The Benidx's look excellent and, being virtually unused, they should be. So glad that you were able to purchase them from Amar ....

Another Purple Haze!
What can one say.
I know they can be an acquired taste, but they look lovely too and nice to see a bit more of the range, in the form of a matching fridge!
Oozing 1970s brashness

and the other newbies on the scene ... the Colston/Aristons.
Page below take from Autumn Winter 79/80 in their Colston incarnations, so a bit earlier than the new in box examples.
Looks like you all had a grand day and good weather too.
All the best.

Wonderful material Paul! Thanks for sharing!
The AEG Novamat 85 is new to me. I have never seen it in later documentation. It must have had the same suspension as the Novamat 64, which was a "dancing" washing machine. It's speculation, but I bet that Novamat 85 could have had issues with falling over during the spin cycle, knowing how wild the 64 model could go when spinning.

Thanks
To Al for all his hard work, especially in the kitchen, hosting another excellent meet up.
It was great to see the little Colston in action paired with Richard's Debonair, I've just got the ironing to do tomorrow, and the Variotronic personal viewing theatre is an inspiration!

And as the title says we also had another first (which as well as the Ariston / Colston serarates) we connected up for its first use the Ariston 1970`s dishwasher, I picked this up from a family in Birmingham who had emigrated from Italy in the 70`s bringing all new appliances for their home being built for them - but their new home came with a fully fitted kitchen and laundry so these appliances where stored in the garage - fast forward to 2008 when they where moving and sold all unused appliances off !!

The controls are a mixture of programme timer selector with push button options, quite a versatile dishwasher !!

Pandandi detergent
Pandandi was a biological detergent to be used for the prewash only in the biological wash program (it wasn't meant for use in the wash phase as well: the results would be poor if you did): I can remember that a half-used box of this detergent came out from some corner under the sink when we took out our old Zanussi dishwasher that had given up its soul. I never used it or saw it used, my mom told me that it was more expensive than a box of Somat or Neofos (the Italian version of Calgonit, we have never been fans of the Finish products) despite being half the weight, I also believe that we never used it because the old machine did a good job on pots and pans on the normal program if you let them soak for a while before putting them in.
BTW, Mike, I love the G560 dishwasher: it is more or less like my G562.
