Hello. I am searching for an early to mid '90s Kenmore fully loaded direct drive in good condition. I am after one that has the 4 control knobs in either white, bisque, or black. Desperately searching facebook market place, offer up, and Craigslist to no avail.
I would also be willing to take a matching set if the dryer has a gas hookup. If anyone also has any insight how shipping these works, please let me know. I can pick up if you are near the Chicago land area. Below are pictures of what I am after. Thank you! |

The first machine you posted looks to be from 1988/1989. I see those a lot around here. I believe the higher end ones had the detergent/bleach/softener dispensers.
That white one is pretty much what I want. Only thing is, I'd rather have the variable water level control. I told myself if I am going to invest in another machine, it will have everything, even if I have to wait. That machine also appears to be pretty used... guess that's normal for 30 plus years lol. Would you be able to check and see if a black style control panel is available with the 4 control knobs? If you do find one, how do we go about transporting it? Is there a shipping service? |

The first one in the OP looks to have a triple (timed) dispenser array at the front of the loading area, a smidgen of it is visible at the right. The other model may or may not. Reply 1 has a centrifugal dispenser on the agitator. Reply 4, no. Reply 5, triple (timed) dispenser, not shown in the photos but referenced in the lid instructions. Looks to be the same model as the 2nd machine (pics 2 & 3) in the OP, so there's confirmation for it. |

I think this is what you're looking for. In St. Paul MN.

For reaching out to me and trying to get me the machine. Unfortunately it was sold and the ad had a misleading photo. I just want to take a moment to say how appreciative I am to Nick for trying to make this work. This forum has great people and that's truly amazing. Hopefully I'll get my dream machine one day.
