Both nice looking sets. Maytag sure does make a handsome set. That turquoise set is interesting. 1958 or 59 maybe. Washer looks like may be the first year for the larger lid. |

Oh Kevin. You have the same 'Maytag' fever that I caught 2 yrs ago. What stunning machines. I did not like the color or my HG 806 when I first got it, but it has grown on me. I need to find a matching dryer. Most of my Maytags were found on Craigslist thanks to my dear friend Kelly, who told me about it. Keep the wondful pics coming. -GG |

.... For the turquoise set anyway! He posted a thread saying, "Looks like Kevin gets to add yet another fantastic set to his collection." Well Dan, yes you are correct! LOL However I'm pretty sure I'm not going to keep them. My thought was to grab them and save them for someone who will appreciate and care for them, like those of us here on AW. I do like this turquoise set. But while there are obvious differences, this set is too similar to my 1962 - A700/DE701 set and I honestly like the styling of the 700's better. They both appear to work. I tested the washer and it works as it should, but the rubber hose from the fill flume to the tub ring is cracked and needs to be replaced. Also the transmission input shaft seal is leaking oil a little (but so is my 700). The dryer lights up and turns, but I don't have easy access to a gas line to test it completely. |

*cough! cough!* Sorry, Kevin, I was just clearing my throat... Geeze I REALLY have to stop, LOL! Uh huh... You still have room if you can still walk around in there. Just get a car cover for the pony and you can easily fit several more sets. And I thought I was talking about Delp with the 'crazy cat lady' comment. LOL!!!!!! Seriously, they are really great finds and should clean up really well. I guess the place to live if you want nice finds like that is in So.Cal. RCD |

I love that big turquoise dryer. They're in splendid condition. I just picked up a green Maytag for $25.00, but the paint is not that mint. |

Actually Dan I'll have FOUR decades of Maytags, as they are from 1959 (turquoise T142/741C set), 1962 (white A700/DE701 set), 1971 (H-gold 806 set) & 1980 (Almond 806/808 set)! I think I feel a photo-op coming! OMG, I have 4 complete Maytag sets, plus a 1964 N2L wringer AND not one, but TWO A50's!!!! (Pulls hair our screaming) Aaaaaahhhhh!!!!!!!! Oh Drew, Drew, Drew, what am I going to do with you? I CANNOT be the crazy cat lady, because I don't like cats! LOL And yes I could put the cover back on the 'Stang, but that won't give me any more space, I'd actually LOOSE about a ¼ of an inch because of the thickness of the cover! LOL I do know what would work better… I'll just park all the cars (and motorcycle) on the street so I can completely fill the garage with washers and dryers! NOT! *smile* LOL |

You COULD buy and install those carlifts I see in customer garages so you can park a car and then lift it up and park another car underneath it. Think of all those homeless appliances that you'd take in (like cats without the smell or meowing...)LOL!!! Keep them in your dining room. It works for QSD-DAN... LOL again!!! No one is *forcing* you to look at Craig's List although Dan sure does find and post them... even I don't spend that much time on C/L... Well... RCD |
