the video Here is a link the video which should appear in the old thread which has to be watched in YouTube, narration by Richard

Love that Electrolux Film So much to see there, early fridge freezers and upright freezers. Who knew that there would be a tie up between Electrolux and Miele? Are those washers that appear before the Miele manufactured by Electrolux? They look like they may be semi automatic. The little round...

By the wasy, I hope you have fun with your new washer, it’s always fun to see something a bit different

Monitor washers were based on a UK Hoover Design I tremble to contradict you Laundress but I believe the situation is exactly the contrary, that Uk Hoover washers are based on a Monitor design. The story is a bit blurred but I have heard that when Charles Colston attended a Hoover conference...

TrioMatic This Triomatic seems to have been pretty much the last gasp for this style of Bendix washer, variations of which - both automatic and semi automatic - had been produced here from around 1946. Introduced in 1961, by 1964 it was superseded by the Bendix LT (with tumble dryer) and LA (no...

Hoover Shampoo Polisher They were a step well beyond the mechanical driven shampoo "machines" such as that in the video, as I I recall there were only sponges in those whereas you had the rather effective scrubbing action of the Hoover. The drawback for these was you just had to wait for the...

Agitator Washer Of course there was an agitator washer - OK I only watched the video once! The film certainly gave a truth to the expression "better than having to beat the clothes on a rock!" Going back to that agitator machine, i think the wringer was made by Acme - it looks identical to to...

More Evalet Seems to be complete kitchens too. I think that is a Philips vacuum cleaner in the janitorial cabinet

Evalet Those two turbilators must certainly have washed up a storm in that small wash tub. I wonder did they use a similar system in the larger wringer machines or would it have been a more conventional agitator.

Glamoren Carpet & Upholstery Shampoo Seems to be a rather similar system to Bex Bissell which we were familiar with here. I am curious about that Electrolux cleaner, although models varied from country to country. I could not help wondering if this product had any relationship to the US...

Another brilliant restoration Darren :)

The Kenwood vacuum I have is similar to that shown in picture 1 in Louis's reply number 7, including the tools

The cash registers look like NCR machines

Rondomatic I can see how it might be. Maybe as the door is of a different style and the full width of the machine it was reversible although it does not appear that the door catch could be reversed. Where were Rondo machines made please?

Metal strip Louis Wow, you do look at these videos with a sharp eye LOLOL But now you mention it, I can see it too. Rather like a much more advanced Hoover Twosome - I see the point you are making. I would love one of those AEG machines, or even a Husqvarna - I am not too fussy! I have not...

Louis I wonder if it is a twin tub - there is no doubt the two are a matched set, but the change in depth between the two parts and what appears to be two pull handles and also the change to the profile between the washer and the spinner at the rear makes me wonder if the spinner is an entirely...

1967 Radion Brilliant!
