2008 certainly has been a good year for finding dryers.....I have a load washing in the GE washer, and the dryer will be getting its first try out in its new home. GE sure made good appliances! | ||

Aferim!
"this model has the flint striker". Does this mean that the burner fires up just like a cigarette lighter?? I LOVED this style--GE featured their Programmed Washer for many years but I think this must have been the only year that the dryer looked just like the washer. Never knew about the back-lit controls. Boy would I like to find a couple just like those! An old dream is to find the first Heavy Duty 18 Model with the all-blue tub. I remember Macy's had one of those paired with the 31" huge dryer in Coppertone. One of the Masters of Saybrook College had that same pair in their apartment. Back then I was too shy about my appliance obsessions to even ask to look at them. They must have gone to the New Haven dump decades ago.

3 speed agiation/sky blue speckled porcelain wash tub
Hey Jimmy!, I know how it feels to find a gem like this!My sister,Leslie,had these in coppertone along with a matching dishwasher,wall oven with P7 self cleaning cycle and asbestus shield in between its double pane window,4 burner cooktop with Sensi-Temp and overhead controls and a 19 cu ft.bottom drawer freezer refrigerator with ice maker.She replaced the dishwasher with a 1980 KitchenAid Superba(which she claims she hated)and the washer took its final dump the same year.She replaced it and the matching electric dryer with the new Whirlpool belt drive with the electronic touch controls.The washer kept having issues with clothes like baby socks going over the inner tub and clogging the pump.The dryer drum rusted out in less than 2 years. | ||
