Those Roper built stoves are as nearly as bad as the washer & dryer are good. Maybe the gas versions are better, but the electric ones like my Aunt Julie had are lacking. |

1969 was the year Kenmores debuted the Enzyme Soak cycle. |

This looks like the two-speed model, is it? |

They are an 800 set and yes the washer should be 2 speed.

Interesting. This is an 800 series washer for 1970, yet the interior is the same as what was in the 600 series that year. |

Yes I’ve been doing a lot of research on Kenmore models and features. They sure had a lot of different models and also a lot held over from previous years and some rebadged. The large capacity washer that was introduced in 1967 had the 1964 style control panel for example. It seems they did stuff like this quite often. Another example is the 1966 pair that I have. They were ladies in 1966 but these were built in 1968 and badged Kenmore 900. The washer kept the three speed motor and the rotoflex agitator.

These were even worse than the electric models, they tended to develop gas leaks in the piping that had several pivots in it for the movable siding cook-top. They also had a complicated electric ignition system for the broiler in the top of the oven.
This range looks to be in really good condition in spite dirt on the outside, it does not look like it cooked many Thanksgiving feasts, good luck finding oven shelves and supports.
