Who would have believed we are already a week into April?

Lets kick off with an American - Maytag Neptune. It could do with a good clean but the price is right

Creda

A machine dear to my heart as I bought my mother one of these in 1977 and 20 years later it was still going strong

Hoover Single Tub

Bit of a rarity to find them with a hand wringer. This dates from August 1977 and looks in good condition. It has a heater too

Hot Fill Dishwasher?

Why the query? Well hot fill dishwashers are unusual here, mostly its cold fill. I have no idea who manufactured it but the Moffat by Parkinson Cowan would date it back to the 1980s I think. I know for sure it was not PC who manufactured it, they only ever made gas cookers

AEG Dishwasher

Late 1990s or early 2000s I think

2 x AEG

Yes, the AEG washing machine is indeed from the mid nineties. It's the highest end model with the lower end timer with a separate section for the delicate cycle. The 6250 and above models have the long row of push buttons with only one full programme section.

The AEG dishwasher looks of the Zanussi design. I don't know much about these AFAIK these models were never sold in the Netherlands.

Another AEG

An oven this time. 1960s - rubbish - its mid 1980s.

In case it is not clear the upper over door is not hinged at the bottom but rather, it lifts up, like the doors on a Flair

This IS 1960s

Tricity this time, this model was also badged for English Electric.
You can only laugh at the price

Neff Oven

You will be sick of me posting these Neff ovens but they are good, mid 1980s

Creda

Early 1980s. This was unusual in that it had both rotisserie (small oven) and fan oven (large oven). I think this is a tad on the expensive side

Hotpoint Iced Diamond

Late 1970s early 1980s I would say going by the almond colour. This styling had been going since the late 1960s

This styling had been going since the late 1960s

As can be seen in this Kandya kitchen - I would place this as very late 1960s or very early 1970s judging by the tiles. This style of Kandya kitchen had been in production since the late 1950s and did continue into the 1970s. Although it looks well cared for personally I would not be paying £500 for it or anything like it

Nor £175 for this

I cannot comment if it is English Rose or not but I will say it looks remarkably like the kitchen in the council flat (aka public housing - probably built late 1960s) from 1977 to 1980. The "open" unit looks like it is missing doors, this could well have been made to conceal a twin tub as there is apparently no base to it
