First generation of the flat-front Laundromat and redesigned Spacemates. I think this was 1965. Westinghouse turned from a drop-down "weigh to save" door and scale on the washer to a side-opening door to match their dryer. That didn't last too long; they brought back the "weigh to save" door within a few years.
The top of the line Laundromat washer was pretty spiffy looking. My mom got a middle of the line Laundromat about this time. |

We got a "flat-front" Westinghouse washer in 1964, though it could have been a '65 model. It was a more basic model of the washer in the rear console set in the ad. It wasn't that great of a machine, and was replaced by a Maytag in '73. |

Hey Rich,
John Lefever said these are 1964 and first year for a (Westinghouse) gas dryer. (In lovely oxidized pink, of course.)
