The model for sale on ebay is a 1959 Lady Kenmore. In 1960, this became the model "80" and the Lady Kenmore had more features and different styling on the panel. I have the 1960 LK set. This looks like a very nice washer - at least the "foundation" sounds pretty good and it could be a fantastic machine with a little work. John Lefever has a set of these - he had the dryer and I think Peter found the 59 LK washer in Atlanta.. This is the 1960 pair: |

That would be a 1959 Lady Kenmore - the 1960 has an additional 'row' of three buttons/toggles. I remembered this Lady the first time it came in - I'm sure it will be a nice addition to someone's collection. Ben CLICK HERE TO GO TO swestoyz's LINK |

One is plenty! Machine is a beauty, and probably very restorable. Love and laughter! Lawrence/Maytagbear |

Scott, that was the 1961 Lady Kenmore that touted the automatic water level in the advertising. Looking at the service info from Sears and talking with those who have worked on machines for many years yields no additional information about how it worked. There is nothing in the service info I read about that automatic system at all. All this might lead one to believe that it was in the catalog, but never made it to the actual machines... A big, fat lie ;-) From Sears?? Noooooooo! Couldn't be! |

This did stay in the club. Harvest gold from SD/PS won the auction. A beautiful machine to add to the collection for sure. Mike |
