You may need to try a different speed like Delicate or Heavy and see if that works. In any case it's time to ether call the repairman or let FD have his way with it. :lol:

Either it has a "soak" feature you don't know about or the belt has bitten the dust.

Be sure to get one with half revs on the spin cycle.

Do you think you might consider a front loading washing machine? they don't have an agitator and use less water.

Frank, I have considered it.. the ones I've looked at are above what we can afford for now.. so I'll have to see where our budget is.. (because I've lost it.. :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol: )

Let's see according to the PM (M Thatcher) it was 2 bucket of canal water to 1 packet of bold.....I wonder if that is a metric bucket?
