In Today's Picture of the Day, does anyone else find it strange that there is no temperature setting on this TOL dryer, just an "All Fabrics" button. And the dial to adjust the "dryness control" is located on the back of the machine, so you have to pull the dryer out to adjust this? My '57 Lady Kenmore has a infinate heat control that works really well. |

Is this model similar to the Maytag Electronic? I wonder how this model works? I be curious to see the wiring diagram. Bob |

Funny they would put the dryness control on the back of the machine; It was inside the console on my parents' 1960 Model 80 (which was all pushbutton), as was the fragrance-dispensing bottle. I still want to know how the '61 LK washer sets water levels automatically. We see LK's in our members collections from many different years, but not '61. That's odd, isn't it? |

Is this a new POD i have never noticed this one? Must of been quite the "deal" for it's time. I can't imagine pouring a quart of water in that door sprinkler tank. alr2903 |

Far as the temperature, could this be a "Soft Heat" dryer, where you didn't adjust the temperature but rather it adjusted itself as the clothes dried? |
