Here's some photos of the '58's maiden wash. We went to the warehouse and spent the night Saturday. Got a few things worked on and here's one of them! |

Beautiful, Mark! That pregnant roto swirl sure does kick up the suds. Love the dark shot of the ozone light. Les |

Mark I found I can prevent sudslocking my '57 Lady by using vintage Dash or Fresh Start detergent. Washing lightweight items like button down shirts, non-jean pants and sheets usually wont suds lock even with lots of billowing suds. But I avoid washing heavyweight items like thick towels in this machine, I have never been able to prevent suds locking with towels in this machine no matter what detergent I try, so its best to save those items for a Frigidaire.

I get suds lock on my 64 GE Filter-Flo,or the 58 Maytag with Cold Water Tide. Too much suds in any Tide these days... Tried them all. I can wash even heavy towels in my 65 Kenmore,with Fab,or Purex without any suds lock problems. The 56 Whirlpool will suds lock on heavy towels however,no matter what detergent is used however. The Surgilator just kicks up too much suds,so I do not use that machine for towels anymore.Sure is great for heavy blue jeans though! Towels are washed in the Filter-Flo and the 65 Kenmore around here. Mark, those 58 Lady Kenmores are just wonderful! Glad you got them going,and were able to photograph them in action for us. Perhaps they will "grow on you" and if not,you could always "ReBay" them and get your $$$$ back. You sure have a great collection. Thanks again for sharing! |

Awesome Mark. Such a beautiful set. They'll grow on ya. And as the commercial says, AD or Dash with controlled suds. So run out to the A&P and get a box or two. No more suds lock!! Actually with our 1970 Kenmore 800, towels and undies were about the only load that caused a suds lock and that was with All with Bleach, Borax, and Brighteners or Fresh Start. Since I was always with the machine watching it, when the suds lock occurred, I raised the lid and let it stop spinning and immediately started the spin again or I'd push in the timer and let it stop then restart it and no more suds lock. Got full speed spin for those spray rinses. And get this, it would kinda "suds lock" after the rinse because of Downey. |
