The plastic baffle on the bottom of the door vent scoops expelled air and passes it back over the sensing device....

The programmes...

 

[matchboxpaul]

and the dial...

The 1973 range together....

 

[matchboxpaul]

not forgetting that there were Jackson branded machines as well, though they never had a Sensamatic version. Again, the advert is from 1973...

 

[matchboxpaul]

The Jackson TD275...

 

[matchboxpaul]

and the Jackson TD400...

 

[matchboxpaul]

Then the 'TD' was dropped and the '37' dryer model numbering was introduced, with the 1977/78 series contained in the brochure.

The 37275 Compact 3...

 

[matchboxpaul]

and the rarer 37275S Compact 3S, with stainless steel drum...

 

[matchboxpaul]

and another version of the Compact 3...

 

[matchboxpaul]

and another version, probably another exclusive...

 

[matchboxpaul]

and this version for Rumbelows - the 37275RS...

 

[matchboxpaul]

Full size wise...

the TD400 became the TD400 autodry...

Laundrair washer & dryer...

Arhhh..I am now confused, I thought Parnall first launched this machine in 1960 as per the front cover of the September Which magazine (month maybe wrong) I though Creda approached Parnall to see if they could use their machine under a rebadge and some minor tweaks, to break into the major appliance market..?
Parnall & Creda would have had the same machine in the market at the same time, Parnall's Mk1 "Spinwasher" ran from 1960-64 and as far as i can see from a Creda brochure they had the Laundrair pair available in they catalogue of 1963-64.
Bizzare !!

and was modified to have a reversing feature, becoming the 37401 Reversamat - here is Mike's example...

 

[matchboxpaul]

and the TD400A Sensamatic, became the 37402 Sensamatic...

 

[matchboxpaul]

Washing Machines...

I am assuming that Creda stayed out of the washer market, from when the Laundrair was discontinued, through to 1976.

That year saw them re-enter the wet market with the 10100 De Luxe...

 

[matchboxpaul]

Though very reminiscent of the 1980 Smoother Hoover series of machines, it should really be that the Hoover machines were reminiscent of the Creda models, with the creda flush door cabinet being introduced 4 years before the arrival of the A3110.

Here the 10100 with a Hoover A3006 for comparison...

 

[matchboxpaul]

alongside the 10100, was the Super De Luxe model 10200.

I only have a Which magazine line drawing of this model...

 

[matchboxpaul]

Model 10300 Debonair - a missing link model.

Creda also produced model 10300 which was called the 'Debonair' and was sold as an exclusive model only, through independent outlets.

I have never seen a picture of this model - anyone?
