I just love these older washer's and wish they would come back with them all instead of the junk that's out there today!!! Thanks for the video Peter and have a great day...
😍😍😍😍😍 is all my reaction is. Just stunning. It’s frickin brand new still. The color is so extravagant paired with the beautiful blue powerfin. And yes! Gain softener, my favorite softener ever!!
i used to work on many of those new. belts.. main seal.. pretty much lasted. oh the motor rollers "Round 4" later changed to "square 4" glided not rolled in the tracks was better. sometimes the water inlet airrator would leak some? good old machine 👍 i forget the belts numbers 🤔 2 strokes will do that.. lol i think 2-11124 & 2-11125 ? its been a long time. the clothes dryer was known for the plastic blower wheel stripping out on the motor. not a super hard replace. just to get to...
@@joeyjennings9548 thanks for watching. I did get a set of OEM belts to keep in just in case. But the ones underneath still look great. I don't think this machine has seen much use.
@@patcola7335 now the washers are like Plymouth neons if you could remember them. Or the Plymouth dusters my tenant had one when her daughter and her were getting in it was a windy day. She had just picked it up. The wind blew the door right off the hinges..
The Maytag really was the luxury top loading machine compared to a Speed Queen in its day and only the Whirlpool rivaled it regarding its cleaning performance but the Maytag had a porcelain top and excellent build quality and components. The click and strength of the timer was noticeably superior and stronger than any of its competitors and it was so smooth and quiet when it ran. Of course there was sound deadening but it was really the superior motor, pump and transmission that was intrinsically smoother than the others to begin with.
I was always a little jealous that two of my aunts had Maytags because they were so premium and so quiet. My Aunt Gert had one that lasted forty years before she replaced it with another Maytag and My Aunt Betty and Uncle Frank liked to buy a new house every ten years and buy a new pair of new Maytags first thing as soon as they moved in. We didn’t have a dryer when I was growing up and had A Whirlpool belt drive in the kitchen that went woo- woo-woo-woo . Then we had a very unreliable Norge that lasted only six years and. vibrated all of the time. Then in 1984 we got a Whirlpool drirect drive that sounded like a jackhammer. The Whirlpools served us very well however it was just that they were in the kitchen and we had to listen to them. My aunts and uncles on the other hand ironically had their machines in their basements. When I got my first house I got a direct drive and a matching dryer and since it was in the basement it didn’t matter. It was a phenomenal machine and I was so I was happy and when I got my real estate license as an agent and then eventually bought a couple of properties I leaned how to repair them myself and kept them working for years. They really did serve me well because I couldn’t figure out how to service anything else. They were so simple to work on.
@@LlyleHunter you know Bruce I've heard that before that the direct drivers were simple to work on. My first washer was a 1955 general electric filter flow that of course my mother had then we moved into this house in 69. It had a Kenmore belt drive that came with the house and then we got our GE with the lighted panel that was called the dispenseall It was the top of the line. Then my favorite was the Maytag in harvest gold. Another GE after that. And then I started my collection. I never had a direct drive so I kind of missed that generation of machines because we had General Electric or we had Maytag.
@@LlyleHunter i'm not really good at Repair. The most I've done is change a pump and hoses on the direct drive because it's so easy and I clean up machines very well but that's as far as I get. I'm pretty good at tracking them down though. Lol
@@About_Weather lol it certainly is and it's still going strong. None of the new current crop of washers will last over 40 years and still be in the condition that this one is in nor work as well.

With Toyota reliability.
Yeah, the were more expensive than most washers then.

@@domthewasherguy thank you I just love the color we had that with my mother years ago.

I love how smooth it is. Effortless!!

I did fix up a 90s Maytag with the seven piece transmission and that was very simple. Loved that machine.

new maytag ✖️
old maytag ✔️
A lot repair techs advise not to use fabric softener..claim that it "goops up" the washer.
@@markdavid7013 it does, but if you run the washer with hot water and are careful to not overuse all the time you should be OK.
The agitation reminds of the speed queen.
Naww this shit is old

Old appliances will last you 100 years homie. Not the chinese made bullshit made today.
