Hi Servisslimline,
No that is definitely the 70s/80s Creda drum in the WH34.

Hi Paul,
From the technical information I can see that the WH32 was 850rpm. Interestingly, the manual for the WH32 is missing from Serviceforce, the manual for the WH34 is there though. Thanks for the colour pictures, they are a vast improvement on mine. I'll do some research into the dryers for you if you like? Those coppertone models certainly look like rarities!

I love this thread already! I LOVE electrolux through and through.

Interestingly, i remember a close family friend having a Electrolux branded model similar to the WH31 it had the same super high cooldown as a comparable zanussi i loved i'm sure it was before the elux group bought zanussi.

Hi Tom

thanks for the offer of research - would love to kindly take you up on your offer, as that 'Credalux' dryer certainly had us all shocked when it appeared on ebay about 6 months ago.

Myself and Rob fought for the washer (Husqvarna) but it went higher than we were willing to bid, so we let the dryer go too. Obviously someone was after the full set, as there was a coppertone fridge and cooker plus an entire kichen being sold too!

I never knew that Creda made those couple of models for electrolux. That info was a real eye opener. Is it just me or can you detect the Creda in them? Its the thickness of the door that does it for me.

Really interested to learn about all these machines.

Cheers of the offer

WT40

Hi Paul,
I've done my research on the Electrolux dryers and it turns out that there was only one model pre-1984. The coppertone model above is therefore the WT40 introduced in 1981. See the link below for the instruction manual.

If there were any others they are certainly well hidden. Nothing else is showing up on Serviceforce, the exploded diagrams or technical publications.

Tom.

 
Just a small addition to my findings is that the WH1075/WH1100 washing machines and the WT40 tumble dryer were available in white, almond, copper and poppy!

Tom.
 
Bright Red poppy!

Electrolux certainly were brave! Wonder how many of those they sold!

Hi Tom

Many thanks for putting in the time to research these machines. Is great to know what that dryer finally is and I can moved it from the 'Electrolux/Unidentified' folder to simple 'Electrolux' one. always nice to know what things are.

Lovely drawing of the stacked pair on page 6 of the manual - looking nothing like one another. I really never knew that Creda provided a couple of their washers - a real eye opener.

Thanks again
Paul
