Turnamat This is what out Which magazine had to say about it in 1973. They rated it good value for money, I would love to find one someday although they are a rarity in the UK to say the least of it

There was so much to like in that video, and great to see the "Twosome" that we had discussed before with the washer paired with the slightly differently sized spin dryer. In some ways this could be argued as the best of all worlds, the convenience of an automatic (or perhaps in this case semi...

Thanks for digging out that old picture which makes things very clear and the old thread too - one can forget the wealth of information contained in this site :)

It depends of the age and particular characteristics of the machine particularly how they are programmed for out of balance situations. On older machines with mechanical timers generally they would just go straight back into spin although I know, from experience, that some just drain until the...

Milda Margerine "I Love Mondays" Loving the double Electrolux fridge/freezer :)

Thanks for the comments guys, much appreciated :) Robert, it did not actually sudslock as far as I could see but it sure as hell created suds which literally frothed out of every stand pipe on that side of the washer room - that has never happened before. In the end I had to dilute some fabric...

Those are the shipping brackets you see at 1.56 and they are removed before use. It has a suspension but no wiring diagram or tech sheet, that is not unusual in Europe. What I try to make clear in the video is that this is very much a budget machine, well below the purchase price of what might...

At long last am doing some new videos of machines in my collection. I am starting off with a budget model Indesit L8 washer from the late 1970s. At the time it was one of the cheapest washers available in the UK. Discovered, new in box, in summer 2022

Looks like it could be Australian, this style of cooker (range) was advertised in the late 1950s and 1960s. The one in the video looks like 1960s to me and could the brand possibly be New World? This brand name was also used in the UK but only on gas cookers. But then we never did have Parnall...

We had one of those You might like to check out Mike's YouTube channel too, WeHadOneOfThose - its on the link https://www.youtube.com/c/WeHadOneOfThose/videos

Mikey I have been looking for a photo of the then Princess Elizabeth's wedding gifts which included special editions Hoover 160 (upright) and the not even launched Hoover 402 (canister) so she actually could have done a sneaky bit of headlight Hoovering :) You are 100% correct about the Hoover...

Thor This machine was manufactured in the UK as well as the US so the machine you are looking at could well have originated in the UK, produced from around 1946 until around 1960 I understand there were three models of this machine. Its a shame it does not come with the dishwasher attachment...

Hoover Loyal Greetings

More Carpet And Upholstry Shampoo And a lady who know the proper way to use her Electrolux vacuum :)

Westinghouse I have checked back through my old kitchen brochures and this style of Westinghouse oven was around from at least 1970 if not slightly before. Whilst drop down doors have their advantages, and seem pretty universal in built ins these days, side opening doors have their advantages...

Double Oven April 1976 but that style was around for a good while

Definately Westinghouse

As Louis says it is a Kenwood, also sold in US a Delongi

Now, before anyone comments I know this is NOT the pilot of the Burns and Allen Show. The start and end seems different to those I remember, could this be when the show went into syndication? Anyway, the point of this posting is Gracie's kitchen with, I believe, Westinghouse range and...

Husqvarna 2000 Sewing Machine 1963 Looks very advanced for the time. Around 2.30 you can see and AEG from load washer, as established back up this thread Husqvarna "badged" AEG washers under their own brand
