Supaspeed 1150

I had to let the Creda 17032 Supaspeed go Neil,

Today I got hold of basically the same machine in the form of an Electra 17018 Electronic Deluxe 1150. It is in perfect working condition.

Hi Neil, another fine specimen of Creda...

If you are parting the 17032 out would be interested in it for parts etc, especially the AEG motor and wiring loom, cant let these rare specimens go to waste!!

Yes Mike it's a beauty! Is your 11500 still awaiting a bearing change?

Yes it is, but its the next one up, got the bearings and found the matching dryer!!

So I take it there are no parts from the earlier credo you got rid of, like the AEG motor?

Great stuff! I've been watching the videos on YouTube of the electra 17018 spin cycles and they seem slightly different to what i remember from my nan's 11500 model,
If my memory is right the old style creda/electra was just one continuous spin up to 1000rpm,where the 17018 has a short spin before redistributing and doing the final 1150 spin,and also the distribution seems shorter before going into the spin,
I've loved seeing the videos,great feeling of nostalgia! Hopefully many more posts to come from these awesome machines

Electra 17018

1150rpm Spin

I grew up with a Creda Supaspeed 17011 which looked almost identical to the Electra above. The only differences I can think of are that it had an 1100rpm fast spin and 600rpm slow spin. It also span differently by launching fast into a spin rather than beginning slow like this one and it didn't redistribute after spinning, it just remained at distribute speed until the timer advanced.

I loved that machine and I do still have it but it isn't in use. The bearings went for the third time and so the machine was replaced. I wasn't willing for it to be scrapped so it now lives in the shed. I intend on replacing the bearings at some point but I keep putting it off. I just hope it still works as it hasn't been used since 2004.

The bearings are still available for your Creda Robert.

Without a doubt the best looking inner drum from Creda.
