1981
These look like the 1981 version. Fun machines, definitely worthwhile.
Go get 'em!

They do look very "Brand New".
Wonder what the story is.
Great washer and FANTASTIC DRYER! I wonder if the dryer is electric or gas....
I hope someone from the club grabs these.
I had this set in the same color in 1985. They were hand me downs from my Mom.

Km Electronic set
IIRC These are Late 70's LK's. The LTD's were DD washer and easy loader door dryers using full electronic controls. I have an all original set of the first year of them in 1986. This is what they look like.

There is a 1981-84 Lady Kenmore Belt-Drive Electronic Set down in the Florida Keys in the Miami area. They are in Coppertone, and are BRAND NEW (!!!!).
Would you by any chance be interested in THIS set???
That would mean a trip down to Florida. How far is the location in Florida is from Charlotte (LOL)???

Coffee Lady Kenmore Pair
These are nice and you will probably never see another Coffee pair this nice, the dryer looks to be electric based on the cord.

Beautiful set. I always loved how Sears showcased these, especially by hooking up and running them on display. They really knew how to market.
KM LTD's
I do not mean to sound arrogant but I belive the Pic I posted is of the only ALL ORIGINAL PARTS 1986 KM LTD with it's matching dryer in almond with the original sales papers known to ths club. As far as I know another one of these parameters has not turned up anywhere. While my modest collection is not much to crow about these machines are.

Gordon, how can you bypass having the ability to have coffee with the Ladies for years to come!!! Just think of the sheer gentele times of a bygone era with these true southern Ladies.

Super Quiet
And with that thin belted drive, these would be super quiet.

Coffee Lady Kenmore Pair
Hi Malcolm, WP was no longer building washers with the thin quite Pac belt by this time, the only thing that was different on this washer was it did have better rubber motor mounts and they only used the quieter Emerson motors by 1982 as GE and WP were feuding and WP stopped buying any GE motors for their appliances.

Ah
Thanks for the information. It's tough to keep track of it all.

I called about these - they've sold "a few weeks ago" the seller says. Would have been a nice deal, and would have been interesting to ascertain what "practically brand new" meant.

Quiet pack belt system
Looks like the last Kenmore machine that I can see in my model listings to use the 96388 quiet pac belt was a 1979 Kenmore 80-series 24-inch machine. Not sure about the WPs, and I have no idea why Kenmore would have spec'd this in just one 24-inch model that year. I think prior to that the 1975 Kenmore 70 and the then current 1974 Lady Kenmore were the chief models to use it.

I'm still kicking myself in the ass for getting rid of this identical set in white a few years ago. Wonderful washer and dryer.
