I have never had a WCI/DM machine and I would not want one either. My Smeg is acting up and I am still 500 bucks shy of getting my Miele G7156. Yes I could have charged it but I hate credit cards. I have two and I never use them.I don't consider my Amex a credit card cause I pay it in full each month.

 I went on Facebook Market place and this lady had a Frigidaire for 20 bucks , I ask if it runs she said she did not know its never been installed. I left and picked it up in White Hill Tenn. My God these people make 

the folks in Hee-Haw look civilized.  The whole family lives in a compound with Rebel flags and  signs about shooting on site/ Darkies Stay out shoot on site.  There was one house surrounded by 8 Trailers sons, daughters ,Granny and Etc.

I was kinda nervous she said to bring a 4 wheel drive cause its raining so I took my Dads Land-Rover it looks new but its 12 years old he hates it.I am wondering if she told everybody I am a Fag , I don't hide it on Face book and if they hate black people they will want to shot me . I do have my Ruger .480 on my belt .

They were actually very nice to me    (Not one person had teeth), they even gave me a gallon of wonderful Moon Shine , I knew I heard thumping .  I guess she did not look at my profile , but I am NOT the typical gay guy.

The dishwasher is a mid tier Dial and 4 buttons 3 wash arms 1/3 H.P. wash motor . She told me that her Grandmother bought it in 1992 and then she died two days later and her daughter moved in so its been sitting it the Garage for 30 years. The Jet-dry was dry-rotted but brand new . I wish it was a brand new Maytag or something else . Oh well I just need it to last for about a year and then I will get my Miele.

 Well it is very loud and seems to suds lock on any Finnish packet detergent.

I am going to have to adjust those holes in the wash arms. The bottom flies around like a fan but the middle one barley moves , I am looking to change it to the tower wash if I can.  The wash is too powerful it blows over everything.

I have never used a Frigidaire like this. I know it does not like Cascade Platinum ,SUDs lock on any packet even family dollar cheap crap.So back to Cascade Complete powder .

They had the bottom and Middle arm turning in the same direction , I changed that and it has broke up the sound some.

Yep, it's D&M built, one of the last ones.

I found a used portable one similar back in 2016. It was loud.

Tower wash

Why would you want to change to a tower wash? Switch to a store brand loose powder detergent and your suds issues will dissapear
