hey fellow club members I may have my dream machine in my mists. I had a customer come into the store on Monday to purchase a new washer and dryer. I asked her what she had and she said it was a Magic Chef washer and dryer they both worked but she said the washer was noisy and the dryer took to long to dry. Delivery guys are going to save the washer for me I hope it is a burpalator. from what years did Norge build that machine for Magic Chef? my customer said the tub was huge.

I've had a couple of these in the garage over the years. They sure can wash a big load in that cavernous tub. I had one that was a BOL machine with water temps on the dial and two water levels. Depending on the age and model, some of the baskets are epoxy coated, not porcelain and I saw a few that the epoxy was falling off in sheets, leaving behind rusty steel. Nice.
Have fun with it, they are ruthless agitators and the "loud" operating sounds is music to many of our ears. |

mine still has the porclen tub the model number is W20HN2 SERIAL EC210473. The agitator unscrews just like the wards looks like the same agitator but without the holes in the bottom. Another tag on the machine says Magic Chef Cleveland Tennessee trying to figure out if this was a Norge built machine. it does have a fabric dispenser that sits on top of the agitator.

just to bring everyone up to speed, hope to have my machine by the middle of next week. I ran off a copy of the owners manual today, in the features was the following self cleaning lint filter, porclin tub but plastic outer tub, the instructions say that with the way the holes are designed in the inner tub that when it goes into spin the lint is held in the outer tub untill the washer drains. i still would like to find a burpalator agitator with the lint catcher to put on the machine. there is a guy on you tube that has the exact washer that i am getting. it is under Magic Chef 20 lb washer. the fact that it is a norge built washer I'm happy my foster mom had a Norge in 1971.

Iam running a second load of wash as we speak. during agitation it sounds just like the norge my foster mom had in the 70's. have to get use to the brake to stop the tub pics to follow soon, the burpalator agitator with the lint bowl will work with my machine if anyone has one for sale hit me back I want to switch it out. thx Mike
