I am in need of asecond washer/dryer and finally decided on an older Kitchenaid Washer/Dryer set.. I think they look better than the whirlpools and have more class than a kenmore..Plus I like the top mount lint filter
IS there any reason I shouldn't hunt for a pre 1998/1999 KA Washer/Dryer? My other ideas for washers are: Neptune, Center Dial Tag or a Filter Flo.. no matter what im getting a whirlpool hamper door styler dryer Here is the set I am looking at, its in Seattle though... Gonna have to see if i can finaggle abit or somthing since its a 3.5 hour drive up and $60 in gas CLICK HERE TO GO TO ilovewindex's LINK on Seattle Craigslist |

That'd be a nice set. Has all the "classic" KA laundry features. Extra Wash cycle should run a short prewash, brief soak, partial drain, then refills and continues the Heavy cycle. |

I had a KitchenAid top-loader for a few months in 1989 and it was a fine machine. The KA's dual-action agitator and fins are larger than the one used in Kenmore/Whirlpools; consequently, the KA's fast agitation speed is the same as medium speed on a KM/WP. In other words, it doesn't thrash quite as fast.
The heart wants what it wants. Go for it! |

The ad expired this am and its not relisted yet.. But i am keeping looking for a KA Set and see if this re appears...
Frigilux that is good to know.. I primairly will use this for towels, shorts and such... Or soaking my sheets... Driving 7 hours back and forth to seattle is no big issue, i just coordinate pickup on a day i have treatment (i go to U of W for medical treatment) Did the ever make a grey/dark speckled tub model? Are the newer (98 to 2003/2004ish) just as good |
