The GE pair is from 1976 - the year with the yellow/gold consoles.  The exact pair that I owned when I was fresh out of college.   lawrence

Went With The Wind Carol's line was 'I saw it in the window and just had to have it'!   lawrence

Melvin, Good catch - I missed that detail.  Was there something about top/lid finish that tended to sacrifice the quality?  Did WP tend to use less porcelain and more paint during those years?   lawrence

GE/Hotpoint washers from this era typically had their Data Plate located on the left side of the washer, near the floor, at the front of the side.  If you didn't look there you might check that location.   lawrence

Melvin, I had an inquiry this morning from him, asking if I was still interested.  He must have had another interested party and was going for the best offer.   Well, for his sake, I'm glad he found a buyer.   lawrence

My two favorites I had several new autos during the 1980's, but my favorites were 1) my 1983 Toyota Tercel; black coupe with manual transmission, sunroof and louvers on the hatchback - that car was FUN to drive; 2) my 1989 Jeep Grand Wagoneer; I felt sooo butch driving that car.  It was white...

The Contest As those of you who are Seinfeld fans may remember, in 'The Contest' each character puts a $50 bet on their ability to refrain from a certain personal form of gratification, and first thing the next morning, Kramer comes into Jerry's apartment, slaps his $50 on the counter and...

This range is also listed on ebay.  It was previously listed for $800 OBO.  I received an offer a lower amount as I was watching the listing.  The description states that everything works as it should, so I sent a question to the seller asking specifically about the Sensi-Temp element.  I never...

Nice! The right front element is a Sensi-Temp unit.   lawren

I was at an Alabama Power Company office this morning and saw this Speed Queen washer and the matching dryer.  I like the matte black color - from a distance.  But it is very textured.  I think once it were in use it would be very difficult to keep it clean.  There's enough texture on the...

Paul, Thanks for the information!  I was hoping that it was a true feature, but wasn't sure how WP would have accomplished this in 1956.   lawrence

In today's Whirlpool advertisement, the 'active' water temperature selection and the 'active' water level selection is red.  Is this a photoshop addition, or did the controls actually work that way?  And if that's what they did, how was that feature accomplished?   lawrence

Versatronic was a General Electric badge in the late 1960's.  It was used across several appliance types, with the implication of advanced technology in each product.  This range is a GE, I believe the lower oven is thermal and microwave.  There is not a storage drawer under the oven, but...

A laundry puck I believe that was Salvo.  Shows up from time to time as a P.O.D.   lawrence

Just the beginning First there are 'Tiles'.  Then 'Extra Action Tiles'.  Then 'Tiles with Bleach'.  Then 'Unscented Tiles'.  Then......   Same song, second verse.   lawrence

Patrick Thank-you for the additional information about this one.  My collection of GE appliances is incomplete - I am missing 1980 and 1981.  Good to know when this one was offered!   lawrence

Kenny, Wow what a looker.  This one is post-1976, so the color is 'Coffee'.  I looked through the catalogs that I have and it is not shown in any of them - with one exception.  The 1982 Sweets insert is the first year for OTR microwaves, and this particular range is shown under one of the...
