I gave this exact model! It's a fun little machine! I replaced the Kenmore agitator with a Whirlpool Surgilator though. It has great action! It's a bit different from the full-sized BD washers, but it's still a great little workhorse!

Jon, I had an avocado set like this in 1978. I realy liked it.

mmm...avocado

appnut,

I've emailed the person selling these. If it is still available I plan on picking it up today. I'm not all the interested in the dryer, but I think I can make space for the washer in my place. Would be fun to have it for mini loads and would be a nice change from my world of front-loaders.

No, you shouldn't.

Hi Jon. The wait can be frustrating but I started with only the '47 Bendix. It will happen. If not this machine, then there will be others.

yup...will have to wait for the next one. Just got the word that this one sold already. oh well.

Hi Jonathan. Keep trying. Before you know it, something will come along. You will await it's arrival with great anticipation and all of a sudden, it will be there.
You may want to check ebay or some of the larger local thrift shops.

Thanks Ross,

I check pretty often on craiglist and ebay. I know another one will appear soon. They are sort of common around my area with all the older hi-rises and such. I just really thought I had that one in the bag. Thanks for the encouragement!
