It a 1965 Kenmore 800 model. It is interesting though how this has the small hamper door, yet the Kenmore dryer in Reply # 33 which is also a 1965 model, but a 70 series, has the full width door. Feature wise this is a little breach in the hierarchy of Kenmore models, as the 800 was more top of the line. For the 1960s this was extremely rare.

Great thread amongst a series of great threads posting all of these washer ads. It is always reassuring to see vintage washers and dryers are still out there.

Have a good one,

Kenmore 800 dryer

James, and everyone else, the reason why I know this is an 800 because I had a coworker whose husband and her got transferred to Dallas from Houston in 1986.  I visited them in late 1980s and early 1990s.  First time I walked into their laundry room (to entery the hosue) I about keeled over.  Theyh had the matching set since 1965 and the dryer had this same plug-door door, not the full-width door.  I did a college paper on Sears Marketing of appliances and got an A+.  This was the entry-level 800 dryer.
