- Washing work pants in the 1965 Lady Kenmore washer. It did a nice job, the first cycle in this machine in nearly a decade. Sorry about the camera shaking and it fell. Hope you all enjoy the video.

Always loved the older Kenmore machines. Love machines with lighted consoles.
Nothing LG is building for Sears is even worthy to bear the name "Kenmore" like this true quality built Whirlpool made washer.
As clunky as Kenmore/Whirlpool washers were they sure deserve their place as some of the best washers this country ever produced.
Sure there were rarer and better spinning washers, but these belt drive WP/KM have such a personality that is unique to the brand. They cleaned very well and sound like no others and were built very well.
Just a nostalgia trip every time I see one of these, because when I was young in the 70's and early 80's I saw these machines around quite a bit. Hard to believe these would one day never be produced again.
Maytags may not have cleaned quite as well, but I think they were built even better. And I like the way manny of them sound as well.
@@wawawis Maytag may have been engineered better with less moving parts but as far as build quality I think these were evey but as well built as a Maytag but then I haven't been able to compare these machines side by side .
These machines were the best washers ever made
Now that is a NICE rollover
I love when the motor start to agitate! Powerful yet quiet :)
Wish I had a machine like this
Probably the third time I watched this.. Love this machine.. Such a great washer with amazing performance.. Wish washers were still like this... Hey, we got to finally see what you look like on thus video..
This load of heavily soiled pants would qualify as a Super Wash load in my 1963 RCA Whirlpool Imperial Mark XII : )
Love the sound of belt drive Kenmore and Whirlpool machines, so relaxing.
It would be if the idiot would shut up with the running commentary throughout all of his videos.
@@mm_xx8827 Can see you have no videos up. Why don't you make some and show us how it's done?
What's pretty girl...Kenmores were work horses . I have my Nana's pink & white Kenmore wringer. We thought it from outta space when it arrived. Still works great.
Peace from Maine !!!
Back in the old school day with a radio on it washing machine
Gorgeous machine. Love the color and the lit control panel. The agitator scrubber is something we'll never see again. When Whirlpool changed from direct drive to belt drive I spoke with some or the morons at Sears, they said the lid lock is needed to prevent accidents. I then mentioned the agitator scrubbers and how it was never even needed, they didn't want to hear anything other than HE and see those commission dollars come their way.
Sad to see the state of appliances and Sears! Kenmore used to mean something. Don't even get me started about HE machines.
@@Gsohoover I honestly think that he washers do a very good job at cleaning. They just have all these new "technologies" that are supposed to clean the clothes better. For example, LG top loaders have something called "Turbo wash technology", which was patented by LG. Bottom line, they are good at cleaning. The only things I dislike about HE washers is that they only last five years and you cant overload them without something going wrong. But overall, they're pretty good machines. But I respect your opinion Gso.
That’s a really nice washer there, way better than these new Belt drive washers. My great grandmother had a 1979 one, wish my mom would’ve taken it when she moved out the house
That rotoflex does a pretty good job
I loved when you did all of the videos on this baby. We need a refresh sometime soon if you still have her :)
There were Kenmores and Lady Kenmores, and the latter were the heavier duty line of appliances
Wow. That agitator is very effective. Never really appreciated it until now. Great turnover.
My mom had the 800 model that lasted and had to be replaced in 1983. That machine had the be replaced in 1983 than she bought a whirlpool .
Whirlpool built the best washer back then!
Love the old appliances from the one I'm looking at right now I wish I would have had or have now hear about all these explosion on these washing machines I'd rather have an older one
Love the cooperation Gso. Keep them coming. However I hope you come across a Hotpoint Lady Executive washer. Thanks Gso. I know I sound like a broken tree record but love that I'm not the only appliance especially washers fanatic.
Tyler thank you for the great video! It does seem like the water level needs to be adjusted! Such a narrow range!
I actually like the design of the old later Kenmore the old Kenmore washers and made like that because you can get heavier items easier in and out where is the other ones you can't when you actually in a bump in your hand and fingers a lot trying to get things out of the newer design ones
@ Gsohoover:
Hi, I’m Charles...
And I am also a Kenmore fan.
I used Kenmores growing up....
. 24” Kenmore 1-Speed/1Cycle (1967-78)
. Kenmore Model 70 Large Capacity (1978-). Still running when I left home in 1987
. Kenmore Model 600 2-Speed/3-Cycle w/Waterfull Lint Filter And Black Bakelite Straight-Vane Agitator (like the 1967 24” 1-Speed/Cycle I grew up with)(1967-1990)
. Kenmore Model 80 Direct-Drive w/Dual-Action Agitator (1990-2007)
. Kenmore Elite Model w/Stainless Steel Tub And Dual-Action Agitator (2007 until we moved).
And our Dryers were.....
. Kenmore All American Match All Dryer w/Solid-State Sensor inside a 5.9 cu. ft. Drum, Wrinkle-Guard, and Full-Width Door (1976-)(mate to our Kenmore 24” Washer)
. Kenmore Match All Dryer to the 1990
Kenmore Direct-Drive Washer, also with Solid-State Sensor (now with a Lighted 6.9 cu. ft. Drum), Wrinkle-Guard and Semi Full-Width Door (1987).
Now, with all of that out the way, and I hate to put it to you, but I believe your 1965 Lady Kenmore did have a Tub Light inside of it.
