Kenmore Slim Washers

[Chetlaham]

Does anyone know the story or deal behind these Kenmore slim washers? What was there intended installation? And what parts were made different so they could be slim?

To be honest I really like them and I think they look cute. It would be nice if Sears offered these as BOL models just for the fun of it. They make nice novelty as full size models.

Early direct-drives were all 24" width. I don't recall exactly when 27" width was introduced, may have been circa 1986 when belt-drive ended.

24" belt-drives were for tight-space installations ... apartment kitchens, bathrooms, etc. There's a brochure on AutomaticE for a WP 1958 "New Yorker" model. I have a 24" KM 110.81156100 \ C14107756 (1981).
