PINK whirlpool washer and dryer

[thaomein]

I've just moved into a custom built home from the 1950's, these appliances came with it! It's immaculately kept, everything works!

PINK wahser dryer

I live in Denver, CO. I would like to keep these items for a month or so, but I would love for someone to give them a good home! Let me know, I have a pink oven, fridge, dishwasher... all immaculately kept!

O M G!

I sent the pics to Brenda. She's having a conniption fit.

Good Lord Jesus God Almighty....have mercy on us.

Is there really a suds-return ?

They look brand new and they're breath-taking.

Guessing mid-to-late sixties, so they're 40 years old, looking better than most humans of that age. Tickle, tickle.

 

[DADoES]

I'm gonna make a guess at 1964. The model numbers would tell for sure.

PINK appliances

Please checkout my myspace page for photos of ALL the appliances. I LOVE all items, but my husband and I want modern appliances (blasphemous I know!). We JUST bought this house, I found this site and I'm grateful that there are fans of these appliances!

Interesting machines, and definitely well-maintained! The washer is a 3-speed with the Super Wash option; the original Surgilator appears to have been replaced at some point with a harvest-gold straight-vane.

Beth Ann!!!

Where's Beth Ann?? An all-pink kitchen is worth renting a U-haul and driving to Denver. Window in the dryer!!! Woohoo!!!

 

[bajaespuma]

Not usually a Whirlpool fan,

but those machines are fabulous! and a window in the dryer! Love to see some pictures of the inside of the washer.

You know, of course, that that's the original Surgi-cap,

THE BEGINNING OF THE EVER ELUSIVE AND MUCH DESIRED ROTO-FLEX!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wouldn't that be the bomb.

WHO............ HAS............ A ..........ROTOFLEX?

Please reveal yourself as the most sought after Saturday night date in the nation.

Thank You,

Guess Who

That's not a Roto-Flex but a straight-vane. A Roto-Flex does not have a ribbed column like this one.

I want one of these in the worst way. At the Convention (nearly) 2 years ago, there were a couple of Roto-Flexes up for grabs in the agitator garden...but I didn't know at the time they were for giving away. By the time I saw the pile, most all of them were claimed, so I grabbed a Westinghouse 2-piece deep ramp instead.

Wasn't the Roto-Flex offered for the 1965 model year LK only?

Here are the pictures posted on the MySpace page, and since probably not everyone is signed up there I figured I would post them here. First up, the washer timer detail:

Interior. Original Surgilator cap, but a replacement straight-vane agitator. It appears this washer is late enough to have the splined agitator shaft vs. the hex drive.

And don't forget the Sears Homart sink next to the laundry pair!

Dryer timer detail, and look, 2 speeds!

Amazing apps!

I still have a Roto-Flex agitator - they weren't ALL up for grabs ;-)

Fabulous work, Austin--Thank you so much

This so reminds me of a Lady Kenmore, and you figure WP had to have, at some point, the LK equivalent; this must be it, even down to the manual button on the dial=cancel. How exciting. Is there any way to get a close-up of the lid so we can see what the ten buttons signify?

I've only seen one Roto-flex in my life and had no clue it would be as powerful as is revealed in the rinse agitation video from our brother in Brazil.

What a nice Saturday night treat.

You rock, Austin.

 

[swestoyz]

WOAH - Get a load of these! Thanks for pulling the photos from Myspace Austin. What an awesome set - and I might add, what a cool house that they are in! I can only imagine what the kitchen looks like. If you guys don't mind me asking - how often did Whirlpool put a window in the dryer door?

What a set for the first weekend in May!

I believe this is the model that I saw in John Lefever's warehouse, which was an LMA, which would be 1964. That's also not the original knob on the washer's timer.

Austin ... remember what I mentioned to you in an e-mail a few days ago about a dryer with window door .... ?

 

[mickeyd]

Hey Ben

My Aunt Marge had a beautiful mid-sixties Whirlpool dryer in her kitchen with a stunning, large window in the door; it looked like a front loading washer.

She's the wonderful woman who weaned me on her Easy Spin.

 

[westytoploader]

Yes...and I wonder if it's an identical model? ;-)

 

[mickeyd]

Could be

Marge's was white, had the same style panel in blue and far fewer buttons.

HEY BUDDY go find out how to blow up the lid so we can spy on the key for the buttons.

Oops, Sorry Glenn, didn't see you

By the way, your work on the Calypso a month ago was absolutely stunning. Busy, I never got to post. The colors the water the stainless steel the giant wide jets the sheer power of the machine left me gasping. I had never seen one in operation. Egads! what a marvel. Thank You DOODADS.
