That's Maytag's post 1976 version of Harvest Gold
and the reason it is a solid color instead of shaded is because at the end of 1976 all the appliance manufacuter's got together and decided to offer all the same shades of colors on their appliances so people could mix and match brands and have the colors match, i.e an avocado GE dishwasher and Frigidaire refrigerator.
