Yep Veg. I think the Sears catalogue phrase was " styling to complement any brand or model of washer" been a long time though, but something like that anyway. arthur | ||

I own this dryer in electic at the lake. It does work really well with large loads and nice to fabrics. It is getting squeaky, methinks it needs the new roller wheels and pully thingy. Was there ever a mathcing washer in this ramp console design? | ||

I have seen this dryer with the mini hamper door as well
When I was growing up my next door neighbor Mrs. Catchings had the gas version of this dryer and my neighbor behind me, Mrs. Sample, had the electric version and both of theres had the mini hamper door. Originally they were both pared with one of those ugly mid 1970's Kenmore washers that had the real cheap looking plastic panels.I too think it is a shame there is no matching washer for this style of dryer because I think that design is so cool.

When my next door neighbors moved in in 1987 or early 1988, they had a center-dial kenmore asher and one of these dryers, with full-width hamper door. I think they got theirs in the very early 70s at the latest befcause it had the metal door handle. Had wrinkle guard, soft heat, and possibly was electronic sensor controlled. They had that set up until about 7 or 8 years ago (at the most). It was a good dryer. They were both still running when they replaced them with matching WP pair.

I saw one of those at the salvation army long long ago (5 years) it was in really nice shape..Seems like though, the 1972 or 1974 Sears Catolog i have, had a nice washer similar to this one.... But then i could be imagining things... | ||

Chad, there was a washer that was similar to this, but it also had a very matching dryer. Austin briefly had this washer I"m referring to. It had a similarly sloped console. It was metach/chrome looking. The side whre the controls were, could be covered with a sliding door. The washer was one of those "alphabet" washer, letters A-G had preset selections for the cycles. There aws also a water level knob as well as a knob to allow auto water temp selection, cold rinse always, or cold water wash period. There was also a rocker switch for an optional 2nd rinse and had timed bleach & fabric sosftener dispensers. This may have been like a 1969 model or so. A buddy of mine from college, his mom had this machine. And it was abused. A BobLoad, that would have been a "small" load for what this woman put into this machine. And by the time I got around to heaering it, aorund 1974 early 19765, the machine was having a difficult time locking into agitation. It would begin to make a bad noise and stop agitating. Her solution? Stop & start it until it acted the way it was intended. I felt very sorry for that machine. The matching dryer was very nicely featured for the time and included the same sliding console cover.
