Who made this dryer? How much is a good price to pay for one? It's at a garage sale.

That's a Sears/Kenmore, early-mid 50s. Pretty sure made by Whirlpool. Does it work correctly? The lower the price the better. Also depends how badly buyer wants it. I would say no more than $100.00. With somewhere between $25.00-$75.00 being more realistic. IIRC someone else here picked one up not that long ago for $35.00?

Whirlpool dryer
From somewhere in the 50's. They also built for Kenmore non-stop.
There's a surprising amount of part still available, these old gems usually are easy to tune-up and run for decades, obviously. Price under $100. closer to 50, it ain't new, it ain't efficient, but it will get the job done and is likely fun. Ont thing I learned about these, use white lithium grease on the rear drum spindle, not oil, or it will start to screech again in a week. | ||

Is that the Whirlpool logo on the paperwork? I recognized the control panel as being Sears/Kenmore. So I guess back at that time the Kenmore badged models weren't made to look different from Whirlpool? This post was last edited 08/19/2016 at 13:33 | ||

Well if it's still for sale after work I'll pick it up. | ||
