This video and some of the comments proves I haven’t lost it. 😊 Thanks for taking the time to record this. There must be some womb sounds that are close to this....tho it’s been quite some time since I heard those.....but this may seriously be my white noise go-to-sleep sound from now on. I love my 2002 Whirlpool 80 series and snatched an older Frigidaire at an estate sale for backup. The Kenmore...Going to replace the clutch today and she should be good for a long time still. Oh how I love the older things!

It's true but, washer lovers love to see the agitator in ACTION---along with the filter flo too but, ending the videos with the ACTIVATOR--4 really tops it off. This agitator is really great, I mean the wash action is so much better than I thought it would be. I like the way the ACTIVATOR 8-vane looks but this one washes so much better. Viewers also like the see videos of the agitator washing ALL size loads...from (SUPER) Extra Large which is maximum water level...where the water basically covers the high-vanes...large, MEDIUM and SMALL loads to see how well or just how the Activator 4 'turnover' the loads. Also, they like to see the agitator in action looking down into the tub having a complete OVERVIEW of the wash, rinse and spin action. Other great videos are maximum capacity wash loads to see how much or big a load the agitator could handle...example, how many bath towels, sheets, jeans---comforter the Activator 4 can power wash. I'm absolutely sure you can get a donated GE TRANSMISSION and BRAKE component from ( automaticwasher.org) club. Someone would be happy to help you get 'her' runner her BEST from the club. Open a thread on the site and you'll see.

FYI, the spinning speed is faster and the brake works much quicker than this. You should post this video on automaticwasher.org. to let all of the GE washer fans see how awesome this agitator is.

They used this design from the 1950s to 1995. Very good machines! I love old GE washers. Was replaced with the Profile in 1996. The Profiles weren't so bad, it's just that they did not have the durability of the Filter Flo models.

Are you near a railway? I can hear what sounds like train horns 21.06-21.25 🙂
May I please request some videos, could you make a full WASH, RINSE and SPIN of a 'maximum capacity' wash load where the water level is *SUPER* extra large (water covering the high vanes)...a video of how many bath towels can fit and be washed load...a largest comforter wash...whites and mixed laundry load videos. It will also be cool to see how the Activator 4 washes at different water levels---MEDIUM and SMALL load size washes when you can look down into the washtub, so you can see the TURNOVER of the smaller loads.

It's true but, washer lovers love to see the agitator in ACTION---along with the filter flo too but, ending the videos with the ACTIVATOR--4 really tops it off. This agitator is really great, I mean the wash action is so much better than I thought it would be. I like the way the ACTIVATOR 8-vane looks but this one washes so much better. Viewers also like the see videos of the agitator washing ALL size loads...from (SUPER) Extra Large which is maximum water level...where the water basically covers the high-vanes...large, MEDIUM and SMALL loads to see how well or just how the Activator 4 'turnover' the loads. Also, they like to see the agitator in action looking down into the tub having a complete OVERVIEW of the wash, rinse and spin action. Other great videos are maximum capacity wash loads to see how much or big a load the agitator could handle...example, how many bath towels, sheets, jeans---comforter the Activator 4 can power wash. I'm absolutely sure you can get a donated GE TRANSMISSION and BRAKE component from ( automaticwasher.org) club. Someone would be happy to help you get 'her' runner her BEST from the club. Open a thread on the site and you'll see.

There used to be a post that John L made about a FilterFlo he knew of that had a defective brake since it was new and it worked for a decade so I'll just let it be. It's not worth putting a new trans in since it does work.

AWESOME video, really appreciate them but, ah yeah where is the rest of it (lghh) we wasn't able to see the ACTIVATOR 4 in action during the rinsing cycle as well. There aren't any videos with this GE straight 4-vane agitator in action. This agitator is powerful and turns the load over fast. FYI, the spinning speed is faster and the brake works much quicker than this. You should post this video on automaticwasher.org. to let all of the GE washer fans see how awesome this agitator is.
