Agitation: The stroke is long and slow, similar to the older Maytags. The tub indexes counterclockwise. Rollover is good, provided you don't overload. Very gentle. |

Overall, not a bad pair of machines. They were a bargain, and no worse in quality than any Whirlpool made machine. Bobby in Boston |

Bobby, nice shots, best of luck with them, The SS drum is a great idea no chips no rust. My washer is a couple of clicks down from yours, I have always been happy with its performance. alr2903 |

Congrats on your purchase, Bobby. I have the same washer and dryer---but where did you buy them to get a SS dryer drum? That's excellent! Certain things about the washer annoy me (maximum water level, no perm-press cool down), but otherwise it's really not a bad machine at all. No hyper-fast agitation, YAY! And you can't beat the price. It's fun to watch the clothes go 'round, isn't it? |

Frigilux: I bet your dryer has a turn to start knob. Notice how they changed it to a push button with the later SS drum models. Bobby in Boston |

Nice machines! ~I have the same washer and dryer---but where did you buy them to get a SS dryer drum? SEARS @ one time had an exclusive of Frigidaire dryers with a ss drum. May still be the case. |

Steve: ironically an appliance store in Syracuse, NY called Ra-Lin's. According to the salesman, all the new Frigidaire dryers have the SS drum. Bobby in Boston |

I love the stainless steel dryer drum. My Frigidaire dyer has a window in on the door, and that stainless steel drum would look great in my dryer, and would match the washer. |
