Daily dryer
My Maytag 1996 Dryer snapped a belt a month ago so I've been doing my tumble-drying in a vintage DE806 that I have up and running. My LG spins so fast that I usually line-dry at least part of the load. I popped an old Maytag vent screen bag over the vent so I retain the heat and moisture(with a smidgeon of lint) in the basement until the warm season begins. I have to say, there's something wonderfully simple about those old HOH Maytags. I'm usually all about buttons and more buttons, but this appliance is an icon of simplicity. No decisions; just pop the clothes in and push in the dial(usually set on "Regular"). They come out perfectly dry, with just a hint of moisture in them. and I love that cute little "ding" five minutes before the cycle's over. Good job Maytag! As soon as I get my big AIG bonus, I'm going to buy a new 7+ cu. ft. GE(or LG, maybe) gas dryer, but until then...

DADoES I sent you the larger scans as separate pages. I used PhotoShop to make it one single page and I think it was reduced in size when I saved it. Let me know if you receive the scans and if they need to be larger. Jim | ||

I'm going to try and scan just the controls and make them larger and hopefully they will be readable. | ||

This has been my primary set for the last 22.5 years
I bought these machines brand new at age 21 while I was in college. As soon as I got a place with a connection, I went out and bought these. At the time I didn't know a lot of things, one that this was among the very last belt-drive washers made (mid August, 1986). The other is had I looked at used machines, I probably could have found some neat and plentiful 1960s gems. Delivery day was much more exciting to me than when Mom got her washers, as this one was MINE. The washer has had a recent vacation due in part to a centerpost seal failing, which I haven't been motivated to fix, mostly because I have been using the machines that I restored this past year. This machine is not as 'vintage' as a '72 Lady K, a '63 Kenmore 70, or even my '61 Kenmore 70, but it is my pride and joy since I was able at such a young age to buy something new of my very own. I am a sentimental type guy, and it feels weird posting these here for everyone to see, but hopefully you can tell that I have appreciated them. I hope to have and be using these machines 22.5 years from now! Gordon

When addtinal room humidity is desirable, most of my drying occurs on this drying rack. But I find a 20 minute heated tumble in the dryer afterwards does wonders for removing creases and wrinkles and really helps get items bone-dry!

This photo has run several times around here, but it features something not many of you have: THE MOST HATED WASHER AT AW.ORG: A top-loading Frigidaire with a Franklin tub-indexing transmission! Glad to see a few other Frigidaire FLer's out there. Not a bad machine at all, and the price is certainly right.
