Anything that's digital is nothing but junk. This Kitchen Aid is a good washing machine. I do have a Kenmore washer I purchased in 2006 as they were coming out with the digital. Its one the last of the of normal washer without being digital. I do love my washer but I also prefer a wringer washer which I wished I never got rid of. It was the best. But hey! Congrats on having a better washer.
Nice grab ! These KitchenAid washers were Whirlpool's top of the line premium machines. That has a lot of Chrome on there for 1989. I remember wanting one of these at that time.
@@elevatorproductionsbymaxpassaJust found one this past weekend. A 2005 Superba reconditioned looks new. Bought it and will take it home Lord willing this Saturday coming up.
I have a 1980-something Whirlpool direct-drive washer that is still 100% original. The cam dogs on the dual-action agitator need replacing, (which I just need to stop being lazy and do!), but otherwise it is a PERFECT washer. I've been told that, whenever it does give up the ghost, if I spend about $250-$300 for a complete rebuild, (which should take all of about 2-3 hours max. and parts are still readily available), this machine will run for at least another 30+ years. No way I'm ever buying a new piece of crap machine. I love this old Whirlpool direct-drive behemoth! :)
I have the same model. KitchenAids of that vintage have an oversized agitator with a larger base and fins. Mid and upper models like this one with 3-speed motors (high, low, ex-low), the motor runs at low speed (not high speed) for High/Normal agitation. Ex-low motor speed is used for Low agitation. High motor speed is run only during neutral drain and High spin. This model has the stepped-spin feature which begins spin at a lower speed for a couple minutes then switches to faster speed. The final spin on Permanent Press runs two mins at each of the three motor speeds. Regular/Heavy final spin is two mins at low, 4 mins at high.
I just have to tell you how happy this video made me. I miss my old washing machine so much, when I sold my last house I left my washer and dryer behind. Not realizing what a horrible mistake it was.
100% truth I scrap a lot and I had a bunch of washing machines that was newer I jumped those but the older ones I kept and people ask me why did I keep them and the reason that I kept them is because the well-built well-made stuff that was made back in the day should not be scrapped if you take that old stuff and you destroy it and it melted down and turned into new junk that they have today then no good stuff will be left like for example a washing machine like that might last you between 30 and 50 years a new washing machine last about three years so I just think it's important to keep old things around
Awesome decision and very smart. I have a 96 Whirlpool direct drive I absolutely love it had Whirlpool direct drives all my life, best machines next to the speed queens and older Maytags plus there’s lots of used mechanical washers that have tons of options, so there’s no excuse when people wanna buy new they are all such junk.
This is exactly what I did about a year ago. I was able to get nine for 30 bucks. They didnt like it bc it was loud. But I love it! My newer washer had the locking mechanism that kept going out and just like you said yiu cant if the computer or the actual locking mechanism.
That was Whirlpool's flagship washer. These were heavily insulated so they were super quit. I think the motor even had special bearings on it. Keep this FOREVER.
We have one old school like this and it's the best washing machines made. No computer gadgets, just plain and simple. Washes clothes better than any modern front loader thing.
@@Warp3326 consumer reports has a great article about when front loaders started entering the US market again. Their cleaning ability was so good that they had to split out top loaders in their own category. If combined, there wasn’t one top loader that would score above an ‘F’ for cleaning. There are also numerous other studies and articles if you search.
I was lucky, found a Speed Queen manual control top loader for sale in a rural area close to the suburb I live in. Turns out the family selling the washer uses well water exclusively and this older style washer used too much water during drought conditions that occur every so often out there. They bought a new high efficiency machine and decided to sell this one which only had a couple years of use on it. That was seven years ago and it's still working perfectly.
It helps not to overload, I think that makes a big difference. I have a Frigidaire set over 25 years old. One nickel in the water pump (easy fix) and a set of shock absorbers for $13. Hope the GE hangs in there a long time for you, too.
Congrats on the new Kitchen Aid!! Nice Machine!! Nothing better than the old washers! I have a 22 year old whirlpool Calypso washer and dryer in Mint condition!
