I am getting the Maytag set from Ben. That was the easy part. Getting it to Washington state before snow flies is the tougher part. I have found a hauler who gave a reasonable price and promised kid glove serve. Jared said he would be glad to work with anyone and I warned him I was putting the information on the website.

Ask for Jared.

There are two options.

Frieght rates for anything crated are more reasonable.

Specialty Movers for antiques, fine objects and treasures are picked up at the site, blanket wrapped and placed on a padded trailer with air cushion suspension. Insurance is extremely reasonable and service is door to door.

What Maytag set?
Pictures?
Description?

Love my new 1-18, but, Maytag and KitchenAid have a special place in my heart.

Maytag Set

So you are getting the 806S and dryer as posted earlier? I was curious as I was also interested in the set and knew someone was ahead of me. I hadn't heard either way if they came through though.

Thanks

I am the Maytag hog and Ben devotee who claimed the Maytag set.

Hmm, I just noticed for the first time Kelly's new washer has the very rare wash 'n' wear button. Ben, do you know if this is more than simply offering a normal agitation & slow spin speed combination--like maybe the cool-down phase that was found on the 900 series machines long before Maytag put it on the dial of their regular timer-based machines?

Hey Bob,

The Wash N Wear button functions exactly the same as the later Permanent Press button did from mid 67-69 806 washers. Fast agitation/slow spin speed, with the user permitting the wash and rinse temperatures.

As you mentioned, the later 1970 and later 806 washers incorporated a Whirlpool-like Permanent Press cycle as a separate timer function.

Again - congrats Kelly! Tonight I moved the 806 set out for the AMP set. I'll start working on the washer sometime this weekend/next week.

Ben

No rush my friend. Since I'm not driving to get them it can be whenever you're ready. I am more than pleased and know that it comes with perpetual visiting rights!
