Robert’s thread about the introduction of automatic washers in the newspapers made me have a look again at the Dutch archives. I have posted a few threads with Dutch ads in the past. The first ads are from 1953. I looked a bit furder and much to my amazement I found a 1958 advertisement with a...

My German friend Stephan is repairing the Keymatic I once owned. He has a question about it. Because his English is not to good he asked me to start this thread. His question is if the seal in the picture is the only one. Or is there a second seal behind the part where the impeller goes on...

I treated myself to a new car. It’s a Citroën C3 hybrid automatic. A very comfortable car with very comfortable seats. Just what my pelvis needed. 😉 Second picture show the Citroën and my 13 year old Smart next to eachother.

https://www.ricardo.ch/de/a/v-zug-unimatic-fuer-museum-1282444858/ Not exactly a bargain though. I guess they think they have found a goldmine.

I had an old Bosch micowave combi oven. One of the heating elements broke down for the second time. Decided I wanted something new so ordered a cabinet and an oven. The oven is a Siemens with built in microwave.

I have been watching Tyler and Todd’s Youtube channel since the beginning. This week they installed new kitchen appliances in their cabin. On the cutlery rack it says Cafe so I presume they are GE appliances.

This is a new product here. A rotating clothesline, faster than a stationary line and cheaper to use than a dryer.

This morning I was driving passed a second hand shop. I noticed there was a wringer washer standing outside. I had to stop and have a closer look. It was a Miele 75T complete with Miele wringer. It is a semi automatic machine that works with a thermostat and automatic start when the selected...

We start with another Electrolux ad, this one is about the Electrolux home service.

For the German members (as if they aren't looking themselves lol) and for the people interested. The condition is great considering it's 50 years old or there about. https://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/waschmaschine-miele-typ-w412s/2186362676-176-8704

A video about modern appliances compared to old fashioned methods: "Den elektrifiserte husmor" literally translated the electrified house mother. lol There is a part about Evalet washing machines, including a demonstration of the spinner on water pressure.

Ikea has put all of their catalogs online, from the first one in 1950 until the last one. They are all in Swedish. Nice to browse through them though. https://ikeamuseum.com/en/digital/ikea-catalogues-through-the-ages/

I came across this NIB 12 year old Thermomix. Just when I had decided that I didn't really need a Thermomix, this came by on a Dutch auction site. I just couldn't resist! Overhere used TM31 models go for 450 - 500 euros. This one was still unused (when i used it for the first time, that new...

First one is a Huebsch gas dryer. https://link.marktplaats.nl/m1662434982 The price was lowered to 25 euros ($30.-), but apparently noone wants one. I guess it's not only the odd size for Europeans, but also the fact it's a gas dryer in a country where people can only have condenser or heat...

Yesterday while going through the brochures for the German / Dutch Twin Tub thread suddenly this brochure fell out of another one (In the best possible taste ofcourse ;-) ). I thought our British members might be interested in this, because their TOL models are identical to the Hotpoint Empress...

While discussing V-Zug appliances and looking around at the Swiss Fust website, I noticed that they had a pink Bosch handmixer in their assortment. I looked at the Dutch Bosch website, but this particular model wasn't there. So I shopped around a bit at German websites. I noticed that Otto.de...

The outside of this house was used in the series. It's in LA, not in Florida. https://www.housebeautiful.com/lifestyle/a33327278/golden-girls-famous-tv-house-for-sale/

If I only had the space for this! It has the blue accents, so this is an early one of this kind of dryer. https://link.marktplaats.nl/m1560315509
