That is a beautiful set!!
I'll never forget, however, the similar set we had when I was very young. More top of the line, than this set. I believe it had the mini basket/mini wash option, dryer was TOL to match. And actually, the dryer is what made the set memorable to me. The machines couldn't have been more than 3 or 4 years old at the time, and I wasn't much older....getting ready for school one morning suddenly the house is filling with smoke from the direction of the laundry room. Mom and I are home alone at the time, and she starts screaming for me to call 911. I got off the phone and went looking for her, to find her in the laundry room, furiously throwing everything out of the room. Meanwhile the dryer, still running, is burning hot to the touch, jugs of detergent, and bleach sitting on top melting; fumes in the laundry room so bad you could pass out....After the firemen got there, took the machine out the back door, they open it up and flames are just everywhere.....and the smell after it was out....yikes. I'll never forget that day....or that dryer. Or all the little plastic toys that mom had taken out of my pockets over time, and sat on top of the dryer, still there, melted to the top of the machine. Lucky that machine was made well enough to contain the fire until help came!
