Sure sounds great, doesn't it? It seems that they over overcame the laws of physics, but they are inviolable. Motion has to go somewhere and while they tried, they could not overcome the laws of motion in a horizontal axis cylinder spinning at high speed. Putting the two motors at the top of the tub and tipping the cylinder down at the back to encourage the distribution of the fabrics for the spin to fall under the heaviest part of the machine which was under the two motors was a brilliant attempt, but not the most successful.
The sad thing about every combination washer dryer other than the Bendix was that they could not spin adequately. AVCO, owner of Bendix tied up not only the patents for the "old way" with a suspended mechanism, they also patented the IDEA of one machine that washed and dried, the intellectual property, as it were. So not only could no other manufacturer use a suspended mechanism within the cabinet to achieve good water extraction, they had to pay AVCO a royalty on every combination they produced. Because of this, and the disappointing performance and therefore sales of the combination units, only Whirlpool, because of the wealth generated by their sales through Sears, was able to afford to re-engineer their combination unit to approach the performance of the Bendix unit in water extraction. It took, with the electromechanical components of the time, over 1600 parts to do it. John & Jeff's brother Jerry, who was then and is still a VW aficianado, counted the parts from the combo's parts diagrams and pages and came up with the total which was the same total as a VW bug of the day. The machine was far more complex than the Bendix, naturally, and took several in-field revisions and in-factory redesigns to approach a dependable and less trouble-free design than the original 29 inch machines.
I have seen the Easy operate. The rinsing is less than adequate, in spite of using lots of water during the long spray spin. The water extraction is poor. The Murray Corporation, the same company that made Murray Bicycles which so many of us and our friends had, was the same corporation that owned Easy. Later they sold to the Hupp Corporation or maybe that is reversed. Nobody invested more of their marketing hopes into combos than Easy and they lost big time. I remember the washers and dryers they made for AMC in the mid 60s and they were primitive compared to GE and Norge. It was a sad demise, BUT Easy was the first to make a TL washing machine with a motor, transmission and pump in a direct drive component similar to what Whirlpool did with the Design 2000 drive decades later.
