Console shots: The timer: Note there is no perm press cycle. The delicate cycle has intermittent agitation. Soak cycle has agitation periods at each start point and at the end. Spray rinse begins at the same time the brake solenoid releases during the drain/spin.

Washing away! The typical Norge sounds, and you can see the water spitting out of the top of the agitator:

Rinse water is always clear. Very long agitation stroke and brisk action provide great cleaning:

You've found the killler machine--the legendary " S
For whitest whites, you dial up a hot water wash with the full 45 minute "Soak to Wash." It's as close as we get to a "boil wash" here in the states ;'D Turn up your tank to HOT. Imagine what a long hot soak in powdered Tide with Bleach followed by a 15 minute wash in the same luxurious washing liquors will do for your whites. Your baby will do it all automatically. Hate to cliche, but....Bobby..... that is a totally awesome washing machine! The possibilities for fabric treatment in a "Soak to Wash" are absolutely dazzling | ||

Awesome!!!!!
You scored bigtime!!!I used to sell them at George's in Baltimore.The washer retailed for $399 and the dryer was $299($50 xtra for gas models). Both were the last of the great Norge line of washers and dryers just before Fedders,the owners of Magic Chef,Norge and Dixie-Narco,sold out to Maytag.I was lucky to have a couple of neighbors who had these either under the Norge or Magic Chef lable and they were great in getting clothes clean and the dryers were amung the fastest in drying time.We also had Maytag,Whirlpool,Amana,GE and Frigidaire products.I sold a lot of the Frigidaires and the White- Westinghouse Space Mates.

Great machine. It's just like my "Chef Norge" except teh colrs on the cycles are different on mine. Soak to wash is grey, normal cycle is yellow and the short cycle is red. Other than that I see no differences. Mine also has the recessed water flume. Love that Norge tranny sound! Les | ||

Anyone is welcome anytime to see it. Maybe it's time for a wash-in. I'd better get the 1-18 hooked up and going. Bobby in Boston | ||
