Although not nearly as thrilling as other machines I've found, i spotted this as a good option for our garage set... I know these don't spin that fast, but the weak spin concerns me a tad.. I've asked for a model number...

They look like a nice set! Wish I had room for them. I always liked belt drive Whirlpool's - we had one for a while when I was a kid. From what I can remember it also spun slow, much slower than our Maytag did. I'd grab it if I were you. Don't forget the videos. | ||

I could be wrong but the wider diameter tub makes up for the "slower" spin speed. I recall my clothes being stuck to the tub and feeling relatively well spun. I believe the effective "g-force" is the same as a narrow tub spinning faster.

A very nice set indeed; minimal maintenance and they'll provide great service for many more years. | ||

Is it an electrics dryer? These are pretty basic-looking machines, but even if the washer lacks a self-cleaning filter, but hopefully has a true delicate speed, not to mention the dryer having a gentle-heat dry and even a temperature-sensing automatic dry, then these are good value for the money, especially if they're large-capacity...
