This dryer is in my neck of the woods, and is now listed on Craigslist. Is this the washer that played a tune or something when the load was done? CLICK HERE TO GO TO dalangdon's LINK on eBay |

Dan, were you at one time using a vintage Westinghouse set like this in your home, or did I dream that? |

I had a set similar in looks to this one in my "sphere of influence" at one time, but the dryer on that one was 110v. |

I just realized that this dryer has a window! That makes it worth it right there. I think I am going to buy it. Who needs a TV when you can watch your dryer? |

Mike, that's a Frigidaire "gallery" front loader. It's about four years old. |

Actually Dan the way this dryer works is when a certain high temperature is reach it shuts the dryer off. You can set the dial anywhere and if that high temperature is reached the dryer goes into cool down no matter where the dial is. They put the "Dry" for Auto-Dry at the end of the dial to make sure it had plent of time to do its job. But very rarely would anything take more than 1.5 hours to dry.