Are you sure that it doesn’t?
You also said that Paul has a 1965 Lady Kenmore just like yours, and I believe it has a Tub Light inside of it.
You may want to check with him on that.
The very first Lady Kenmore Keyboard did not have a Lighted Tub, but it did have a Detergent Dispenser on the right side of top of the machine next to lid.
You might want to thoroughly check into that.
Your 1965 Lady Kenmore is a beautiful and quiet machine, but I only believe that the 1969-75 Lady Kenmores were quieter still.
Your 1965 is still a beautiful machine.
Hope you enjoy it immensely.

Oh....... and the Keyboard Lady Kenmore Model was made from 1969-75)
-Charles-
Hi Charles, I will look into it. You have thorough experience with Kenmore. I plan on checking into the tub light. Thank you for watching the video.
Gsohoover my moms lady kenmore had the tube. Light. Plus the panel lit up and the filter light lit up while the machine was washing
This machine is a classic one
Washing machines to day are called classic throw away stuff
Since they don't use hardly any water. Someone told me they malfunction so easily to much computer
Oh wow! Look at that machine go! And it's beautiful!! You still have the 1958 Whirlpool time-line Imperial washer? Did you get it fixed?
Best machine ever.can you do a video using the wash n wear cycle?.
PS cell phones can distort colour,...but the Copper tone enamel is showroom finish nice. Enjoy your machine. I have a dwindling collection, of machines.
Peace-Danny
I thought the ARIEL DETERGENT would have suds up much more. I expected many more suds.
I’m making this but it will be 2023 whirlpool comercial
During neutral drain, you can hear the wigwag
Adjusting the water level to low does not change the amount of time it takes to drain that’s a timed drain cycle. Regardless of the water level in the tub high or low it will drain the same amount of time. My aunt had a Kenmore washer and I used to do her laundry many times it was an oldie believe it or not it was older than this one it had all the alphabets that you select a cycle with. Built like a tank with the black Roto swirl agitator and the same top that you have, black rubber with a detergent cup over it.
Was it the 1958 model with the black Roto swirl agitator and the letter K engraved on the timer and or agitator?
Antonio Carter yes I think so. I know I saw one on UA-cam that was restored and looked beautiful. If I find it later I will let you know.
The 800 model had the black roto swirl agitator with the cup over it also alphabet cycle selector with the lighted panel ours was a 60s model
Love it sweet
Strange agitator at the bottom! It just has the fins with nothing in between those fins. Looks like sometimes laundry could get caught under the fins as the agitator goes back & forth.
sweet
omg that sexy washer 😍… damn my bad…💀
First model to have the "roto-flex agitator?
7 seconds each for the spray rinses
If you listen closely, it's a 6-second solenoid-timed spray. We had a 1969 RCA washer built by Inglis with a whirlpool lint filter. It had the same pattern of spray rinses as your Lady Kenmorebut they were five seconds in duration. We later got a 1987 Kenmore and it had the exact same rinse pattern of four spray rinses x 5 seconds that the RCA had 18 years previously! Either the engineers were lazy, or it must have worked!
I hear some sound in the motor that sounds like a direct drive
Great rollover, that agitator does a superjob. There is a roto swirl agitator, penta swirl agitator and I forgot the name of this one?
Rotoflex
pat cola thanks is that the one with the dial on top to change the vanes on the bottom?
@@petermaz701
The one you are thinking of was called vari-flex agitator. That was the agitator directly after this one I believe.
pat cola thanks, so they had 4 different agitators along the way. Kept it interesting I guess.
@@petermaz701
I think all the Kenmore agitators were...here goes in no particular order.
1. Bakelite straight vane
2.Bakelite Roto swirl
3. Poly Super roto swirl
4. Roto flex
5. Poly straight vane
6. Vari flex
7. Large capacity straight vane in their first large capacity washers in the late 60's. Fins protruded up the agitator similar to speed queen.
8. Penta swirl
9. Penta vane
10. Dual action
Almost forgot Sears did have a large capacity super roto swirl also.
Quite a bit of agitators while sister whirlpool stuck with the super surgilator in varying forms over the belt drive's nearly 40 year run.
We still have our cup top is a scrubber
Model 800 1962model
What is the best top load of all time?
These hit most of the check marks. I'm a Frigidaire guy, however they are difficult to repair.
I bet they are and they're quite noisy. Especially the 1-118's!!
Why is the water murky and green?
It's not green, gives the illusion of that because of the backlight on the washer.
Was gonna say... Florescent light can cast a green cast...some phone take
Do a blanket with two pairs of jeans.
Coming up this weekend!
The Camera Angle Is Poor And Please Show The Drivetrain Operations Of During Cycle.
The transmission Speed Queen is the closest we have to this today.
What is the ticking noise 👎 in the spin cycle? I do not 👎 hear 👂 it in the wash, or drain cycle. I know ya said these machines have little quirks of their own, such as when ya take one out of storage to use it. I hope somebody specially builds transmissions, gears ⚙, and motors for these wonderful washing machines. They still make the original whitewall tires for classic cars, from the original molds. I hope that's also the truth with these Kenmore's, and Whirlpool's. There's buffs for these as well. I hope they make the parts for them. Your friend, Jeff.
That’s the timer. It is present earlier in the cycle if you listen carefully, but the agitation noises cover it up a bit, because the ticking coincides with the water sloshing as the agitator reverses direction.
