Hoover AutoJet and SupaJet

<span style="font-family: helvetica;">Love that video but the way she dropped those trays in she might have well tossed the dishes from across the room like Lisa Douglas used to do!!  That looks like it would be a fun machine to play with.  Were those automatic or semi-automatic?</span>

Miele G560

As the Miele 560 popped up at the start of a previous post and, as i had not used it for a while, I gave my G560 a run at the weekend - time for some Miele vintage goodness

"All the dishies in here are dirty

Speak for yourself!"

To give it a bit of a challenge rice milk pudding that had been slowly cooked in the oven on the left, the one on the right was not as dirty as it looked. The Le Cruset had a lamb casserole in it

Detergent

Speaking of detergents

They also make laundry detergent

As they were pretty grimey

I used the hottest wash - Intensive 70

I will just comment that this style of Miele - late 70s/early 80s is my favourite of all machines. I also have a dryer of similar vintage that I use all the time.

Results

I was a bit pushed for time yesterday so only got a photo of the top rack - no way would I ever lay claim to this being a Bobload

Nice looking machine...

Dishmaster

Automatic Or Semi-Automatic

There were versions of both, also with or without heater.

And I agree about the way she slams that basket in the dishwasher

the way she slams that basket in the dishwasher

Cultural vandalism. I'm surprised she didn't snap the basket retaining pegs off the sides of the tub.

Yep - Valerie is rather careless! lol.

Hi all,

This is the first time I've posted anything on here and I hope you will be able to help, I am after some parts for my Super-Jet, it's decided to start leaking on the floor today and I'm wondering if any of you know of any independents who might have some odd rubber bits in stock.

Superjet

Hello Christopher, from Sutton In Ashfield

It is simply wonderful that you are still using a Hoover Superjet, I have one myself. I also love that it seems to be in a 1970s kitchen

Give Gordon from Vacuum Exchange in Edinburgh a ring, I know he has some Hoover Autojet/Superjet spares in stock and he MAY have something that will help although he will need to have some idea where it is actually leaking from. I got some parts from him last year but he may have more. He also sells on ebay but a phone call is probably your best bet, good luck with it. Contact details are on the link and he will post parts

Hi Al,

Cheers for reaching out to me.

I've purchased a few things from Gordon for this dishwasher and other Hoover products but it appears he doesn't have the part I need sadly, the part number in question is 646167, I have reached out to a number of specialists that deal with the supply and manufacture of rubber parts so I'm hoping someone might be able to assist, if I find a business that can do this one thing I may look to have other parts produced to ensure they are kept working.

Hahah and yes the kitchen is indeed a period kitchen along with all my other appliances in the kitchen, that said I have a stand in washing machine until I can get around to servicing my Lavamat 2000, hopefully no rubber has perished on that

Hi All,

I hope you're all well.

It's a long shot but I'm hoping someone might be able to help with my Super-Jet restoration, I'm after the following parts 646123 and 646122, they appear to be broken on my dishwasher and I'd like to replace them, also, if anyone has a picture of what they should look like please could you show me it just allows me to keep my eyes open, your support is appreciated.
