Not sure if these are Hitachi, Sanyo or some other Asian design. Rare to see matching dryer.

Not surprising that the listing is a Canadian auction - these compact GE sets were very popular here in the 1970s and 80s.  The Condo Conversion Craze had not really taken off, so many apartments did not have hookups for a full-size laundry set.   My second apartment in the mid 80s featured a Kenmore set - the dryer was stacked on a rack above the washer to save space.

I love that little set, the washer and dryer. I ended up with one of the washers earlier this year. I would love to have the matching dryer.

Hi Eric!

If you lived closer to NY/Canada border a trip to Ontario wouldn't be that much of a drive. *LOL*

Apparently dryer vented one way only, from under door.

Both that Philco fridge and "Rangette" range are seeing pretty decent action.

In particular someone really wants that fridge.

Those little GE dryers left lint everywhere! Lynn and I had a set of these in our first apartment and lint was a real issue! Talk about lint and all the damp/warm air too! We had to run the ceiling exhaust fan every time we ran the dryer! And it was S L O W! But it was only 120! Greg
