Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Help Support :

The Magimix 2800 is my favourite classic foodprocessor. There are quite a few on eBay, but all of them are incomplete more or less. What do people do with the attachments?

Here are a few:

Only with the metal blade as it says in the title, but in the picture is the plastic blade:

Only with the shredding disc:

Only grater, dough hook and whisk:

Metal blade only:

Metal blade missing:

Also metal blade missing:

Almost complete, the only missing thing is the pusher. The pictures are of this machine.

Top loaders

Thanks for posting the various items Louis. There has always been a small demand for top loading washing machines in this country - a market which was largely satisfied by the Hotpoint machine, for many years it was the only such machine manufactured here. And that demand continues so there is a small but regular stream of American machines here, as well as a few Samsungs, LGs and Fisher & Paykel. And a surprisingly large number of Australian Hoover top loaders.

Likewise for the H axis top loaders - indeed it was a surprise to find out last year that the first Philips models where manufactured in the UK - so there have been Bosch, Miele and any number of Hoover and Hotpoint machines as well a few of Brandt origin with different labels on them
 
Scales

When I am back home I will have a check in my old Which magazines but I think this machine resembles one the tested back in 1961. Rather like the pulsater AEG models I think it will suffer as the action tends to push the clothes above the water level, the only arrangement I have seen where this really seems to work is the Servis machine (which had a very large pulsator) or the Rolls (a Dutch design remember) where the jet of re-circulating water kept the clothes pushed down.
With Hoover the side mounted pulsator set up different water currents (seven I was told) which keep the clothes moving through water

This is the very simplest gravity drain machine, and must have been very cheap to produce, its a shame it is so expensive ....
 
More Dutch products

I know about Vacuumland, but I thought visitors here might appreciate this bit of 1950s goodness. Manufactured in Holland it was more commonly seen here branded a Romocco, rather than Erres who were the manufacturers. It is based on a 1940s Universal cleaner and we also had a UK manufactured version by Phoenix.

It seems like it has been beautifully restored, but the price does rather make the eyes water ......

There were many companies making washing machines in the fifties in the NL. The closest I could find is Domestic, a washing machine manufacturer in Amerongen, in the province Utrecht. Domestic had a twintub with a pump system, so there are at least some similarities between Rolls and Domestic.
