was really fun. So is the Agi-tumble action. What a neat commercial. Glad you found it. Tom, I think the slant-back drain was mentioned here a while ago, but I don't remember the details or who knew about it--maybe Bob-- but it sure would be cool to hear more or see it happen.
The Westinghouse music is so old now it almost sounds eerie. Thanks for sharing a classy find. |

Bob, i always wondered if it really tilted, AFAIK, the spacemates and the slant front machines had the same mechanism. I vote marketing also. alr2903 |

Robert, i thought they would resize, I had tried to share these once before, and could not get them to load. If too much space is used please delete them. arthur |

I think the angle of the tub does change slightly when it fills with water you can see the wrinkles in the door boot when its full of water. When it drains the clothes tend to cling to the rear of the tub more while the first spray rinse takes place WH called this FREE RINSING. Having the clothes spread on the tub back also helped the load balance as it went into spin. I do think the commercial exaggerated the tilt change that takes place a quite bit.

Wow! I just love the MW front load set! What a fantastic, beefy looking re badged Westinghouse set! I wonder if any of these babies are still out there?! Thanks for the ads. Brent |

COOL! I'll have to try that glass trick Tom, we have that dishwasher hooked up downstairs in the workshop now. Although I have the upper rack turned around 180 degrees from what is shown in the commercial, our racks are set so the cup was in the back near the flume so the spray is somewhat forced past the cup to the front of the dishwasher during the pre-wash flush. |

Robert, so the glass over the detergent was to shield it from the purge spray? Thanks, Tom |
