Hi David Well now, that name certainly brings the memories flooding back!! (no pun intended). I remember staying at a very small chalet park in County Wexford in the south of Ireland sometime around 1980. The owners had just built a new laundry block there with 2 Washmeister Washer/Dryers. I...

Thanks for the advice! One concern I would have is the amount of horsehair that would come off the blankets during the wash. Surely that would play havoc with the filter and pump systems? Incidently, I have a Miele honeycomb washer at home, and sadly Im always left with a hair-filled drum...

Gansky, great picture! Unfortunately, I doubt she would have neither the patience nor the time to appreciate a beauty like that. She's more of a 'get it in and get it goin' now' kinda girl'...think thats why my brother married her !! ;-)

Does anybody out there have any recommendations for a washer capable of cleaning horse blankets?? I have a sister in law in Vancouver that runs a small riding school and she has had it with the local service supplier charging her mucho dollars for cleaning all the horsey stuff. She wants to...

..from the heart stuff... Decided to take a quick peak at the site before the monday morning blues of work set in, and I'm still sitting here 'gobsmacked' by what i'm reading. As a newish member of the site, I'm still getting used to the familiar names and obvious friendships that exist here...

Thank you all for taking the time to reply with such knowledgeable and profound observations! You have certainly given me lots to ponder over! Have a great christmas wherever you are, and every best wish for the new year too. Mark.

Hi Everybody! My name is Mark Sweeney and I'm pretty much the new kid on the block since the unexpected discovery that I'm not the only one to appreciate the wonderful world of washers, and all things laundry too! I never realised there was such a wealth of history on the subject out there...
