Martin -
To add a little more to Charles' info, Sears called these "All American" dryers, and they were intended to go with whatever washer was already there. There was no mathcing washer, not even something remotely similar. There were several versions of this dryer, this one seems the most common, but there was one with a plug door, Fabric Master thermostatic termination instead of Solid-State sensors, and a darker control panel. These were always interesting to me because they had Whirlpool tops on them without the trademark Kenmore indent. G |

It is ironic that the later match-all control panel design with the sliding cover to conceal the controls became so popular that a washer control panel was created to go with the dryer. |

and a darker control panel...........and that was the version the neighbors that lived next door and behind my family when I was growing up had. Mrs Catchings next door had the gas version and Mrs Sample behind us had the electric version and both were paired with the same plastic consoled Kenmore Washer....PAT COFFEY |

From what I remember of seeing these machines, it had timed air, a time cycle and an all-fabric automatic cycle, one heat level, the buzzer control was under the lint filter handle/lid, WrinkleGuard I- operated by a seperate timer hidden in the upper right rear panel.....
but for the people I have known to have a dryer back then, it was this model, like it was the only one Sears made...... The Woodwards The Carters 2 Aunts 3 cousins 1 brother and a buddy.........all had the same dryer.......like a conspiracy! does anyone remember the first dryer sheet?......I think it was Bounce.....ClingFree came as little sponge type sheets.....and remember the spray.... think it was 3 pumps into the dryer before you loaded your clothes to prevent static.... or how about when the Downy Ball was introduced |
