Seller claims washer has no water temperature or fill level settings. Is that possible on this model?

Didn't some of these have the water temps for wash built into the timers? Depending where you started it, was the temp selection, then all rinses were cold. Jon |

I had a similar washer, a few years older. It is a single speed and the temperature is built into the timer for hot and warm wash,only cold rinse and only a full fill. Mine did have a filter flo. I ran a jumper wire from both hot and cold inlets so temp was controled at the faucets. I had a tenant that used this washer trouble free for over 30 years.

I think that I would prefer the knock-out to be for a water level...
I think the speed option outside the timer dial outside the switch is pretty cool, and yes, I'll echo that the timer dial contained the wash temperature offering a hot or warm wash depending on where it was set, and you could reset the timer once the washer filled (though robbing it of its "automatic" properties) to the desired amount of time, and hopefully be satisfied with a cold rinse... I wonder if this was the washer I would see an appliance store offer in its newspaper ads, and often with the suds happily up to the rim... And me, cutting out an entire set of GE appliances from the newspaper, and taping them against the wall inside of the linen closet that was fun to play in until I got trapped under the shelves inside, and the doorknob couldn't be reached without a lot of screaming for mom to finally let me out... (A closet with the plumbing in the basement that once also housed the gas meter before it got moved outside was another closet, that the doorknob inside was designed not to turn, that I was also trapped inside of (with the light off actually) and my sister and I both got trapped in with the light on & Mom rescued us again)... But I deterred the entrapment, sawing away the portion of the wood-paneled wall that housed the latching plate so the door would just pull open and shut & when the basement got re-paneled the door got a knob and strike plate designed that way; no "hard" latch... -- Dave |

I called these 'specialty' machines...
although they could be used in a home setting......or as this one in a seasonal home..... but these were found more in commercial settings...like a beauty shop, doctors/vet, dog groomers setting.... still odd to see a speed selection....surprised it wasn't a one cycle machine... there was one in a shore condo we rented.....one cycle, one water level, warm wash, cold rinse....and probably the only filterflo I seen that didn't have a filterflo....and the dryer like this one, time cycle, high heat... |

These were built only to attract people into the store with claims like GE TWO SPEED washer only $129.95.
The term nail down was the jargon in the sales department because the machine was to never leave the store, you basically could be demoted if you ever actually ever sold one, but eventually they had to get rid of the floor model, VERY few of this type machine were ever built.
