 I was just thinking about the agitation of the Frigidaire washers of days gone by and wondering...why couldn't someone make one "kind of like" them now with maybe electronic relays or electromagnets or some other sort of device to achieve the up and down agitation?? I know it would not be a large market item due to water nazis but on a small scale maybe??? Thomas Ortega, you have any ideas?? | ||

Why not? I have always wondered why no one has done this. The patent has to have expired by now. | ||

I'm no Frigidaire expert, but weren't they actually pretty good on water usage? How many gallons is a large load in a 1-18? | ||

Not really understanding top loaders that well but ......
Those Frigidaires are amazing to watch along with the Unimatic and I am assuming that solid inner tubs would use less water than the others ?
if they were available here still I would have one as the unique wash action is something to behold but would make sure I did not have a water meter :) Austin | ||
