I had a similar Whirlpool, they have retractable casters. This one is a little later than the one I had, I think this one has a teeny-tiny tub. Mine had a not quite standard capacity. | ||

I have this one too...
Mine is in almond and it a 1984 year model. This machine is designed to be convertable hense the additional knob for temperature selection. It does not have retractable hoses so they can be removed for regular permanent installation. Mine had only been used a couple of times and was still pretty much brand new with the styrofoam backing and everything still in it.
Speaking of the suspension springs though. One of the bolts came loose during the drive from D.C. to Portland. My Westinghouse washer had a broken belt so it was inop and this Kenmore was my only hope. It was kind of making a banging noise when it went into spin and all of the sudden the tub dropped hard to one side. GREAT!!! Luckily I remember picking up a large bolt that I found in the moving trailer not knowing what it was but kept it anyways. Thank goodness!!! Put that back together and it's a very quiet machine once again. Perfect for very small loads. I mean VERY SMALL. | ||

On My Harvest Gold Whirlpool "Convertible"
One can use the portable hook-up arrangement with a "quick connect" uni-couple as with porti dishwashers, or do the separate drain and fill hose (using either type of faucet adapter, permanent or quick-connect). One caps of the "hot" water inlet and sets the machine to "cold/cold" or "warm/warm". In this manner wash and rinse temps are controlled at the faucet.
OTHO as the machine is "convertible" to a "standard" machine, one can hook-up both hot and cold water hoses as with a normal sized unit, with separate drain hose. | ||
