Yes, they're not perfect... they're over 40 years old, but still soldiering on. I got them second-(third-? fourth-?...)hand in 1992. I was stationed at Fort Knox with a new wife and baby, needed a washer and dryer, saw an ad in the post newspaper from a couple that was getting stationed in...
Oops. Picture four posted twice.
But here's the rub. You guys just told me that my set is junk, but NINE YEARS AGO, folks on this site were gushing about how valuable they are.
Which is it?
OK, here's some more info. I was looking for some parts for my washing machine (specifically a new water pump), and googled images "Kenmore 800". It led me to this thread from 2004 on this site:

Now, I'm not necessarily interested...
