1986 Kenmore Limited

The only Kenmore set in my Collection. 1986 Electronic Limited Edition. This is the first production run of a 27" DD electronic control machine. An Intersting fact I learned from Gordon when corresponding about the set when I bought it is that this machine was made before his 86 Electronic BD. The washer is all original and the dryer has only had a PCB board replaced.

the Limiteds are beautiful......

I had the 1988 and the 1995 versions........

what I liked about the 88 was that you could select a cycle, press start, after the dispenser minute, the tub would fill.....hit the water level to the lowest, once agitation starts, press the water level again to raise it, the washer will continue to agitate while filling until full.....this was great for a concentrate of detergent scrubbing, like socks, as it fills add more laundry.....

the 95 would not allow this, but I did like it for the "asterisk" that allowed you to override the detergent dispense.......

also the dryer with the 2 buttons, for the five second tumble to bring the clothes to the front for unloading.....your also missing the clothes hanger rack!
 
Gansky1 that '72 Kenmore in post 557151 is a beauty, really well styled. I'll post a picture of my BD Kenmore later on, I will get a new picture for everyone. The rest of the photos will be of Canadian machines. I saved the photos from Kijiji. Enjoy!

That last machine was Early to Mid 80s.

This is a Mid 80s to end of production for BD. I believe these were produced in Canada up until 1990ish, thats when they changed the control panel design.