I agree with you about this modern washing machine phase I'm going to call the face because sooner or later people are going to catch on to how crappy they are I agree 1000% and that's a great video
I have a 1977 Maytag washer that was damaged when workers moved it. Possibly feet and also the spin cycle stops alot when clothes are out of balance. Should I get it fixed or buy a Speed Queen TC5003WN washer? Insurance will pay for new washer
@@joyryan6575 Since insurance is paying, I'd go with the Speed Queen TC5. That's the only modern day equivalent to the 1977 Maytag. There is no telling what all got damaged internally with the moving fail. I would be pissed about it though!
I completely agree those Whirlpool made vintage machines are wonderful, but the 8 minute wash time you are seeing on the lid is just the time the machine agitates the clothing (the wash portion of the cycle), the fill drain spin and rinse times aren't listed. The entire Normal cycle is about 30 minutes.
Damn, an old school washer that, you know, FILLS THE DRUM WITH WATER to WASH YOUR CLOTHES! The old school washers were pure mechanical tanks; the new HE washers - without the counter weights to stabilize them - will shake themselves apart during the spin cycle!
I just bought a 1992 kenmore that looks like is was on the front of the titanic but it works perfectly, I had to stop wasting money on new washers that lasted hardly even 2 years!
Thanks for your best video. I put my like, just after the first 5 seconds I start watching it. I learn all about new style electronic washers on my experience - they're not efficient at all, and have lots of problems. You'll be a prisoner of your own nightmare before you solve them. The older model of washer & dryer with electromechanical power control is a best deal!
"Lets Run It"....THAT got me fired up! YEEHAW New Fangled "Machines" with all the techno-idiot up dates are RED FLAGS to me. I'm always looking for used, serviceable "Machines" if and when I need to get one. Just like vehicles, I'm drawn towards Wheels that have some "experience" under there hood. Brand New might LQQK and Smell good but that honeymoon is gonna leave as fast as it came in and THEN you best be happy with what you said YES to....down the aisle or at The Cash Register! LOLOL Cheers Jamie and Great to hear from you! Happy 2022
thanks - I almost mentioned that it's probably best to buy an old used 1970's truck with no computer & sink $ into it - with the way new trucks are even if you spent $20,000 to get & fix up an old one your still in it $20,000 less than a new one. thanks again & happy 2022 to you too!
I don't trust older machines. When they finally die, you are stuck with a massive addiction to something that can never rightfully be replaced. Anyone who owns one will never willingly relinquish theirs😎.
The new HE washing machines have wider tubs to accomodate a comforter. They claim they use less water to wash your clothes. My new Maytag HE uses more water than my old 20 year old Maytag did. The water spreads out farther in the tub on the new machine. They claim they now use less water but they are lying to us. The clothing in the new machine also does not get clean because the clothing does not move around in the tub like it did in the old machines. The new Maytags are being made by Whirlpool, and the deep fill option doesn't even fill the tub half way. My old Maytag made in the Newton Iowa factory back when Maytag was still it's own Corporation before Whirlpool came along and bought Maytag had a porcelain top and lid that never scratched. The new Whirlpool machines have a cheap painted surface that scratches, and looks dull because the clearcoat is wearing off the paint. The new machine does not clean your clothing, and is ready for the trash heap after 3 years.
Had a Maytag dryer like yours (an older model, but similar) several years ago that I picked up new for my parent's house. Motor would overheat and shut down during the cycle. After buying the new, realized the old Maytag just had a loose blower fan. The guy I gave it to is probably still using it...
New appliances are designed to fail so they can sell you outrageously overpriced replacement parts. It's their business model. I got my 1980's washer & dryer set from my parents & they are ridiculously reliable. I always cringe when I see my neighbors get suckered into buying these new garbage appliances.
Sad part of of it is, The company that built that Maytag also built that KitchenAid. Whirlpool. They ruined Maytag and KitchenAid. At one time you couldn't get a better dishwasher than a KitchenAid. Of course that's when KitchenAid was owned and built by Hobart Corporation.
nice find yes i agree too the new ones are crap these old ones were workhorses. we currently have a new mechine that still works but once it breake im going back to old school.
