Although I once owned a 1971 Lady Kenmore washing machine and loved its ease of operation and flexible features, I find it interesting that Sears touted its 1970 machine as the “world’s most perfected washer.” That’s quite a statement! Wonder if there was any official data to substantiate that claim? Other manufacturers were using the same no-thinking push-button operation at that time...

Note in the upper row of buttons that the "Cottons/Linens White" and Permanent Press White" have a magenta strip (as do the "Colored" selections) instead of a white one. Was that how that washer originally appeared or did they alter the white strips with the magenta? |

Well, I don't know of anyone who was offering more features for the PRICE POINT as Kenmore was. |
