HI Mikey, Interesting you pick up on that point about the Intermittent "Stir" during the heating stage on the Servis 311 - I think Servis liked this as it was introduced from their very first top loader MK22. Cheers Keith

Afternoon Mike, Thanks for compiling the all the "Great's" in action just what I needed to lift my WFH day amongst the mayhem and uncertainty. With regards to Servis and Philips doing the "Lessiveuse Style" action there is no mention of this action in the instruction manuals and its potential...

Evening, I know this is a real long shot but thought I would give it a go, I am looking for any later Thor Automagic spares, gaskets/seals/bearing's - I really want to do a complete strip down on one machine that I am potentially thinking of scraping, but if the strip down & re-fit goes well it...

Hi Ed, Sorry to hear of your problems with the Lavalux - sometimes some machines just need to go to the washer heaven. If and when you do break it down i am look for a valve lever, only the rod..this literally unscrews. I will pay all costs etc. Regards Keith

Looking good guys !! Steve: That Supertwin looks great 👌 i wonder why Servis never offered it as an alternative to the traditional agitator model ? bit of a tangler though !! Great job on the the tub - to - outlet hose, that small connecting hose is a complete nightmare, i would have thought...

Hey Michael, Good to read your post and hear your experiences of washers as you grew up, like you i too have fond memories of a Thor Automagic washer, not my parents but a lady who use to run a holiday let in Cornwall that we use to stay with for 2 weeks a year, i use to help / watch as she did...
