    My new AEG from 1969?

    Amazing square eyes! Wow, this one looks like new. I had no idea they made them with square controls at all. Owning the Regina and the Nova L here, this one is entirely new to me. Does yours have the "double timer" setup as well? Congrats! Joe

    Vive la France! One of the most beautiful DW of all times!

    yes, I was thinking the same the door latch looks "Kitchen Aid-ish" to me, but the brand Kitchen Aid has never been sold here apart from their famous food mixer. All dishwashers were called Hobart and mainly sold as commercial machines. Yet I tend to think the "Lincoln" brand in France was...

    What's on Your Xmas List?

    a healthy brother while I might have a lot of material wishes, one is more than predominant now: I am very glad my brother has recovered from a serious bladder cancer, the only thing I wish for is his nerves getting back to life. He is ok and they have not found any stray cancers whatsoever...

    VIDEO OF A FRENCH WASHER

    ah, sweet memories ;-) Our neighbor had one like this, I loved the glass lid. You were much "closer" to the wash action as you could clearly hear the flopping and sloshing of the clothes in the water. And the smell of the boiling soap suds would fill the laundry room. But the one I remember...

    Theme song for Automatic Washer

    so true! ;-) I absolutely LOVE this song. And even the bedroom is "neat and clean", the beds are one step apart. I guess her hubby has a hard time (no pun intended) to get any closer to her with this hilarious U.F.O. skirt anyway *LOL* I vote "yes" ;-)))

    Has anybody ever heard of a Blomberg brand washer?

    goodness! a mistake! Please forgive me, EBD means "Erwin Bonn, Duisburg", not Erwin Brocke Duisburg. While "Bonn" is the name of a town and a family name as well, "Brocke" is some other family name and NOT a name of a town. I just got muddled up in all these traditional names. Clearly...

    Has anybody ever heard of a Blomberg brand washer?

    oh and Blomberg is the name of some (cute) town as well although the "Blomberg washer works" were located in Aalen, Westfalia (not far from there). See this: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blomberg

    Has anybody ever heard of a Blomberg brand washer?

    a tradition brand Blomberg is here. It is a German traditional brand. Back then in the 50s and 60s a lot of washer factories were in the "Ruhrpott" area, the largest mining area or Germany. Coal and iron (thus steel) were readily available and more than a dozen of companies thrived on that...

    Keyboard Cleaning

    Now that's cool! Bill and Allen, thank you both very much. Prying keys off is no longer a problem for me, I've been doing this some hundred times already. (I know about the space bar problems, had them in the beginning, don't ask for sunshine). But today my palms can sense this little...

    Keyboard Cleaning

    wait a minute you guys really put the keyboard into the dishwasher? Just as it is, no disassembly? What if some water stays between the contacts? How does it dry? There is this silicone liner (with its counterpart contact spots). What about the electronic PCBs? This really puzzles me, but it is...

    Argh! Whirlpool Q3 Profits Up 124%; Will Lay Off 5,000

    Possible and yet impossible This article throws some light on what is happening here as well: In fact is can be possible for a dishwasher to save gallons and gallons of water: There have some models been released here that can do with some modest 7-8 litres per wash cycle (compared to 15...

    Keyboard Cleaning

    depends on what is expected 1. dust-off: using a vacuum regularly, duster tool. gets rid of all the dust and the fluff 2. anti-sticky keys: wipe off with window cleaner, if wanted then even between the keys. 3. malfunctioning keyboards (when letters are missing when pressing down a key)...

    Compact Miele Washing 1950's Style

    absolutely right. Thanks, this is entirely correct. Those were the full sized household models (costing a well-deserved fortune back then). For anyone who doesn't believe, Miele features even their own collector's website/forum: (see link). Cheers, Joe. PS: Wanting to scroll through history...

    Bosch V635 washer...

    Amen to that Absolutely right what Mat said. Besides: Vorwerk was selling custom tailored incorporated kitchens at that time (called "Vorwerk Contempora" - while in Italy the Contempora name was handled to describe special edition electric applicances). These kitchens all had Bosch appliances...

    1969 TOL Miele Frontloader on ebay

    you should hurry Stefan, the machine is closer to you than you think! cfz (for lack of a better first name) - pretty true, I think the backsplash does it and all the chrome trims. At least this thing is a beast, I have never seen such a sturdy and heavy machine again in my life (and in no...
