Series 2 washer, looks good. These don't turn up here that often. If only they had the matching dryer! Liam CLICK HERE TO GO TO liamwa's LINK |

..but I don't understand why Maytag designated this model as an "A806". These machines should have been "A808's" in line with the rest of this lesser series. The noble A806 had a blue escutcheon, a tub light and a solenoid operated bleach dispenser. The gold paneled ones are a stripped-down version of what I think was their best automatic machine of all time.

Baja, no solenoids, just connected to the pump. My only gripe with the true 06's were the small HOH dryers. The 08 dryers were much better companions to the large capacity washers, IMO. Bobby in Boston |

The bleach dispense was only delayed until the tub was full and the agitation started. It was more a means of dilluting than delaying. |
