That's the nicest feature I've ever seen on a refrigerator !

Well that shouldn't happen with an old range that has hard to turn rotary switches, that also prevent children using them.

Hi, here's an avocado and a poppy red machine I've saved from the trash. Added the white one to make the Italian flag ^^

I do have a W765, but I'm on the other side of the ocean.

Great machines, I like the look of the Husqvarna. The 80's was the finest of French appliances engineering, sadly quality started turning down in the 2000's and nowadays real French appliances have almost disappeared. Here's photos of the Artur-Martin 787.10 and the Lincoln LFL565. Some models...

Well done, glad you sorted it out.

Knobs can be removed by pulling a string wrapped around the timer shaft, I do that sometimes when restoring vintage hifi.

Hi, these timers are from the 88714xxx series, check if the last three digits are the same. Of course if the new timer is for a dishwasher it wouldn't work in your machine. Motors can be swapped by removing the metal clips, before replacing check if the part numbers matches (start by 82432xxx)...

Very nice machine, here is the French version ^^

A lot of receivers and other hifi are high priced on epay but the real vintage hifi lovers don't pay that much, they prefer buying defective and fix it themselves. Most of the fully restored vintage hifi from epay are just recapped with cheap capacitors, switches & pots barely cleaned with some...

Modernize what? these machines looks already great. Keep the original look or replace them by an ugly new set...

Thanks for your messages. @mike, these Philips Slimstar are great machines, very stable during spin due to the progressive speed increase. The Hoover (A76 maybe ?) on the left is made by Thomson Esswein, the bearings are almost unbreakable on these. @warmsecondrinse, that's what I like with...

That's a very nice machine Gizmo, I didn't knew these were sold in Australia. In France the Brandt from the "TX" series have the "BB40" chassis, between the "Statomatic" and the "Malice" (like yours). And the panel on yours is the same kind used in the Thomson Access machines, the Brandt from...

Thanks, slim toploading machines are typically French, like cheese & wine :D Also these are smaller than a frontload for the same capacity (real one, not the ridiculous race today's manufacturer's does), that made them popular especially in tiny flats. Brandt has only made two frontloader in...

Thanks, yes that's an horizontal axis drum.

Hi fellow washing machines enthusiasts and happy new year. Just sharing my modest website dedicated to French vintage washing machines http://statomatic.e-monsite.com/ especially Brandt and Vedette but I might add other brands in the future. During this new year I will upload more pictures &...

The joy of Win10 updates, that's why I keep using Seven & XP ^^

Here's my 99 Golf (not R32, it's a 1.6 ^^) Also restoring a 1987 Peugeot 309 which has almost half mileage than the VW.

This sound familar I'm HVAC tech for maintenance & commissioning, I see that almost everyday. Commissioned a split high wall ac unit and got called back by the contractor after three months, asking to replace the control board of the unit and check the refrigerant charge as it didn't reach the...

Hi, I'm taking a trip to USA with my company (HVAC-R maintenance & commissioning) to visit the https://ahrexpo.com/ in Orlando. Is there any members going here ? Will be fun to meet up and talk about washing machines, air conditioners or anything else. We also go to New York City from February...
