Washer placement
This is the first Kenmore set that I've seen that would require the washer at the right, because of the right hinged lid. Some Kenmores had a rear hinged lid, but the dryers would be right hinged to determine placement. Here the dryer door folds down so it is not determining the placement.
Maytag, for many years, had the dryer left hinged, while the washers had a rear hinged lid. My 2001 Maytag dryer has a door that can be reversed.
Some other manufacturers had their machines designed for right or left washer placement. That way you would be more inclined to purchase the same brand, if you had your laundry area set up for the washer on a certain side.
I also love the "v" in front, like the "v" on sime cars (Cadillac) to signify a V-8 engine.
While $1000.00 may seem like a lot, that's what a new washer or dryer costs now, for a quality model.
