Webmaster Robert. He will deal with the issue maybe a little kinder than the waiting mob. Well... Maybe not... LOL! I have always been a fan of the turboprop airliners that a airline that used to be called Air California flew in the late seventies to early eighties. For some reason, the name of the plane escapes me at the moment. Darn getting old... RCD | ||

Forgive me if I am out of line here.....
I am aware of the names of the two persons who sent the emails......amazing, they run their mouths in an email, and cowards to show themselves here, and yet their part of us......this really leaves a bad taste for AWO, and the sad part, we lose good natured members to things like these types of attacks....all too often....and yet the bad apples lose what the true meaning of AutomaticWasher is all about...
for anyone else in the future, take a hint, if your representing AWO in any email or message, keep your NASTY button intact....there can be no reason for needing it, or wanting it around by anyone.....how may times has something like happened, and never mentioned here..... Idiotic Childish Behavior is all it mounts to....Grow the F**K UP! Sorry for the rant guys....I have a great respect for the members of AWO, you are some of the greatest people I have come to know, we share ideas, have a few laughs, learn new stuff, and offer advice......its a wonderful place to visit....let's keep it a safe enjoyable place to visit, either in cyberspace, or at a wash-in......the excitement of it all is out of this world.....hate to see it get ruined..... | ||

Sorry to hear about the bad experience but it sounds like you had a good experience with a good person (Martin) and that hopefully made up for the frustration. Trading back and forth among members is a long tradition in this group and one of the great things about meeting up with others who share the same interests. Don't let a couple of people ruin what otherwise is a good thing, they're not worth the time of day.
