A good friend of mine had one exactly like that model in his barn. His wife drove her big SUV in and crashed right into the wash tub, mashing the porcelain in and ruining it. He ended up putting it by the side of the road and it was gone in minutes. I would have loved to have it if it could have been made usable again.

So folks.... The price they're asking is $225? (heading to PA this weekend) Would I be able to lay it on it's side to transport it? Thinking that if it was still available to either take the wagon or the van for ease of bringing it home... I'm torn!!!! |

You go, Steve! Get thee to eastern Calfornia. Take the wagon and lots of fluffy blankets & quilted bedspreads - it'll travel fine.
It's a pristine beauty. I know the thrill. After all, I did score me a 1935 Air-Way DirtMastR this fall. They are as rare as the Easy Spin. You'll remember me from the Columbus Vacuum Meet while you & Brian were visiting from Aus, deciding to move here. |

Thank you for saving me from this, I mean saving this machine. I reeeeaalllyy gave this a lot of thought, even though I already have one, mine is not new unused. It is a fun machine to use and you will enjoy it. I'm glad it's going to a deserving new home. Bill |

Glad you got it home safe and sound. It looks like it just came from the dealership showroom. |

Main power cord, it's pretty ordinary... Everything else seems fine, just the power cord looks dangerous... |

Oh, I have not worked on many Easy Spin-Dry machines, but it looks like you may have to remove the motor to replace the cord properly.
It was generally much harder to work on older appliances, although they were usually easy to get older things apart but much harder to get them back together again.
Today the challenge is often getting them apart without breaking the item, but the neat thing is newer appliances just go back together very easily, this is because today engineers design things to be assembled quickly and efficiently so it often amazes me how easily things go back together that you struggled with to take apart.

On our Spin-Drier, the cord meanders to the on/off - speed control section on the control panel that's held in place with springs. Getting in there is a beeyatch. Do some of these go to the motor first? The wires would have to wander through those switches before heading to the motor, no?
On ours, taking the top off the tubs helps a lot. But the faucets make it a super PITA. Come to think of it, doing just about anything on a Spin-Drier is a super PITA, but they're so lovely when they run. |

Late congrats on this clean looking Easy. Though not a fan of the earlier washers, they always generate a smile, especially the shape of these. I'm surprised at the size - it's not a big as it photographs; makes sense for the smaller homes most had in the 40's/50's and early 60's. Best wishes- hope the cord replacement happens without too much difficulty.
