Love CL. Kenmore Washer 4 years old

I love it! That's the same model exactly that I bought new on 8/22/86. Four years ago? In some ways I wish! I was a Junior in college at the time. The 82370120 was made from 1985 until the end of the Kenmore belt drives, sometime in fall 1986 or so. This was one of the last models available in fact. This is a 1983 general issue model, but prior to it had been a 82370100 first, then a 82370110 before the dash-20 (they changed lid hinges first, then the part number of the timer, both of which changed the revision digit of the model number...)

There was also a -30 model, but it was temporary in early 1986 and included a porcelain top and lid, as the standard was the DynaGuard. Must have been a temporary supply problem on the DynaGuard so they switched to porcelain parts for a bit then returned to the -20. Thanks to Kevin, I have one of the -30s in Almond. This was one of the top sellers in the line, so they had to keep output coming.

I am presuming that this machine has been serviced at some point by someone who isn't detail oriented, or the tub-ring would have bene put back properly!

Checkrate/Likes For BD lovers, the price is certainly right.
