That WP dryer looks almost generic, like it was drawn by an 8 year old... but descibing that washer also as "OLDER?" What year would you say that washer is... it can't be older than mid 2000's? | ||

Actually, this was a decades old Kenmore console design....
That Whirlpool took out of the leftover Tupperware bins and re-heated. I remember this model well - I nearly did a triple-take when I saw it on the floor of an appliance dealer in town in the very early 1990s.
This model came right on the heels of another Whirlpool dryer that still used the console and graphics of the LHA series from 1979/1980 production, except what was flat black on the LHAs was dark brown and black on this one-off dryer. It was current for at least four years with WP, then this model showed up, but for nowhere near as long a period of time. This is the console styling, right down to the textured/brushed aluminum double-slanted top, that Kenmore used in mid and upper level models in 1974 and 1975, right before the debut of the wet-look black panel washers. Why WP would come up with a dryer in this panel is a complete mystery, but you could have put this next to a 1974 washer and had a semi match. Here are a couple examples of the originals, this one is a 1975 KM 500:
