Irrc, I think these are well sought after.

They've both been tested to confirm there working, and seem to be in great condition. The washer is $40 and I think the dryer is, too, but, I couldn't get over there to actually read the tag.. If anyone wants the details, PM me. It's in North Carolina.

Somewhat near Ashville. Winston Salem is like an hour away from the shop :)

An A208 washer and a 606 dryer.

The washer's control panel will need repainting; there's a lot of Spray 'n Wash damage to the Sunglow gold-painted area.

So, I'm wondering, are these rare at all? Anything really special about them?

These machines are not particularly rare. They are collectable, though, in my opinion. The great thing about Maytags from this era is that they are built like tanks and you can still get many of the parts needed for repairs quite easily.

1-speed washer....

i clicked the magnifying button on the picture & i noticed the washer has the "automatic" button & 3 water level buttons, making this a single speed, fabricmatic, standard capacity washer. so, would that make this an A108 instead??

Christina, I didn't magnify but suspected the same thing.

 

The washer is an entry level machine for sure.

The Whirlpool set to the left is the real prize if you want great performance.
