Lavar = Wash
Enxaguar = Rinse
Centrifugar = Spin
Leve / Tecidos Normais = Light / Normals Fabrics

Desl. Liga = On Off

Enxag = Rinse
Centr. = Spin
MOLHO = Soak
NORMAIS = Normals
LEVE = Light (Permanent Press)
DELICADOS = Delicates

Rodrigo,

Excellent collection, those look like very fun machines! Of course the Lavinia Westinghouse is my favorite! Interesting how instead of the rear basket filter on the American machines, it has a side-mounted bag filter. I also noticed that the GE has a thicker clothes guard than the American models, as well as the larger 11" Filter-Flo pan. Over here those machines came with the smaller pan. And that white Roto-Flex agitator is too neat...have only seen the gold version!

Thanks for posting!

So Very Fabulous!!!

Hi Rodrigo, I am so very impressed with your collection, you must be so proud! Thank you so much for posting your pictures, this is so exciting to see vintage Brazilin automatic washers! I’ve never seen a white Roto-Flex agitator before and that Agitator Cap that says “SUPER AGITADOR” is SUPER COOL! Did anyone notice the underside of the lid on the Brastemp washer, its speckled porcelain, another thing that I have not seen before on a Whirlpool design washer. The lint filter is also different. The “Filtro-Magic” mix lint filter on the turquoise Brastemp is very fun as well. The Lavínia is also just beautiful!

Rodrigo, where in Brazil do you live? I’m going to add a link to your photo’s under our Photo’s of Collections Button Right now.

Rodrigo ROCKS in Brazil!!

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful collection with us Rodrigo. The Kenmore/Whirlpool machines are my favourite, therefore it is a special treat to be able to see how these machines were made in other countries around the world.
You have a fantastic collection of very nice machines! Thank's once again.

Rodrigo's got it 'goin on in Brazil!

Thanks for the wonderful and interesting photos! I'm with Glenn---#22 shot of that tricked out Brastemp/'Kenmo-Whirly Roto-Flex is awesome! Would make a great poster for the laundry room. A giant Vita-Mix! Love it!

Rodrigo,

Thank you for sharing the pictures of your collection. The Brastemp set is awesome, love the pattern on the control panels. Does the washer only have a timer or are there other buttons or dials too? The turquoise machine is nice too. Are these machines belt driven?

Wow

Hi Rodrigo

A fab collection of machines, love the summer blue whirlpool, does the Westinghouse have holes in the drum, cant quite see from the pics and my eyes...

The double filter agi looks like it could cause a lot of waves etc...

Cheers, Mike

Hey Rodrigo!
Great pictures!!!I especialy like the Roto-Flex agitator as well as the Magic-Mix see through lint filter brush!! Your bicycle is also real nice I have a Schwynn 21 speed Fronteer and a Trek 4000 21 speed mountain bike.I use the Trek to travel to and from work and going on long distance rides 25 miles or more.I use the Schwynn to go to the store and thrifting.It has the large rear baskets to hold bags and washer parts.

Oh good, we finally see some of the machines from other areas of the world. How interesting. Yes, did notice the speckled porcelian under the lid.

Thanks for sharing!

Rodrigo

Wow I love your collection and how you have displayed them so nicely! Great Lavadora Room!!
You guys get OMO?? I LOVE OMO!!Its great detergent!!

Robert I agree with your observation of Rodrigo's machines I too love the writing on all the controls like the Filtro Magix Mix filter thats just too cool!

Brastemp what a cool brand name!

Thanks for sharing Rodrigo and thanks for the dictionary for translation----what a big word for "Off" "Desligado" what does it mean in Brazillian "No=Des Power=Ligado"???

A big welcome to AW!! From me and Aloysius!!

Hi Louis and Jon

The white Brastemp washer has other model with water level and temp dials, like Brastemp turquoise, but is rare.

All mechanism is belt drive. The mechanism Brastemp & Westinghouse washers in Brazil are identical American Whirlpool & Westinghouse.

And Jon, Tide is Omo in Brazil. Is the best detergent.

Thanks

Rodrigo

Beautiful. Thank you so much for posting!

 

[Unimatic1140]

It is my great dream to have my collection in the “Photo’s of Collection”.

Well its there now Rodrigo, and you certainly deserve it!! Your line up of vintage machines is so great! By the way in picture #11 you say "My Brastemp Washer 1965 (customized), with console 1978". So what did the 1965 control panel of the Brastemp look like?

Also where in your house are your machines, is this a garage or basement?

 

[bestcleaning]

Hi Robert

Now I have TWO great conquest: Kenmore set and my collection in the Automaticwasher.org. Thank you very much.
My collection are in my basement. My Brastemp washer is “customized” because I’d like a vintage washer (lateral lid open) and a beautiful console (my favorite console). And I made it.
The Brastemp 1965 is approx. like this.
