washer111..thx for the clarification...
Was just sitting here online having a browse at Fisher history, etc. I don't know where I thought there was Electrolux/Frigidaire connection. I did know there was Australian/New Zealand connection....but somehow had the idea that their US market offerings had been either licensed by or manufactured by Frigidaire Electrolux.
I cannot agree with you more re; fix/repair. There's VERY little (in the way of vintage goods, anyway) which cannot be repaired or refurbished for good serviceability. And you're dead right: "People claim new appliances are more efficient - but replacing newer stuff that doesn't last as long is far worse for the environment than "EnergyStar" appliances. Anyone ever factor in the pollution of shipping? " Not to mention the cash outlay for a new appliance which dies prematurely (where you're OUT potentially thousands of $). I'd rather buy a nice vintage fridge/dishwasher for practically nothing....and spend relatively nothing to rehab whatever small bits need tending to. Nice to keep hard-earned cash in pocket. | ||

 The washer is an EcoSmart agitator model. A Phase 7 unit, probably WA37T-something-or-other. It's capable of doing a full-fill, tap-hot wash. The dryer is DE62T-something-or-other (or DG if gas). Allen/funktionalart, F&P in the U.S. has some relation to Whirlpool. Whirlpool used F&P's SmartDrive motor and floating basket design for all Oasis/Cabrio/Bravos machines until the belt-drive VMW design came about. It's still used for the upper-end Cabrio and Bravos, AFAIK. | ||

Some F&P dryers (not this one) are made by GE. | ||
