    My friend had this washer many years ago with the GE name on it and it didn’t have the water selection button other than that it was the same washer in harvest gold. I did many loads of laundry in it for him it worked fine. Even made the same sounds, boy does that bring me back to another time in my life. What a great find enjoy it!

    Thanks for the comment but you're wrong. This impeller not only spins them around, it actually has a great rollover.

    I have the ge version. It’s still in the box. It only has one knob. I’m guessing it only does cold loads

    That's cool! Nope, it doesn't do cold loads only, but it connects to a kitchen faucet where you can choose the temperature. Can you email me some pictures of it? Where are you located?

    Hoover and Maytag used U shaped tubs and had one or two impellers on the back wall of the machine and they you manually put the clothes in a separate spin dryer. The GE works much better!

    I see this unit is connected with both hoses to water lines so it's semi portable and uses the temperature selection knob. If hooked to the sink with a single hose your faucet would control your water temperature

    Exactly. It gives the option to connect to a sink, as a portable washer or, if you prefer, you can connect it to regular washer hookups and two hoses.

    Portable doesn't mean for camping. Portable means that the user can move it next to a sink, connect it temporarily and after use store it in a closet or elsewhere. That's the technical definition and understanding of what a portable washing machine is.

    Sim, o impeller dela é minúsculo, lembra aqueles tanquinhos dos anos 80. A água está a 84 graus, o limite do meu boiler. aos 85 graus estoura a valvula de alívio de emergência e corta a água.

    It's not shocking. this washer is actually quite efficient for the size. The load for this demonstration video (a test load, not actual clothes) that wasn't a full load and actually should've been washed in low water level.

    Indeed, not the best. But 50 years after the manufacturing date it's still doing a fairly good job. Actually it's quite impressive.
