Son of a gun protectant Hi James Yes, I've always been a little disappointed that it doesn't have the badge on the door as I would have liked that. I too need to get stuck in and start to restore mine. Thanks for liking my cupboard, in fact the whole room was given over to laundry once upon a...

Another one saved Many congratulations, I have one of these too, although yours looks to be in better condition. The sump area on mine has completely disintegrated and the whole machine needs to be overhauled (the motor smells of burning too when it goes into spin). The door boot on mine has...

Thanks for the advice gentlemen And the link Steve. Yes, I was quite pleased on how it looks with the tiles. It's not destined for this room yet, will have to give it a bit of time with the other half, that did the trick last time with the Dyson ;-) Cheers Alan

Thanks Mike for the good wishes! Actually the plinth is grey, someone in the long past has tried to cover up the rust I guess with white paint, but it's grey at the sides. My turquoise boot looks exactly the same condition (perished) as the one in your photo, my black one is a lot better, but...

Sorry.. ..now I've put my glasses on this morning I can see that the pulley is already off.

Thank you Ian I have one of these Keymatic (just waiting for a moment for me to restore it) and read with such interest this brochure that you have, lots of lovely manufacturing photos and info, such a delight and it made me late this morning for work when I initially saw it! Oh to be able to...

Hi everyone, here's another brochure that may be of interest. I've actually had one of these machines in my repair days probably over twenty years ago now. At the time I really wanted to keep it, but both the tub and drum were very rusty when I acquired it. Inside it works on the wig wag...

Hi everyone, this brochure is actually 12 pages long, but I've omitted the fridge/freezers/television/radio pages that Indesit made at the time. In my repair days I had many of the dishwasher come through hands, never found they cleaned very well, were noisy and I missed the wheels on the racks...
