My wife & I are really tired of these so called HE washers that squirt half a gallon of water on clothes to do a full load. Having done a WEEKS worth of research we've come to the conclusion that top loaders & front loaders are not for us.
A neat article here: http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052748704662604576202212717670514<a href="http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052748704662604576202212717670514">
Let's say HORAAAY! to old washers. I know we are in the minority perhap but my wifes parents had theirs for over 25 years without a hiccup. The occasional belt, solid FULL tub of water, a good rinse and the washer never stunk. A neat video of some old washers I came across that many of you may recognise. Man, I can't wait to find one and get clothes clean again. Cool video below and some of them you might recognize. The song is by the Troggs. A British band. Woot!
Any tips on sourcing one gents? I'll take the wisdom of someone who has shop and serviced them for thirty years over a kid in Best Buy or Home Depot any day. I'm looking for THAT person.
