It's funny how american appliances always have the controls on the top and back, while in Europe they're on the front. I wonder what the rest of the world have. I think it's pretty much only an american thing, but I have only ever been in Europe and Asia, so don't know really.

In Europe we'd often have the dryer on top of the washer to save floor space. That will require front panel controls.

Great looking set, though. May it last a generation more.
