I've always wanted that dryer. Is the matching washer for sale as well? Boy, I'm tempted. They would look fabulous in my retro-pink bathroom. And I wouldn't have to vent the dryer!

perhaps from Rich aka 'Train Guy'

This may be from Rich aka 'Train Guy'? He had a HUGE collection of vintage machines and began a while ago thinning it down...though I did not end up obtaining any of his collection he was great to communicate with. It looks immaculate, in a clean laundry room...
May it go to someone who appreciates such a fine machine!

Heat your house?

Just a really pleasing design, with its non row-crop arrangements of buttons or dials, the slight asymmetry...I wouldn't care if it filtered caffeine, I really like it... great looking space-heater.



I said dryer, right?

We had a vented gas dryer (1950's) that seemed to heat our cold Michigan basement. So, does this really generate more external heat? Any difference in drying times from a standard vented? Just curious, as usual.

It's really neat to toggle from the first picture with the unlighted panel to the second with the lights on.

Beautiful, Ken! Is this your bathroom now or one you have planned?

I love that style of control panel. How exactly did a Filtrator work? It almost sounds to me like it's a dryer with a refrigerator compressor in it.

Control Panel

I think this is my favorite automatic control panel too. I just love the cycle indicator being independent of the knob.

Malcolm, 1964 Norge also had the off-set cycle indicator vs. control knob.  Frigidaire offered it for several years as did GE with their "TimeLine" tol washer in like 1963.  The Monkey Norge Tap'n'Touch was also simlar concept.  Those are the ones off the top of my head.

Filtrators used an air-cooled condenser to condense the steamy atmosphere inside the drying chamber. The redesigned models, like this one used two air circulation systems, one for circulating air inside the dryer through the load, past the lint screen, through the condenser and then over the heating elements and back through the tumbling load and one to blow the room air across the condenser tubes to cool them so the moistures would condense.
