I stumbled upon this nice pair of '69 Lady K's at an estate sale this weekend. They looked almost brand new. As I lifted the control doors open, I could hear the starters flicker and was greeted with nice bright illuminated consoles! The tub looked clean in the washer and had some cobwebs...

ADDITIONAL PHOTOS Here are some additional photos showing the insides of the control panels and also some "night shots" of the consoles all lit up...

It was another good weekend of estate sales and I stumbled upon another matched washer/dryer set that was calling my name to be saved: A 1968 Sears Lady Kenmore set in Avocado! When I went to unhook them, I needed a set of pliers to release the corbin clamps on the discharge and suds saver...

Thank you all for the kind words! For the time being, I'm going to keep these on display in my basement. I've been using my '73 avocado 1-18's as my daily drivers up in the laundry room since 2010. So far those have been doing quite well and will perhaps switch them out with these in the...

I came across these purely by accident this weekend. I went to a local estate sale only because it was a nice looking original home. Once I walked in, it was obvious nothing in the home had changed since 1968. Original owner home, totally untouched. All original kitchen with all Frigidaire...

I went to a local estate sale on 11-22 and spotted a matched pair of Avocado Frigidaire 1-18's in the basement. They are 1977 models and were still attached and in service. They were $50 bucks for the pair, so I thought that was a good deal. They were somewhat difficult to get out of the...

Thanks guys! Phil, thanks for the great info on the colors and also for providing the link for the replacement lint filter. I will go ahead and order one of those. My original filter not only broke, but the majority of the frame has melted too. I like seeing that the replacement also has a...

I was searching Craigslist the day after Thanksgiving and spotted this Frigidaire LC-3 unit from 1975. The listing was 17 days old by the time I found it, so I didn't have high hopes that it was still available. I later noticed that someone had previously posted the listing for this machine in...

I'm shaking the trees a bit...Looking to see if anyone has spotted any Avocado Frigidaire 30" electric ranges or built in dishwashers throughout their recent craigslist searches? Now that I recently found a clean Avocado refrigerator, it got me back into the search for the complimentary...

Thanks for the info Goatfarmer. Is there a chart that indicates the model year for Frigidaire products? It looks like the model year can be estimated from the suffix letter in the model, but the serial numbers do not contain date code information. Is this correct? Thanks Doug

Thanks all. Bob, I'm still looking to find an avocado dishwasher, preferably a Frigidaire from the same vintage (late 60's/early 70's). I still have my Maytag set, they've been saved in the basement and have not used them. I'm still using my avocado 1-18's in the laundry room which is on...

Frigidaire owners manuals. Always search the house for old manuals! They usually will be found somewhere in a box down in the basement that was forgotten about.
