Nice save Travis, this looks to be the earlier rendition of the WO-65s that has the two deep rinses with no overflow rinses and the neat little neon pilot light on the control panel.
All the original Frigidaire Automatic washers had the two deep rinses and the engineers knew what they were doing when they designed this very cool washer. Problem was if you were using soap and did not have soft water the soap scum that formed was plastered all over the clothing as the heaver water was spun quickly out of the tub. The other problem with rinsing the clothing so thoroughly was again if you didn't have really soft water you rinse all of the detergents water softening properties out along with the detergent which leaves the clothing harsher and grayer as you rinse the minerals back into the clothing that were being held in suspension during the wash cycle. So going to the overflow rinsing after the wash and in the deep rinse got rid of the floating scum and eliminating the 2nd deep rinse kept a little more detergent in the clothing which kept a little more of the softening and the detergents fragrances in the clothing. |
