Hotpoint Countess

Until recently I had one of these (now passed on to a new home) maybe slightly older and I can tell you it still worked like a charm and amazingly quiet. This one does not have a heater and the flex needs replacing - mine went the same, the inner cores are fine, its just the outer cover that's bad. Its by no means cheap, but these are great washers

And mine did NOT tangle the clothes either, not a single item!

Electra Spinner

To go with the Countess perhaps - this is clearly based on Creda Debonair

From the same seller

Spinarinse - ridden hard and put away wet I think would be an appropriate description

Hoovermatic 1

This probably just needs a really good clean, the "problem" sounds like they just don't know how to use it. Wash tub is really shiny

Hoovermatic 2

Not that far from the previous one, this looks in better order

Spinarinse

Unusual to get the work top with them this late - this is from the same seller as the previous Hoovermatic

Green kitchen

Not sure I like the colour here. I think this is a vintage kitchen that has been re-installed - I am getting a vibe of someone who appreciated MCM design installing it as a replacement for a later kitchen. Whatever, for someone who likes the colour, the price is certainly right. Watch out for Sharon, Tracey & Dorien when you go to pick it up

Green Kitchen Door/Drawer Fronts

A possibility for someone wanting to re-create an old kitchen out of new carcases. The shorter doors and drawers are fine for 72cm high cupboards, the slightly taller ones maybe not so good. Don't like this green either!

Hitachi Fridge Freezer

Don't know how old this is but it certainly has a vintage look

Mprphy Richards Perc

This is one of my favourite designs and it makes good coffee too. Although there is no lead a Russell Hobbs lead will fit just as well

Braun

The manually controlled version of this filter machine (in off white) seemed to be everywhere in the 1980s - I had one myself.
