Listening to the pulsing soung takes me back to my grandmothers washer on the enclosed back porch. Hers was a 1953 machine. I'd still have it today, if I had been able to locate a replacement boot to go on it. It began tearing clothes. I wish my machine, today, would spin like this.
In 1969 we had an avocado green, very basic. We lived in a trailer house in Hickory, North Carolina. During the final spin the washer would walk all the way into the hallway. It was always getting off balance. I don’t think Mom loaded it right. I was fascinated with this washer. Good job on all of your videos.
I just bought that Frigidaire custom imperial washer from Delaware it has the crack in the top of the control panel and there a penny blocking the switch that turns the washer off if the lid is open. It's really cool to see it on a you tube video.
My aunt had the 1-18 I love it I would sit against it when it washed. Also my grandma had the harvest gold hotpoint washer/dryer set. Was her 1st set when she bought her house in the 70s. Awww the memories.
Fantastic Video... Absolutelylove the Vintage Frigidaire Jet Actions Washing Machines.... They did an amazing cleaning job, and the roll over action was the best. Wish I owned a COMPLETELY refurbished one... These were the best... The H E MACHINEStoday ate the WORST... Absolute Crap..
I Love these vintage Frigidaire washers, My Mother had one back in 1965 and it did an excellent job washing my dirty play clothes... Thanks for the video Gsohoover, If you could do any other videos it would be greatly appreciated???
Just wonderful ! But, as for the buttons' section presentation; I slightly prefer the Frigidaire Multimatic, from 1964. Anyways, all of these vintage washers from the 1950s and 1960s look much better than the ugly and not-so-solid crap they sell today (mostly "made in China", when it's Asian brands ...). German brands, like Bosch, AEG, Miele, Siemens (etc.) are the ones that still make the most solid and efficient stuff nowadays (and usually made in Germany !); the French brand Vedette also makes cool and solid stuff; but they all lack the charm of the old ones; with all these buttons, these knobs, soft light, chromes; and pastel colors for some of them. They couldn't design them like they used to; it was a way of making things that was specific to these times and that isn't done anymore (alas ...).
Definitely ! (and I would like to find one ... don't even know where to look. Here in France, it must now be even more rare, if not impossible. Perhaps in England or Germany there would be more chances for me to find, in some vintage exhibitions ... actually don't know !)
What is the difference between the Rollermatic, Unimatic, Multimatic, and I can't remember all of the rest of them. Oh! And the Pulsimatic transmissions. From inside the cabinet of the machines, what do the parts of the the transmissions look like in operation?

Best washers ever.
The sounds they make are gloriously familiar even 45 or so years after I last heard them on a regular basis.

Unbelievable cool washer.

These machines looks like really cool and the pulsating wash action is very interesting. I like it 👍

That avocado one is my dream machine lol. I have all avocado appliances-I want to find the washer and dryer next. I have a 1-18 it’s just white
Those would clean really well !

They don't make things like they used to, sadly! The 64s are rare!

Thanks for the video. My grandmother had this machine!
I was curious what the dryer looked like?
They aren't easy to find.
Nice machine but super noisy during wash cycle
Yes, these are loud.
Was this machine losing water while it was running
A little bit, torn bellows
i want to buy this
They show up from time to time
Just shut up and let the machine do it's thing? I mean c'mon
Most people enjoy my dialogue. Don't like it? Don't watch
