I just would stand there and cry with happiness if I got a set of Maytags like these. After I stopped crying I would jump up and down like a game show contestant! 
This is my dream set...

Keep your eye out. They turn up from time to time. Don't be too afraid to get them separately. There was a dryer up on this very forum within the last few months.

The washer's a TA700 and I think the dryer is likely a TDE701. I have a similar set in yellow (which I prefer), but my dryer is gas. The one in the video may be as well, but I never could get even a glimpse of a service door down on the lower right, so I doubt it. I believe both of these machines would date to the early 1960's, but if I'm wrong I'm sure someone here will correct me.
I'M WITH YOU ON THAT STEPANIE....
My Dream set is a late 50's, early 60's set of
these maytags in Turquoise, but I'd take pale
yellow, as a second.
I do have a matched pair that were bought together.
Sept. 1961 A700S Washer & a DE700 Dryer. They are
white, but I figured better to have a pair that
came togther, than none at all. So I'll live
with the white......but I can still dream / LOL.

That style was made from 1958 to 1965
Though for parts purposes, I prefer the 1961 to 1965 700/702 series. Mine were from separate states. Ted had my A702 in Maryland. I took it to my friend Dave's for a transmission seal (still in progress) and found the matching de702 dryer in Ohio. [this post was last edited: 5/20/2014-20:45]

Actually
turquoise is my second favorite color. My absolute favorite color is pink. I would love to have that maytag set, as well as my kitchen appliances, in pink. But that being said, I would be thrilled with any of the pastels. My thankfulness for them would overpower color preference and I would love them no matter what.

You mean something like the pair on the left?

Turquoise Time
Kevin, yeah, it leaves a nice little puddle of grease on the floor and the timer could stand some work. When I bought it, the previous owner was trying to use it as a daily driver and had no clue about anything mechanical. I've got the matching dryer which should be an easy fix up. Just need to find the time! -Cory

Kevin,
That Yellow Pair is Awesome. I wish my 700's
were Turquoise or Yellow. But, as Stephanie
alluded to, having them, no matter what color,
is still a great feeling.
EVEN though mine are White, I am very glad
I got them
Thanks for sharing Your Pics.....You Too Cory.
Awesome machine, as well.

They're still out there. There was a Turquoise set by me last winter. Wanted wwaaaayyy too much money for them. I made a fair offer, was turned down. I think Travis in St Louis has a turquoise set

Not to pile on or anything...
I guess I shouldn't mention the Set I have waiting to be restored and loved. Just haven't had the time with all the events life throws at me. Wow, Steph, we just gotta get you a pair!

Oh Drew,
That was just so mean!! Go ahead, rub salt in that wound! Sniff, sniff... Louis, why don't you paint your set? I am a person that usually likes to keep things stock, but if you really want a different color I say go for it.

It's hard to pick just one!
There's just something about sunny yellow!
