    I love these machines because they don't take you through all the load sensing, pauses and not giving enough water to wash the clothes clean

    don't be sorry about the sound duke it is very relaxing to a "washer freak" like me, it is very relaxing listening to a machine washing it will put you to sleep. I love it.

      kelly savage I thought I was a washer freak. I use to sit against the washer and listen as it washed. My grandmother had a Hotpoint Harvest Gold washer and dryer. Loved them both.

    Ahh the simplicity of push buttons. These washers outlast new ins and are a ton easier to use because you don't have to push 5000 buttons on a touchscreen to get a cold wash. Take really good care of this machine.

    They also had a line of “masculine” washers - the Man’s Kenmore. Powered by a Briggs and Stratton twin cylinder engine and featured no drum suspension at all for its rough-cut stone-lined 1/4” thick steel drum, and the spin cycle was somewhere around 1200 RPM, so it required a special reinforced concrete foundation that was to be anchored to bedrock. The washer came in black, puke green, and blood red. This washer was accompanied by an oil-fired dryer that had an “incinerate” feature for quick, and easy disposal of clothing when the need arose. They only lasted a week on the market before being recalled and the entire line discontinued.

      The lady Kenmore's were very quiet and smooth. In some respects I think they were even smoother than the Whirlpool Marks..

    Hi Duke AWESOME video, I love the PUSHBUTTON Lady Kenmore with the VARI FLEX agitator. It turned the towels many times as it swished and sloshed them from side to side. The rollover is really great even with the amount of water you used. Question, did you use a different size BELT or PULLEY, because the agitation stroke and the spin is faster than the usual 68 OPM and 515 RPM? You made this video almost 11 years ago, Is the LADY still working?

    I think that's a veriflex agitator you can make it even more vigorous if you wanted to just lift up on it and move to the certain number or whatever it is Mark whatever
