I just bought another hoover twin tub 0515 from my friends brother. It is in fair shape at best,but everything seems to work. I havent tryed water in it yet. I have been using my 0510 hoover (this is my favorite one) One of our members rebuilt the pump for me and now it is my specialty washer...
I have a page from an old magazine that talks about all the different types of washers available in the 50s. There is a pic of an automatic washer that looks like a westy,but it has a solid door on the front without the trademark sight glass. Can anyone tell me what it might be? thanks Bill
Can any of you folks educate me on why the 50s Westinghouse washers are so hard to find in working condition? I have only collected wringer machines until recently. I am interested in getting one in the future. Thanks Bill

I just acquired my second hoover twin tub machine a week ago! It is the 0510 model and the one I wanted with the metal wash tub! Best of all it was free. My wifes aunt had it in her barn for years. Of course the pump was bad. I am having a friend work on it now. Are there any hoover collectors...

Dear Aw members,I am new to the forum and really enjoy all your threads and pics of your collections. I am very old school and a bit clumsy on the computer. I posted several threads about twin tub questions. I didn't realize I could have put them all together in one thread. My sincerest of...
I live in upstate N.Y. In a little town named Walton. I am looking to buy a vintage hoover twin tub from the late 50s or early 60s. If anyone has one please contact me. @[email protected] Thanks
if anyone can tell me the relationship between hoovermatics and twin tubs? I thought at first the hoovermatic was the name of the twin tubs in the beginning of their creation. But I have seen machines from the 80s that are hoovermatics also. I have a 0515 hoover twin from 1969. It just says...
Is there anyone in the catskills or around n.y. state into hoovermatics and hoover twin tubs? I have a nice hoover twin tub machine,I would like to get one of the early models from the 50s or early 60s. I have a maytag master wringer washer I would trade for an old hoover twin tub or hoover...
keymatic question
were these keymatics a full sized washer? or a smaller machine? I really love the old hoover machines and I just wondered. I have seen these in ads and it is neat too see them on this site. thanks Bill