I with you on this one! Put my new washer that died out to the curb and got a 1999 Whirlpool that is old school like yours. Let's me set water level, runs fast, gets dirt out first time. Maytag is made by Whirlpool these days. Junk. Don't get me started on front loaders too. junk.
There are plenty of us on water meters/living in drought areas or who simply care about the environment who are glad of the machines that use less water.
Maytag was a fine machine when they were built in Iowa. Whirlpool destroyed their quality name. I have a 1983 Maytag pair that has never seen service, until I replaced the pump earlier this year.
My dad has the same POS MAYTAG WASHER I AM SOO HOPING IT DIES CAUSE ITS GARBAGE OMGG there’s a DEEP FILL ON AND OFF AND WHEN ITS OFF IT FILLS UP TO THE TOP
That "vintage" washer in not the belt-drive washers that were the work-horses manufactured from Whirlpool for many decades. It is the newer design that has alot of interior plastic in it's workings. That said.... it's still better than what's being made now..... with the exception of the Speed Queen "classic" washer.. model TC5.
That’s a bad idea because if your constantly using quick wash gunk and dirt will build up and longer cycles clean the machine so I recommend using longer programs 😃
@@superdylan803Newer washers should allow for a Clean Washer cycle. Either bleach or a qualified washer cleaner will remove all that excess crud, provided you clean it once a month.
You ran the permanent press cycle that is made for stuff like dress shirts… you should run the cotton cycle so it can Mach best to the laundry you are washing…
The good things about new machines are, they take on larger loads like king comforter. They spin items to super dry so the dryer finish it’s work with less energy. I still don’t like the new machines, they wash items in minimum dirty water. How can laundry comes out clean?
When using the proper amount of HE detergent, it will trap the dirt and oils from the dirty laundry. Excess water usage is no longer necessary with modern detergents and HE washers. Also, DO NOT pack your washer with clothes, no matter how large the capacity. Filling any washer to the brim will eventually lead to premature death or malfunction.
The older machines where better built vs todays stuff . At least you do your own repairs & parts weren’t expensive. Now everything is so ridiculously priced
In the State of Fl, the delivery agent is required to implement the “recycling” of any and all old haul-away appliances regardless of their condition.🤣🤪🆗
It's extremely irritating that new machines are so complex and do necessary things like sensing and door locking which make it take longer. Stupid engineers I swear.
Want an older washer, get a Direct-Drive Whirlpool or Whirlpool made machine like it (Amana, Maytag (old style), Sears Kenmore, or a KitchenAid - LIKE THIS ONE). Don’t get an High Efficiency One, they ALL GARBAGE.. Need a new one? Then get a Speed Queen. -Charles-
I had one of those new he washers it lasted for 2 years and the circuit board went out i bought a old kenmore direct drive washer took it apart replaced everything that i thought might go wrong,i will never own one of those pos new washers again
First of all you are comparing about of 10 minutes time, but is only for the washing cycle, whereas the 50 minutes is for the complete cycle that includes spin and rinse. In addition, the efficiency is that the vintage washing machine consumes about 600 W in the spin while the Maytag consumes 80 W. and even the spin is better, it leaves clothes drier in less time, the new washing machines do not have a transmission, only 2 cheap plastic gears very easy and quick to remove, whereas the vintage ones have complex and expensive transmissions that were full of oil and the most important parts of that transmission are plastic where it wears out fast and it is very complex and expensive to replace you have to remove the transmission (Big Deal) open it (it usually comes sealed cover with rivets that you have to destroy them using a drill ) take out the oil and change it get the affected parts including bearings and seals $$$$ install them close and reseal the transmission cover to perfection to avoid oil leakage, instead the new washing machines without, bearings, covers, gears, gaskets, oil and more ..... I agree that old washing machines last longer but also when they fail it costs a lot of money to fix.
Anything that's digital is nothing but junk. This Kitchen Aid is a good washing machine. I do have a Kenmore washer I purchased in 2006 as they were coming out with the digital.

they are still selling them mate in poor countries LOL
yes - it'll be like Cuba with cars around here after awhile.
It will be like due da due
Unbalanced loads cause it to use way more water on that maytag

so much waste of water with this machine and electricity. Also you are using way too much soap. Also clothes wear out fast with these old machines.
