1969 GE Filter Flo Washer Model 1WA743E2W
This is the first time that this washer has been operated in about 10 years.
After this video was recorded, I began dissassembly in preparation of repairing rust and small holes in the bottom of the outer tub.

My mother bought one new in 1968. Loved the mini basket for super small loads, really loved the filter on top of the agitator. Worked like a champ for years. Wish I could find one today.
the best washer made... always loved the lint filter... helped with keeping lint off the clothes and dryer

Great washer a 1969,it's near my age im53now.🙂
GREAT video for washing machine geeks everywhere! It's nice to see appliances be restored and reused. Thanks!
the best washer ever... too bad GE doesn't make this type of quality now
Look at the power in that agitator and motor. None of today’s washers even come close to this water action.
We had one of these when I was a kid.

love the old filter flo. Those suckers were POWERFUL!!
So gorgeous I wish I have something like this doing laundry with this washers seems very fun
I love aspects about this washer, but during the agitating stages I can't help but get anxiety over those towels being ripped apart. LOL

Para eso son las lavadoras se supone que no rompen la ropa.
Armstrong was on the moon in 1969. This washer lasted a long time
Nice Filter Flo!
I will buy it!
Really good washers-but two things-the big rubber transmission boot can be pulled loose or torn if a very unbalanced load occurs-then when the machine tries to fill again, water just pours out onto the floor-also-if you change speeds with the machine running-it will break the clutch-it is okay to switch from Gentle to Normal-but never the other way around.
Best turnover I've seen in an agitator machine. Impressive. Equal to early Frigidaire action.
Most Likely it's the Boot

"That's giving the truck a good shake!" LOL!
We had one of these. Where is the filter ring that fits around the top of the agitator?
Beautiful.

Una joya🤗😍
If I recall, this particular washer has three agitating speeds, if it had a ramp style agitator, it would be awesome. Does anyone think that GE will bring these washers back?

When washers were built, like tanks.
built to stay the GE way!
Alguien me puede ayuda por favor. Tengo una y no se como iniciar a usar el panel de lavado.
GE wouldn't be able to make them fast enough to keep up with the demand if they were to bring back the great filter flo! Govt. regulated he washers suck.
I loved,l wil love to have this washer.😆.
I will make this in my Roblox studio
That was fun thanks
Why did GE washers start agitating more slowly for a few seconds when set on normal?

+Randy Hansen it has to do with the clutch. the older the machine got, the more hesitation on the clutch engaging. That is also the cause of that distinctive sound it makes before fully engaging. I could be fixed, but is probable not worth it because It does not harm the washer as far as I know, it is just they way it is made.

Actually all of the 2 speed ge washer did this, there isn't anything wrong with the clutch. That is how they are designed.
Did you ever find the source of the leak? I'd love to see the machine in it's restored condition.
this is so fab!
how a washer should work. not the crap of today
too bad they don't make them like these anymore....
washes better than a speed queen im new on youtube and im 11

Simply stated......... They don't make appliances that sturdy and long lasting anymore..........
Does this washer use springs or hooks for the inner tub to keep it balanced?

I know this is 9 years late but it is the left wing progressives that are pushing for all this "save mother Earth" crap. Don't matter what side of the aisle you are on.
The new crap that is being made (that lasts about 5 years) is just downright poor.
Somebody's copying your video.
They would tear your clothes up if you weren't careful.
Will chew your clothes up though

Not really. Clothes were made a lot better when these machines were made....when our clothes as well as our appliances were made in the USA.
This is a bad washing machine

GEs in this era were great working machines. My mom had the Sears Lady Kenmore back than. Another great machine which lasted for years. Had to replace it in June of 83 with a whirlpool. These GE s handled suds locks welll though the Sears machine not so much.
