The fact that this one even had metal side curtains means that Whirlpool made good quality Air Conditioners, alongside with their Direct Drive washer from that era before they discontinued it.
I have 3 running Whirlpool units that have metal side panels, 2 from the 80s and this one, and my parents have a 2007 direct drive washer with the stainless steel tub, they've really gone downhill, and one thing you may not notice is the vent design, plenty of air conditioners both vintage and modern have vents that blow straight out, these older whirlpool units have vents that are angled upwards which reduces the amount of cold air that is recirculated
