I do remember seeing this set at our local Sears appliance section of that store. There was also a couple that moved in across the street from us when I was in 4th grade who bought the washer like this one. I think her machine was a 1966 model. I do remember the unusual agitator it had, with no visible bottom piece and 6 agitator fins at the bottom. I know it was the fanciest machine I had ever seen. Her husband had replaced the washer from their 1963 set, but she still had the dryer.

Once again, Kenmore's flagship offers a wonderful array of cycles, options and features. If it spun at 1140, it would almost be an ideal washer.
Back in the day, I thought our 1960 Model 80 was more progressive as there was no old-school cycle dial to operate; but it was probably nice to be able to see the progression of the cycle. It lacked the fun of a percussive, rhythmic rapid advance timer, but I'm assuming it had the variable agitator which would more than make up for that, LOL. Jane Wyatt was looking good, as well. | ||
