When I was a kid in the mid 1960's, I took apart a 1951 Whirlpool washer. It had an ultra-violet light that supposedly sanitized the wash load.

It was built with the same design that Whirlpool used until the early 1980's, when the direct-drive line came out.

My 1970 washer has only had the pump, and inlet water valve replaced in all these years.

Imagine a new machine lasting this long. Ain't gonna happen!!

Amazing what can happen on the early color TV forum.
