These machines were always good performers in my books. I think the agitation stroke is at a nice sweet spot between the long-slow & short-fast strokes of other machines. And it's nice to see that your one is still alive and kicking after being in service for many years. Thanks for the video!

I had one from 1993 and it could clean anything from delicate fabrics to durable clothes with dirt caked into them. An example would be sturdy cottons with mud after a hard day of work or play.

Jerome, these two videos I recently made about the vintage Whirlpool dishwasher may interest you: kzread.info/dash/bejne/f2GNq7KKqM_gcps.html kzread.info/dash/bejne/jKajzMxwmJi8htI.html

Now that's a washing machine!

We have an 86 model at home, survived the old house demolition. When I was little I used to cover my ears when it was doing the spin because I was so scared of the sudden CLANK when it finished

My mom had a GE filter-flow 18 lb heavy duty … ran for over 35 years . .. she bought it in 1969

Workhorse.. These machines could tackle any size load. And it actually uses enough water.

I prefer old-school appliances like this over modern ones.

They perform better, are built to a much higher standard, and they just look plain cool. It’s taken maybe $100 worth of service in the past 41 years.

These products were built with quality !!!

My mom had this model ge filter flo she washed baby diapers in it. She bought it just before my brother was born in 1981

My mother had an 84 FilterFlo. It was a two speed. What mystifed me was that when using the regular speed, it would start at slow for the first 10-15 seconds and then ramp up. Why is this?

Probably as a measure to prevent wear and have a softer start, or possibly just an engineering convenience.

My 93 GE did that. It too was a 2-speed model.

The two speed GE filter flow washers used a clutch, so it started at slow speed when the clutch engaged it went into fast speed.

@@jeromedavis8575 that’s right they did not have two speed motors they use the clutch to control the speed. You could change the speed control from slow to fast, but you would damage it if you went from fast to slow cause it didn’t go backwards.

Very uncommon at this point. Almost any water appliance is now. FFs are particularly rare in my area but there’s a decent amount of later direct drive Whirlpool and every once in a while I’ve seen a belt drive 80s model.

I have regular jeans if that’s close enough, but I don’t own a pair of skinny jeans. It’s hard to film these cycle videos because there’s almost always someone home making background noise, but next time I get the opportunity I’ll record some more.
