DD Kenmore These are DD washers.Just looking at the tub opening gives it away.I think it is a 24" model. It also looks like there is a clothes guard or tub wring in the basket.First generation DD looks to be. Pat | ||

One thing that is interesting about these first generation DD machines is the fact that they spin-drain. The DD's only did that for a couple years before Whirlpool went back to a neutral drain. At the time, I thought a Kenmore spin-draining and going faster than 525 RPMs was pretty cool. A spin-draining Whirlpool/Kenmore could be a rare machine someday. In fact, it is amazing that this one is still working.

How to tell....... I was over at a friends house last night. I went in her laundry room and she has a 70 series kenmore washer. Is this a belt driven machine. How can a person tell ? | ||

DD washers Having experienced a DD for 15 years without a major mechanical problem ever,I feel the DD deserves it's place as a future classic.Let's face it,future washer nuts will see DD as classic machines YAY! | ||

I don't think it should really be amazing.These DD have proven themselves to be real workhorses.With our old WP, the timer dial failed and the bottom of the cabinet rusted out.The mechanism was still rock solid. | ||

DD Pushing 23 Years The DD has been around since late 1981, so it's pushing 23 years. Glen. | ||

23 years in existence? WOW... Who pioneered DD first, Whirlpool or Kenmore? Also, when did the first DD Dual-Action agitator come out? | ||
