Three Dog.... Blankets! (Or yet another unscientific Filter Flo trial) |

I decided to wash Canyon's car blankets on Saturday morning (I needed to play with the vintage machines in Ogden, what can I say...) so I figured this would be a good test for a certain 63 V-12 Filter Flo.
The load was one old double sheet, a thermal-style blanket, and an old bedspread. All of which are used in the car in a vain attempt to keep the dog hair at bay... Even minutes after the wash started, the lint ball is building... |

Full enough?? I'm used to it now, but that water level looks awful high...
Of course this HAD to be the moment Hubby got up and was wondering what the hell I was doing in the basement. His observations: "It's broken. It's going to flood the basement. Get rid of it." I think my work for trying to convince him that this washer and its matching dryer should be installed in town is going to be a challenge... LOL |

some hairs will get intertwined....but usually a run thru the dryer and most all is removed...your good to go.....
take it from someone who washes Yogi's blanket every other day....and right now he is shedding his undercoat, seems like the wrong time for it, but its comming off like cotton...could be the warm weather, and he's inside now more than ever... |

First pic, especially fetching, the colors, the filter flo water coming down.
Has the irony ever struck you that these beautiful vintage machines with their small tubs fill to the very brim, threatening overflow to the extent that Hubby pronounces yours broken, while the new machines have enormous tubs and can't get the level up even a few inches, if any ???!!! The world has indeed gone mad. |
