Look like Hotpoints, but they may also be a Penncrest set (which was made by Hotpoint)!

Nice models, if not TOL, very near.  About 1973.

And they were both Filter Floosies. Is that a "Big Door" dryer?

Hotpoint

Rim flo washer with hand wash agitator made by GE.
A real hybrid...GE cabinet with a Hotpoint lid and console!
I'd get them in a minute if I was closer and they're a rare pair!
Love that style!

These are likely 75-76 models, you can tell by the newer style timer knobs on both. The earlier knobs didn't have a hand-grip, just round with gripping nubs around the outside. IIRC, CR dinged them for the knobs, CR was correct, if your hands are wet, they are hard to turn.

The washer appears to be one step down from the TOL models, unless the TOL feature set changed from the first of the "Filter Floozy" (LOL) models like my '74 Lady Executive. One step down wouldn't have had the automatic detergent dispenser and instead have a small "Cuff and collar" scrub board under the lid. I believe it would have had a soak & hold and automatic soak/prewash instead of the soak timer as on the TOL.

Hotpoint knobs

I don't know what was up with them using those hard to grip round knobs. One of my friends had a 70's Hotpoint range, and ended up replacing them with GE control knobs.

Gorgeous Machine.
