Think outside of the box I've had my fair share of brining back to life a sad and sorry washing machine such as your hoover. Improvise and you may just have her up and running sooner than you think with only half the effort but still as good as any. Seals, pipes and belts are all available at...

LOL Now if only it were slightly bigger....

Good thinking... Let's give Defy a call and see if they are willing to help! Did not even know there was an older model than this, you have a pic perhaps?} green buttons? sounds cool.

It sure is in a good, clean condition! Why is the control switch so far down? 

Defy Docker, induction motors electronically controlled - you mean for top loaders?   Mathew, there seems to be a problem with my defy laundromaid in that with every small - medium load it bangs loudly on spin then stops with unbalnced code flashing. have since noticed, as it starts to spin...

Anybody care to comment? Perhaps some info on the bosch? Would be nice to know why they made this particular model without the usual (brush type) motor. Instead uses start cap and reg. motor. What are the correct names to these motors I'm referring to?

last but not least My trusty Defy Autodry which serves me very well whilst leaving the Bosch in storage as backup when needed.

Defy Laundromaid One should know better than to Defy a Laundromaid in LG clothing !   OR is it the other way around? Hmmm 

and Bosch This model is very basic with low spin speed. Can still hand wring water from towels after they come out albeit it washes very well and I do like the cycles. (Spin speeds are not that much considered with our warm climate) Door says 4.5kg but seems to hold more than average.

First up My trusty Daewoo 7.2 kg   Pushed this one to the limit and yet surprisingly has provided us with 2 years of excellent service and is still going strong. That's Daewoo for you! [this post was last edited: 1/20/2011-19:51]

  Here are some pics of modern machines which are permanently plumbed in our laundry/garage.    Must admit these machines have surpassed all my expectations and proven me so very wrong in that I considered them nothing but junk from when they first arrived. Predicted they would only last a...

Useful Once was given a very early Hoovermatic (with blue control panel and heater) and even then found the heater very useful in maintaining a constant temp whilst reusing the wash water. The Easy (tear drop shape) was a few years back. If I remeber correctly, it looked the same, but without...

thanks chestermikeuk Can't help wondering why they made these with plastic tubs and not stainless steel like the UK They really look so good, one would think they were suppose to be like that and hardly look mismatched in colour. BTW, why do you prefer using this washer to the other?

well now there's hope after all... Just say when... any chance of snow? I'd only come if you invited me as your guest, which you haven't, but like I said, there's hope!

all the twin tubs I've ever owned Will try to remember them all... Giant 6 KG Supreme 7 KG Daewoo 7 KG National (touch control, awesome machine) National X5 (same as above, but with control knobs) Hitachi X10 ( various models small and big, old and new) Philips X5 KIC Hoovermatics X8...

Heya Foraloysius, LOL I'm planning my Holiday so get the guest towels out nice and fluffy okay ; ) Have you eaten Biltong and Droewors before?

Hoovermatic/Hoover Twin tub What are the differences between the two?

My dreams... do not belong in neither the deluxe nor the imperial forum :0

Awesome combo Hoovermatic washer and dryer... what more does one need!

Thanks for the detailed info, Tim, I have always believed that was only for overflow rinsing, but now I understand why some twin tubs have a pressure switch.
