My partner and I had that exact same set from about 1983 to 1986. The washer was awsome, but very noisy. The dryer was one of the lint-o-matic specials that blew hot air into the drum rather than sucking it out. However, the speed of getting a week's worth of laundry done with this pair was nothing less than astounding. (Bring the lint roller, though, you'll need it)
