When you say they were separate units, did they "belong" to one another? Or did you simply stack a dryer on top of the washer?

My Kenmore stackables were pretty much separate units---
in other words, they were each free to breakdown and'
leave the other alone...except if a breaker blew.
One of the most interesting was a crazy cam wheel that
controlled the squirrel fan...never figured out the design..
just had to by 3 or 4 because it kept breaking every
year (on the dot on Feb 4th for 3 years in a row!)...
I loved the units before I sold them as I started becoming
a housing slumlord...(LOL j.k_)

Later I was finally able to afford a set. The only place I looked was at a Sears Outlet store. There are two types there. A washer/dryer that is a smaller single unit and units that are two separate machines that are designed to stack the dryer on top of the washer.
