More ceramic cook tops. I remember my mother had a range with a ceramic top, but she broke it, and I can't remember how.

WOW
My grand ma had the Kenmore washer For $289.95 on page 4!

now I know the exact washer she had! That kenmore out washed most washers even on heavy loads.

Very nice. Ya notice the lower ovens were bake only, thus no upper element for broiling or to help balance the cooking performance. Tom & John have both discussed these types of ranges offered by sears.
 
An aunt of mine had the 1st washer in the lineup in Post # 530452 matched up with the dryer on the right in Post # 530453.

I remember the time I heard the washer run with the cranking sounds of the DAA due to the long centerpost it had.

Thanks for sharing the scans. They bring back memories of the Sears catalogues of that time, and of what a thrill it was to walk through the rows of these machines at Sears where occasionally there was a live demonstration. Great fun it was.

Have a good one,
James
 
Just about everyone had the mid-range dishwasher on page 1180.

My grandma had the Lady Kenmore dryer on 1168. It was electronic. The "timer knob" was more of a time or dry level selector. The starter was "touch start". You didn't have to hold the button in.

I remember me, a 7 year old kid teaching a 50 year old woman how to work the dryer, lol.
 
Something for everyone!

Thank you so much for sharing these!  Reminds me of how I used spend hours leafing through those ol' catalogues...

You even posted the page showing a dishwasher that I actually own - right down to the avocado green!!    Thank you!!

 
 
soooo cool

growing up the people across the street had the 30" gas range in harvest gold I always loved the the backsplash with the pic of the pots and salt and pepper shakers....

<span style="font-family: georgia,palatino; font-size: medium;">Brings back so many memories!  </span>

<span style="font-family: georgia,palatino; font-size: medium;">I can remember looking at the Sears Catalog over and over again, never becoming bored of most of the book that I memorized!</span>

Weren't we just talking about and enjoying pictures of the microwave (here branded Sears) with the drum-selector cooking guide?  Wonder if that changed power levels on this model or was indeed just a guide.

 

I always thought that smooth-top drop in range was so beautiful with the control cover.  Having had opportunity to use one of the Kenmore smooth top ranges from this time I could see the need for the control cover, close it up and eat out!

 
 
 

Can't say for sure, but the Panasonic model that I knew, I believe rotating the guide drum did change the power level (possibly just between two levels (high and defrost).  I recall hearing/feeling microswitches click when it turned.
 
me i had the dishwasher with a timer knob in portable version in harvest gold as a kid work very well when my mom redid the kitchen she wanted to keep it but conver it to a built in model and my godmother had in white the model with the white start push button portable and converted it after she move to be built in lol
