This set is the older style with access panels from the back for the washer........I like the style of these with the grey bottom kick panels and stainless trim band at the top of each.....since I didnt have a Maytag set, these are going to be keepers, at least for a while.........

If I had to choose just one pair of machines to do my laundry for the rest of my life it would be a pair like that. Simple workhorses that do their job well and dependably. Truly a great addition to your already great collection. | ||

VERY nice, Jimmy!! Were those called "Super Highlanders"? Have you figured out what year they are from yet? They were workhorses, that's for sure. Simple and dependable; who could ask for more! :-) Congratulations! | ||

Not sure of the year of these, hoping a member could help out with that. I think they are from about 1962-1964.......Ive repaired hundreds of these models when I was working for the dealers during my summer college jobs, but I never really knew how to date/year Maytags....... | ||

I narrowed my A300 down to 1964. It's the single-speed version with the same looking console. | ||

Dates ... Jimmy ... I think the washer is from September 1963 if the end of the serial number is "LW". I can't make out the end of the serial number on the dryer, however. Geoff | ||

Michael, the "crown" as you call it, is a one timer increment for the spray rinse. There is like one minute or two minutes of more spinning after that. Then the increment which stops spin (I think I remember that right) then it starts filling and after one increment then the timer turns off until water level switch has been satisfied.

Simply, well Simple Hi Jimmy, That is a great set and looks like they will just keep on working for a long long time. Clean, simple, and dramatic. Well, 2 out of 3. Hope to see you soon! EMP | ||

Nice set you have their Jimmy, nice and simple but Maytag quality through and through. They will just go about their duty quietly and non complaining. I noticed that the cord for powering the washer comes out by the water inlet hoses. How odd that Maytag would do that(god forbid you open the lid and see what is going on inside HA HA) you would think that Maytag would have had the power cord away from water as power and water don't mix. But I guess it all worked out ok. The HOH dryer may be a bit slow (4800 watts ??)on drying but what the heck, everything else today goes by too darn fast anyway. Enjoy them! Doug | ||
