Woodgrain

I agree - like I'm supposed to believe that someone (the manufacturer in this case) actually either sliced a piece of wood and covered this console or, even worse, carved the console out of a slab of oak.

Really????

A washing machine?

Still, we bought them.....

I have a Hotpoint washer that had the "Ye Ol Fake Woodgrain" on it-the metal top panel on the console was "woodgrained"Merely removed it-Top of the console is now a more professional balck color.BETTER!!Was removed after changing the water level switch adjustment so the tub would fill up.

The "Special" cycle used to have slow agitation and fast spin. Slow agitation to prevent damage to the fibers and fast spin to remove the water that wool holds. That was why the "G" program for woolens was in the orange Normal cycle of the 1958 LK. The spin speed was in the cycle in the timer, but the agitation speed was set independently and the Normal cycle was the only one of the three that provided the nigh spin speed. It also gave a warm rinse as did older GE programmed washers so that the change in water temperature would not cause the wool to draw up and shrink from temperature shock.

That machine probably dates from the 80s. A very similar one was in the home a friend bought new in Vero Beach in about 1985.

Wood grain on control panels: When that was put on stoves, John called them "wood stoves."

Hmm...Bulkhead...

Our friends, a couple, sold a set like it a few years ago when they moved out of Buckhead to Canton...hmm...
about 5 years ago...could it be?...

Don't think so. I bought this one not much over a year ago, would have to research to see exactly when. The sellers had remodeled their kitchen/laundry and were selling the appliances that came with the house.
