Ugh!
I have never been able to make my peace with GE's use of a toe kick on dryers when there is none on the washer. No matter how much the consoles look alike, that toe kick makes GE pairs look un-paired.
It doesn't even make any sense. It's the washer you stand very close to when unloading. You typically don't get all that close to a dryer when you're putting stuff in or taking it out. Weird. Sorry, GE fans, but it is. | ||

 Originally this space had a functional purpose - that's where the door opening pedal was located, and Tom's right, on the upper models GE used a black panel and chrome trim to mimic the dryer. But when GE introduced the HUGE dryers, even the dryer lost the toe space. That would have been a good time to delete the recess on all of their dryers, but they didn't. Hotpoint took another approach to making the pair match, they placed an infill panel in the recess. JCPenny's appliances had the same infill panel and I always thought that was a good "fix" to the situation.

1979 JCP washer
My Grandma Janson had the HP rim-flo version of these in her senior Apt. building in the NW Suburbs of MPLS. Lot's of noisy splashy fun. The fast agitation stroke and spin drain was quite wild compared to Mom's 75 WP and Grandma Strand's 76 Lady Kenmore. Even though the WP rolled clothes faster with it's Surgilator and the LK could even handle horse blankets with it's 26 Gal tub and DAA.
