Looking at this Norge brought back fond memories. I had forgotten how large the tubs were in those machines.Same design as our Fedders Norge.Good washers,though very LOUD. Pat |

We used to have the matching dryer to this washer. What a wind tunnel the Norge dryer was. Most dryers suck the air through the drum. The Norge had a huge turbine behind the drum blowing air into it. Not long before its demise, the door handle broke off and we used a grip from an old pair of jumper cables to keep the door closed. MRB |

Hi! I have some friends with a lake house who have a "Crosley" of about this vintage---looks exactly like it. It still works great and I love to hear it in action, Ka-Choo Ka-Choo! Thanks for the pix. -Steve |

Wasn't Catalina the Whites Auto Store brand? Western Auto was the Citation and Wizard. They were made by Norge and Franklin at different times. Glen. |

Just like Maytag wash action. Back and forth,though very powerfully. |

Cool machine! I didn't know Fedders made Norge. Must have been a stopover between Borg-Warner and Magic Chef. |

Someone made mention on another thread about the Fisher and Paykel handling a king size comforter. The only top loading machine that I ever thought could handle my comforter was a Magic Chef(Norge). That tub was HUGE. Of course, regular wash speed would have ripped it to shreds. Thanks to MC/N for the Gentle/Fast setting. I used it for Comforters/Blankets/Throw Rugs. It was great. And loud enough that you knew when it was finished when you could hear the tv again. MRB |
