Hi Darren, My main washers are my Whirlpool Top Loader 3LSC8255EQ1 and my Dyson CR01 Memory, though I tend to use the Top Loader most as I just love the agitator wash action. I thought you might be filling your Logic through the dispenser drawer. I would suggest that you go a garden center and...

Hi Robert, Wow just love those mugs, are they a Pyrex type material? The Kirby Handi Butler looks like a knife sharpener. Now that would be a sight worth seeing, a Kirby on the kitchen counter just to sharpen a knife. I’ll bet it works great though. Love the 7Up and Pepsi I wonder if it’s still...

Hi Darren, I have 14 fully functional washers and probably as many for spares, I need to get into the garage to list them all properly as the old memory lets me down with regard to the model numbers. I have a total of six plumbing connections so I have to swap my washers round from time to time...

Hi Peter, Yea I remember that 4 paddle design carrying the Philips-Whirlpool brand in 1989 and in 1990 the name Philips was dropped and they carried the Whirlpool brand alone. Thankfully Whirlpool did not continue selling that design for long, no doubt due to its poor reliability. I believe it...

Just Beautiful Hi Robert, What a beautiful set. I wish you good health to enjoy your wonderful collection. All the best. Hugh

Hi Darren, I totally agree the 4 paddle design is particularly poor with small loads I have seen that effect where the paddles just slip below the load with no tumbling, totally useless. Yea I have a delicious Servis Quartz 1000 model 602 it's the one with the modified SpinCare™ drum the riveted...

Just Beautiful Hi Ben and Cory, I just love those lighted consoles they look just beautiful. I wish I lived in the USA then I could collect real machines. Enjoy. All the best. Hugh

Servis Quartz 1000 Hi Darren, Yes it is the same drum as the 4 paddle Servis washers, and I agree I don't like them one bit either. Yea the Philco Bendix washers were definitely great machines, I am so pleased to have a number of them in my collection. You might also be interested to hear I...

Looking Good Hi Donnie, You look great before and after. You and Christopher make a lovely couple. All the best. Hugh

Happy Birthday I hope you have a wonderful day. All the best. Hugh

Thorn EMI Philco Bendix Hi Chris, Yea I just love the Philco Bendix washers, I have quite a few in my collection. the oldest is a late 70s Autowasher De Luxe 7147PB 800 RPM Spin, next is an Autowasher De Luxe Electronic 7133 800 RPM spin, then an Autowasher Electronic 1000 De Luxe 7168 and...

Hi Darren, My 4 paddle Bendix is not a Philco made machine it's a Merloni Electrodomestica made machine and total rubbish compared to the Philco made Bendix washers. I will certainly post a picture of it the as soon as I can get near it, my Mum has the Garage filled with furniture she is storing...

Congratulations Austin, What a truly wonderful gift. All the best and Happy Birthday. Hugh

Philco Bendix Hi Chris, You are correct Philco was never to my knowledge owned by either of the two Merloni companies. I use the term Philco Bendix as my 4 paddle Bendix was made prior to the Bendix brand being acquired by Electrolux group, at that time the Bendix brand in the UK was owned by...

Apology to Glenn Hi Glenn, I am very sorry I called you Greg, the old memory lets me down sometimes and my pain meds don't help either. All the best. Hugh

Hi Greg, I would not trust the accuracy of those test kits, I recommend you buy an Aquarium water hardness test kit for fresh water and you will get a truly accurate reading from that. All the best. Hugh

Whole House Fan Hi Jim, Thanks for the picture I wondered what they looked like. Unfortunately we don't have them in the UK but I have a good friend from Sacremento who has one. I think they are a truly superb idea, they must keep the house so fresh and cool. All the best. Hugh

Hi Steve, That is so funny, the expression on Michael Jacksons face is just priceless. All the best. Hugh

Hi Louis, The one I bought in 1987 was a Thor 820; the Thor brand at that time was owned by Merloni Electrodomestica as was Ariston and Indesit. I also have a Philco Bendix Autowasher 800 which uses the same cabinet, tub, drum and motor, the Bendix model however has a 2300 Watt heater as opposed...
