GE filter-flo

I'd put a classic white 2-speed GE filter-flo matching set. I'd use normal speed 99% of the time.

Fridgidaire Control Tower set would look nice.

my opinion

1970s belt drive whirlpool imperial white set.

GMH Frigidaire washer cause they are just the best (despite mine being in bits at this current moment) and a Simpson Minimax 150, can’t go wrong with Simpson!

What everyone was probably buying at the time--a Sears Lady Kenmore set like maybe today's Pic of the Day...

Copper, Gold or Avocado Green...

Honestly, with me, I would put something a bit unusual

Potentially a semi automatic of some type, a Bock Speedry extractor, and then potentially either a Westinghouse front loading dryer or something like that is available, potentially a laundromat dryer

On a related note, does anybody know how long it takes for laundry to dry in a Westinghouse dryer? Specifically the American 240 V versions as my Australian built. Westinghouse dryer only has a maximum amperage of 10 A and takes about an hour and 30 minutes to dry a 4 1/2 kilogram 10lbs load

A Sears Lady Kenmore Set in Avocado like today’s POD, and a GM Frigidaire Set with a washer that has an Up & Down Agitator. The Frigidaire Set would be a Roller-Matic or a 1970-79 1-18.

I'd choose a 1970's GM Frigidaire 1-18 washer, and matching wide-mouth dryer.

I'd have...

A 1976 Maytag A108 and DE406 in avocado green.
