my mother had a V12..1964....plain jane.....not a solid tub...2 rocker switches on the left one for wash temp (hot or warm, all warm rinses) and the other for load size (6 to 12 lbs was large, under 6 lbs was small)....horizontal gray stripe across the control panel with GENERAL ELECTRIC printed and the GE emblem in the middle, V12 underneath, and the timer on the right side, ONE cycle, push in and turn to the DOT, this was a 12 minute wash, how simple was that?....only time you had to put the lid down was for the spin......that machine lasted for 20 years, only needed the trans boot, and fill and drain hoses, water valve got dirt inside once and stayed open and flooded the floor...amazing device inside that lets an overflo condition to spill on the floor without damage to motor or wiring.....nothing would kill this machine... other models had 2 or more cycles, and 3 or 4 rocker switches for speed selection and suds saver I believe..... nice memories of a machine I should have kept....who knew? |
