A few months back, I found this on Craigslist, located in Peabody, Massachusetts. After a new emails back and forth, I agreed on a price ($75) and arranged a time to pick it up.
Not knowing exactly where I was going, I convinced Rich (Perc-o-Prince) to accompany me and off we went to a trailer park in Peabody. Okay, long and short of it is, the woman that I was corresponding with regarding the machine, her boyfriend is a metals scrapper. He found this in the back of a plumbing supply place. Not only did I get the machine, but in the tub was all the original paperwork, the original fill hose and the adapter for the kitchen faucet. Both Rich and I are firmly convinced that this machine was never used, although we can't be sure. Anyway, I plugged it in, it worked and off it went to Rhode Island. I'm slowly working on getting it cleaned up, but otherwise, it works perfectly. Will try to post a video, although that's really not my strong point. Ron

Glad that VERY NICE machine was rescued from the scrapper!Better that someone get more years of use out of it than being KRUSHED.Its better to recycle the machine by giving it a second life in a new home than krushing and melting it into beer cans. | ||

Great find!!!! I have one, and it's the most fun-to-use machine out there. Mine is a few years newer than the one pictured, but they work about the same. In fact, I'll be using it this morning to do a mountain of laundry that has accumulated. You'll be hooked on it soon. Jerry Gay | ||

Nice Washer I stopped in and took a look at this washer a few week's ago, it is quiet and runs like a charm. It is just like the washer my grandmother had many year's ago. Thanks Ron for the demo. Tim. | ||

YAY!!! It truly looks better in person. Pics don't do it justice. It was an exciting/fun trip. A powerful yet quiet machine. I love the spin rinse/dryer. The fact that it came with all of its paperwork was pretty cool. Lots of fun. I know that you're having a great time using it. Enjoy it in good health!! Rich | ||
