First Zanussi & Indesit Automatic washing machine

I think Acme should of made a washer with the same styling as the dryer!

As Matt says this was one of the first built UK dryers...This works rather differently to most dryers, it uses a large fan at the back of the dryer and sucks the air THROUGH the front door which has the heater in it...through the clothes to the back where its pulled to the fan and blown through the outlet vent at the top rear!!!

Hi Mike,

Love the pics of the machines you posted on this thread. Have you any more info about the Hoover Keymatic 3224. Just wondered how this machine washed.

Thanks

Mike,
Thanks for your pictures, I have seen there is a vampire Tale of Indesit from Favrit. I do know they have are a big outfit now under Merloni Etc. But does anyone have any old brochures also they made TV and Radios, Brought out the Hirundo name in the late 1970's and it went. Interesting

Thank you and all the others on the dryers. Everytime I go through my old Threads I see more. Funny how these manufactueres are not willing to send out stuff from their archives or send out promotional DVDS showing their factories
