Classic UK Appliances & Kitchens - March 2015

Tea Maker????

Silly people, its a coffee percolator. A word of warning to anyone who bids on this - they are VERY VERY fragile, it would be best to pick it up personally if you can, lovely and all as it is.

Much more modern Russell Hobbs

I bought one identical in 1976 when I left home. Note the difference in the connectors between this and the one above

Kenwood Soda Stream

It would be almost worth buying this for the curiosity value

Robot Chef

Along with the first MagiMix, this was one of the first food processors available the the UK - mid 1970s

Miele Kitchen

Its been a while since we had any decent kitchens, and although expensive, this is yer actual 1970s or VERY early 1980s at the latest. In good order its unusual to see the 60mm worktops which were actually much thinner and had a moulded lip along the front to give the impression of the thicker depth

Nice bones - that above kitchen.

 

[vacbear58]

Colderator Freezer

A name long lost in the past, I only know them from advertisements and the odd vintage item. This looks like 1940s although sadly not working

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281628583126?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

Hoovermatic

And seems to be in good order. Curious that the appliances pictured behind seem to be commercial items

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331505964413?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

Mixmaster & Blender

These seem to be listed at crazy process recently, this is more reasonable. Missing the smaller bowl and yes, the beaters are in the wrong way round. Its another example of plastics discolouring at different rates, when this mixer was new it would all have been the same colour as the stand, I am not sure I have ever seen one of these that has not discoloured

[vacbear58]

Frigidaire fridge

Late 50s I would think, probably not working but the price is right for anyone who wants to risk it

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/121595787845?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

Something a bit different

I hope readers will not mind a little divergence from the usual. I feel I should be stroking my pussy if I were sitting in this chair

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111622464247?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

And now back to regular programming

With a 1980s kitchen. The kitchen is pretty nondescript to my eyes but the Jackson cooker (badged Creda) could be of interest and its not expensive for what it is

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281627264461?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

Teasmade

Well no its not, its the Russell Hobbs equivalent, not cheap but possibly NIB

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/141605719019?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

And to go with the tea maker

A RH toaster. There was a matching kettle, coffee perc and milk warmer too. To say it was to match something designed by Susie Cooper sounds like complete bollocks to me although it did match a range of tableware from J G Meakin - which my parents used as their "everyday" set when I was a teenager

[vacbear58]

Well used Supermatic

Working although listed as spares/repair.

Belling Classic

You know, one way or another I must have documented the entire Belling Classic range in these threads by now

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/251880907598?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

Kenwood Blender

A late version of this classic Kenneth Grange design

Another deluded Belling Owner

I had quite forgotten that the 1st iteration of the Belling Formula built in looked like this rather than the one shown up the thread. As I recall it did not last that long before the more streamlined version came in. So this one is even older than the one up the thread - early - mid 1970s

[vacbear58]

Credaplan

Nice Creda unit (non fan assisted) unit. This is an second iteration of this unit so mid-1970s I should say and a lot better priced than the Bellings!

Credaplan

Al
It may even be a bit later than mid 70's, the oven door pattern is the same as on my Aunts 40073 Carefree, purchased in late 79 early 80 to replace an original Carefree from the early 50's.
I'm intrigued by the new BBC2 series starting tomorrow 'Time For Dinner' the trailer shows a 1950s gas cooker and a Creda Hallmark but I can't identify the cooker in the middle, looks a bit like a Belling Compact but the fascia looks to be all silver.

ps Did you get the Supertwin 70?
