Hmmm...any idea when that change occurred? I've had nothing but GE
since the 60s and that's the first time I've seen one that the top
didn't lift up w/ the snappy clips and then the front came off w/ screws
from the inside....dryers as well.

I believe they've changed the drum, suspension and cabinet design roughly
around the same time in mid-90s. Was Profile 2000 the first to get the new
cabinet? I'm not too sure, but it's been like that for more than a decade
for certain. It's not a bad cabinet design - you can do quite a few things
in there by taking just the front off.
