ABSTRACT:
An appliance is provided with a control housing secured to the cabinet top cover. The control housing includes a front opening which is closed by a control panel assembly engageable with the lower portion of the housing front and rearwardly pivotable for engagement with the top of the housing front. The control panel assembly includes a support panel and an overlying decorative panel which is biased toward the frontal surface of the support panel. This biasing maintains the rear of the face portion of the fascia panel in contact with the support panel. The control panel assembly ends are enclosed by a pair of rearwardly extending end caps which combine with the upper edge of the fascia panel to provide a continuous unbroken line at the top of the panel assembly and form a frame having a mitered corner appearance.
