I miss the time when Tik Tok was just that annoying auto-tune song

Welcome to Automaticwasher ! Very cool collection, I like that Neff machine, is it Nixie tubes ? For French vintage machines you can see my website http://statomatic.e-monsite.com/ and my blog https://machinealavervintage.blogspot.com/ You can also see the videos of my friend Lav Wash...

Seen these vids yesterday, a good restoration but I would have completely took the tub out to get a better access to fix the leaks, clean the motor and eventually change the bearings. Anyway he did a great job on painting the outside of the frame, but only the outside so the rust will continue...

Nice meet up. These French Philips have an unusual design, the heater is wired in serie with the motor and electronic unit. So the machine can't heat when the basket spins, that's why it has long pause during heating. The drawback is the heating switch that turns on and off several times by the...

Well done job ! I like the electronic washer analyzer.

Didn't knew there were maintenance contract for domestic machines. That's something I've always thought doing, especially with the new hype of washing with cold water, the machines gets mucky easily and goes bad early.

Millenial anti-theft device Never wanted an automatic transmission, mostly because most of the French mechanics don't know how to maintain them. My good old 87' Peugeot 309 has a five gear manual transmission, I drove something like 30km and found out the 3rd gear sounded funny, checked the...

Brandt Statomatic 418, the machine from my childhood http://statomatic.e-monsite.com/blog/articles/brandt-statomatic-418.html And that really cool German commercial washer Seibt&Kapp Gudrun :

H-axis toploaders What a very nice timeline and some interesting infos about Hoover machines. About the Topline in reply #87, it's not made by Brandt but by Thomson, that's the same industry group but totally different construction. Brandt machines have on door (usually with glass) and a...

Very nice brochures, thanks for sharing.

Your coworker is too much normal and normal peoples are boring as hell. Be yourself and enjoy your 'unusual' hobby.

That's the nicest feature I've ever seen on a refrigerator !

Well that shouldn't happen with an old range that has hard to turn rotary switches, that also prevent children using them.

Hi, here's an avocado and a poppy red machine I've saved from the trash. Added the white one to make the Italian flag ^^

I do have a W765, but I'm on the other side of the ocean.

Great machines, I like the look of the Husqvarna. The 80's was the finest of French appliances engineering, sadly quality started turning down in the 2000's and nowadays real French appliances have almost disappeared. Here's photos of the Artur-Martin 787.10 and the Lincoln LFL565. Some models...

Well done, glad you sorted it out.

Knobs can be removed by pulling a string wrapped around the timer shaft, I do that sometimes when restoring vintage hifi.

Hi, these timers are from the 88714xxx series, check if the last three digits are the same. Of course if the new timer is for a dishwasher it wouldn't work in your machine. Motors can be swapped by removing the metal clips, before replacing check if the part numbers matches (start by 82432xxx)...

Very nice machine, here is the French version ^^
