I'm glad more of these are being saved and rebuilt/cleaned up by you boys. They really are such a unique one of a kind machine. Best of luck :-) Matt

Hi guys, It certainly is a wonderful machine :-) Louis, yes mine does have a pump, a good strong one too :-) The 'mini' twinnie I had for a time only had gravity drain and I must say I much prefer the pump. I do however wish this had a 'gentle' action of sorts but thats easily remedied by...

Hi All, So sometimes telling your friends about your passion for all things laundry can bear fruit. A couple of weeks ago my friend Cheryl turned up at my house with a washer in the back of the car for me. She had bought it for her mother from a scratch and dent place because her mother had...

Hi Guys, Curiosity got the better of me and I caved in and ordered some Power Pearls Intense Fresh and the Original Liquid to be shipped to Australia (so much more expensive than it has been previously for some reason). I love them both so far but did have to remove the silly pour spout from...

Wow I didn't know there was such a thing as a spin dryer with a heater ! Thermaspin. Would that not set in creases ?

That Westinghouse machine is an Aussie machine. Very much what would have been put on the Neighbours set in the laundry. Great machines, i think that one is the bigger 7kg size one. I quite like the look of the half panel controls.

Searching through the Museum of Victoria's archives yields some good results too, lots of advertising material on Lightburns and even Naco's. See link below... http://museumvictoria.com.au/collections/search?q=washing+machine

I thought I could see a similarity Steve :-)

I didn't know there were machines here labelled as Hotpoint? It does say Hotpoint Galamatic. I love the look of this twin tub, quite different from other Hotpoints i'm more familiar with...

Oh WOW! This is an awesome website :-) I can tell im going to spend quite a lot of time searching for as much as I can laundry related :-) Already found a few gems . THose Philips machines look great. I'm curious about the twin tub, I remember seeing one on the side of the road a few years...

My current laundry room has had a few different machines in it in its time. Ive got pics of all of them below. Pic 1 is the day after we moved in with my Electrolux set taking pride of place. Pic 2 is when I went for the stacked look with my new Beko machine. Pic 3 is during the 'top loader'...

Both my mum and my mother in law have an LG front load, my mums is the higher model than the MIL's and they both love them. MIL is used to top loaders but said this one does it much better, only problem is it doesn't flush out the dog fur very well. I like LG front loaders and would consider...

I think I've seen that video Jon, I'll try find it again. I would love to try one :-) if one of these hitachi with agitator twin tubs pop up in my local area I'll be grabbing it in a heartbeat

Finally found an Ebay ad for that Hitachi twin tub with agitator we had for a few years in our scout hall. That agitator with three selectable wash actions would have been a great machine to have :-)...

I would have one too if i could :-) didn't notice the little scrubber brush before but its a neat little addition as long as its not too abrasive.

Heres a link to the Whirlpool India site with one of their range of twin tubs with full size agitators. Pretty neat looking and so many to choose from! http://www.whirlpoolindia.com/washing-machine/semi-automatic/ace_8_2-royale-8_2kg

I remember a National Twin Tub that had Electronic controls, i found a pic of it through the Searchalator. Also Whirlpool twin tubs in India (i think) feature full size agitators which is pretty cool. I remember an old school Hitachi twinnie that sat in the corner of our scout hall broken for...

I looove this new set you have Darren, so very sexy lol Since we are moving house soon I want to buy a brand new machine when we do but I will keep the Simpson. I love it but have a hankering for something brand new lol I like all things Electrolux *pic below* so might get one of their new...

Hi Wishy Washy, I found it easy to source new belts for my hoovermatic twin tub from Ebay :-) I have the non deluxe model and was able to source a new wash belt, spin and pump belts. I replaced the wash belt but have the others in stock for when I need them. I also got a spin mat which I...
