To me the ad seems to tote this washer as being JC Penney's "only offered", though certainly as a Flagship model, it is the only one that's really ad-worthy!

Any thoughts on this machine (and the dryer?), basically a Hotpoint clone by GE?

Control panel is ugly as a home-made mud fence. Compared to the high style of Hotpoint's earlier years when they had, in some aspects, more control panel than washer, this poor thing looks like a stepchild, or a Penny's product. Poor pathetic Penny's.

I agree that control panel is not too attractive; it reminds me of a three-eyed owl. I do like the knobs themselves better than those used on most Hotpoints at the time.

Keep in mind this was the 70's...
