GE FilterFlo "MINI BASKET" Demo
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- This is to demo how well those mini baskets actually worked. You could put a couple of pieces in there and they wash just like they would in the regular machine, amazing.
Although this Washer does not have an actual minibasket selection, I use the small water level and made it work .
These GE washers were the very best washers ever made. So incredibly durable, did an excellent job washing. I hate that they ever discontinued manufacturing them.
@@jkminnich I just wonder how the newer GE COMMERCIAL WASHERS ARE? If they're almost as good as the past GE WASHERS? They seem as though that they should clean quite well.
Peter I loved my GE washer and use to use my mini basket all the time... Boy how I wish that I still had that washer today!!! Thanks for the video and have a great weekend... Bob
@@maryrobert80 thanks Robert. I really enjoy this machine. It brings back so many memories. My mother had two GE 1955 and a 1976.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is so cool...!!!! Pete has all the cool toys..!!! 💯🥳
@@chineeboy18 thanks 🤗
You certainly have no shortage of toys at your fingertips there Pete 👍🏻
@@patcola7335 WE LOVE TOYS! 😄😃😀
Somebody’s a little heavy-handed with the soap I see 🙄
@@patcola7335 you know what it is Pat I put just a speckle in there, but this machine has so much turbulence and water that that's why these filter flows that have suds going all over the floor
@@petermaz701 oh yeah 👍🏻
I love this washer!
I think the machines that had minibaskets were larger. Yours doesnt have it. The mini setting filled the main tub only about an inch. The circulation pump filled the basket. My parents machine had this. I think it was ment for hand washing and only a few pieces. The small setting filled the main tub about a third. I remember when using the mini basket, it only took about a tablesloon of detergent to make a RABBID mess!😂
I remember when my mom used the small setting with the mini basket on normal speed, you could hear the water turbulence. When the machine was rinsing, I thought it was off-balance. It was with the ramped activator.
Your GE Filter-Flo just became a Kelvinator. That washer is very splashy. Those suds are no joke. Susdslock to the 10th power.
@@erg844 yet somehow it got rid of all the suds. Remember these machines do a one minute spray rinse.
@@petermaz701 They're very powerful machines.
SEARS AND WHIRLPOOL WASHERS top loading would go into suds-lock mode in the first spin with all those suds. After the rinse though everything would be back to normal and complete the cycle. It would be best though to set cycle for another deep rinse using a fabric softener.
NORGE WASHERS AND MONTGOMERY WARDS WASHERS built by NORGE would have suds overflow outside as well as inside the machine's cabinet and would overflow on the mechanisms like the transmission and possibly the motor.
@@albertcarello619 That would be one messy wash.
Great post … TheGE washers with the mini basket has a water level just for the mini basket which would be less water ..Grew up with the GE filter flo washer Nothing like this era of GE washers .. they were workhorses👍🏾
@@marcusmarkus3266 yes unfortunately this one does not have that many basket setting. I had a 76 GE that did but I wanted to try the mini basket in it so that's why I tried it on the small water level a bit too much water, but it managed to work.
@@petermaz701then its not made for the mini basket. Might as well not use it
I grew up with GE too.
@@petermaz701 I'd try seating the mini basket in before starting the water.
i have rebuilt thousands of those. watch it dont strip out the agitator spline. its aluminum on steel. the corkscrew design put lots of strain on it. but i remember the cleaning rating was very high on the minibasket. i miss working on those.. many times found gold chains around the boot seal 👍 as long as the tranny dont leak grease on the floor.. and it has the "non asbestos clutch pads" its i good machine. i miss working on them.. just wish i made the money.. i went broke & had to stop. oh WAIT 2 minutes before changing to a slow speed for 2 speed washers.. the clutch internals are still spinning after the motor stops it will rip off the speed control arm & no more slow speed. oh.. if it goes out of balance starts banging redistribute the load the inner drum will cut thru the outer drum.. anyways some helpful info 👍
Thanks so much. I always knew that you could not change speeds on these machines.. unless it was completely stopped. You can go from slow speed to fast speed, but you can't go from fast speed to slow speed. That inner tub seems like it's a beast thick. I never leave my machines unattended. It took me a while to reacquire them, so I don't want them to get damaged.
Thanks for the advice
I had one of these loved it
Hi I did have that washer but that one is not for mini basket tinge one for the mini basket they said it in the water lever they said mini basket water lever but that washer is a regular washer with not mini basket I did have those washer before General Electric there are a really good washer I love those washer but be carful because you can broke the washer with the mini basket because that one is not for the mini basket
@@vicenteambert4919 thanks for the advice. Yes, when it has the mini basket option, it uses less water so the mini basket doesn't rise up in the tub like it did for me. I just wanted to see how it was working with a basket so I found one and tested it out
Omg i love filter flos, if. I could find a decent 9ne for sale local, for a decent pice kd be happy as a clam.. love the noise it makes, squish squish, and its power cant be denied... I mean thiese babays blast so much water out.the tub when open, you gonna getsoaked. I dont wonderwhat the purpose of fheini baslket is
? Reguardless it is a cool accessory. Love the teal coloring on the fliter tray and mini basket. Very nice machine.
This machine should have no problems getting rid of those suds.
Hey. I have a request. I'd like to hear the machine on a regular cycle on small load with the mini basket and filter pan, with the machine on normal speed and regular cycle with the lid shut. and of course with a load that would be suitable for this. It would bring back so many memories. That's what my mom did one time.
Hey. I would like to hear this machine on small load, normal speed, and regular cycle with the lid shut with the ramped activator.
Also, with the pan on too.
You also can't use high sudsing detergents in WHIRLPOOL and SEARS TOP LOADERS due to suds-locks. For years Whirlpool and Sears made their own low sudsing detergents and would pack Free Samples into their washing machines. Especially the washers made in the 1950s and 1960s. I think also that DASH AND ALL were especially meant for these machines and all the front loading washers.
CARACA TEM O MINI SESTINHO😮😮✌✌✌ 5:46
IM COMING OVER WITH MY LAUNDRY YOU HAVE ENOUGH SUDS THERE FOR 2 OR 3 LOADS LOLOL
@@alix1817 Nonsense your clothes need extra strength.
@@petermaz701 NO NO ONE WAS ON DELICATE IS FINE THANK YOU...
@@alix1817 That many suds SEARS AND WHIRLPOOL TOP LOADING WASHERS would have first spin suds-locks. At a friend's house I would observe a Whirlpool Washer in the first spin with a suds-lock spin speed about 10% slower than the final spin which went ok with no issues.
My mom had that model
@@d.f.6120 its a great machine one of the best!
Jajajajajajajajaja you can do a mini dual load, regular under, delicates in the mini basket!!!
@@augustowaters2866 I thought of that too, and I laughed
@@petermaz701❤
I have a matched set filterflo for sale
@@user-lg2jo5qu9p you should have no problem selling them if people knew how good they actually are.
throw clothes in it
