PUSHBUTTON GLORY - 1980'S WHIRLPOOL W&D SET

Gotta love 1980's solid state electronics....I wish these machines had a graphic equalizer (for no particular reason)

Or vacuum tubes for the same lack of reason!

vacuum tubes....

that would be cool...more washers and dryers need to have to warm analog sound....hehehe

A MBM model.  They created cycles just so they could have all the buttons.  But lets face it, a dryer could easily get by with 3 electronic buttons.

I remeber these

as Mark IV Imperial models. But too bad no fluorescent lights.

When I bought my first new w/d set it was a toss up between this set or the Kenmore alternative.  I went for the Kenmore because it had more features and of course had the lighted panels.  They are still running!  I sold them to a friend when the Whirlpool Duets / He3T's came out and bought a pair.

This is a direct-drive machine.  I believe Allen/Whirlcool has the same pair.

Yes, it is direct-drive from around 1989.
