Finally... a picture of the new and improved utility room complete with a cat! Waffles was sitting by the window watching the rain until I wanted to take a photo... naturally he made a run for it. Caught him though!! David

Heres a picture of the screen. One of my favorite features of the machine! David

Thank you! Yeah, times are tight up north as well. I had been saving up for years for a washing machine though, finally talked my other half into getting it hehe. Heres a couple of pictures, nothing exciting but there the first two anyways! Heres the machine in my kitchen having just unwrapped it.

Its Here!! Its washing some bedding just now. I can't believe how quiet the machine is! I'll get some photos and stuff up of it later. Going to get some lunch now :-) David

Thanks for the advice! I'll try and get something sorted because i know its a simple thing to do. Just need to get out and get the parts. Just found out today that the machine is en route from Germany and should be here a week on Wednesday. I'm off the friday but i'm going to try to get the...

Thanks, i'll bear that in mind! I never would have thought to check the drainage. I was just going to leap straight into cotton 60 wash haha. Just now the washing machine drains in to the sink. Its your average 80s double sink with a tiny basin and a larger one. I'm guessing the machine will...

Thanks guys! Well, according to the people were getting it from they'll pop it in place but not connect anything. So hopefully i can just tilt it up for leveling. The water pipe is off to the side of it and there is no units beside it so it should be okay! If needs be i can wait till the other...

After much deliberation we have ordered this machine. Seems to be popular since three members already have it haha! I chose this machine because i wanted a more traditional looking machine with the good ol chrome door. Also liked the range of programmes. I should use most of them! Waiting for...

Beautiful cats!!

These are my two cats - Pie and Waffles. Waffles is at the front and Pie at the back. They are the friendliest cats I have ever met! Got them from the cats home in Kirkintilloch near Glasgow. We've had Pie a year now so were going to give the home a birthday donation to say thanks for giving us...

That picture of the 1015 is a keeper. My aunties lost the door when they moved house and it was freestanding. Looked pretty daft really haha! Thank you! I've got a picture somewhere of me in front of the Wdi9091 in a fetching jumper but i can't find it! Need to hunt out negatives! You guys are...

No problem! Yeah, i had a white 9934. Was a good machine except for the vent ripping clothes etc :-( Heres what my machine done: the machine would drain and distribute and rev up to 400rpm and stop. It would tumble twice then distribute and spin at 600rpm for a 30 secs. On the final spin it...

Amazing! Two of my aunties had the other versions of the machine. One had the 1015 which was the build under model with the double door thingie and the other had a WDi9091. Both machines innards were the same. Always loved the whoosh when it went up to 1000rpm because the machine would get...

Beautiful machine! Were going to get that one too one day! Once we get rid of some debt hopefully! Can't wait to hear all about it! David

Such a beautiful machine! Listening to the machine going into the short spin sounded exactly like my old washer drier. I just have a question though. Does the machine tumble in between spins? My old washer drier would spin loosen a few times during every spin cycle. I would love to know if...

Rob Bendix seals are not too rare i believe. I think that model is the 7168 and from a quick search i found some door seals. My friend had the machine and matching dryer for years and years. I was in awe of it! so I recommend you get the Bendix haha

great thread! We had a 9934 which we bought at the same time as one of the BSH made dishwashers. It was a shoddy machine. It was one of the machines that had the design flaw that ripped clothes. The cold water valve stopped working after a few years, My mums friend had an 800 spin version...

Thanks for the photo mike! I guess they were not that successful because Hitachi stopped making them. Or maybe it was because of the Merloni take over? My Neighbours had a Quartz (with a stuck in Economy button) and replaced it with a Merloni Servis (I think! It was about 1991). It was an...

Thanks guys! Now all i need to do is try to find one on ebay... in Scotland haha David

When i was younger i used to have a brochure for Hitachi products from the late 80s/ early 90s. They had some pretty smart looking front loading washing machines. Very solid looking and were all fully electronic. I just want to see if anyone has any information about them. I always thought they...
