and t'other one

...in the form of the other 1509/05 Automatic de luxe, saved in 2010.

This machine subsequently went all around the houses, travelling from Plymouth to Cardiff. Then Cardiff to Chester. Then Chester to Kings Lynn. Then Kings Lynn back to Chester and now awaits final delivery to me in Derby.

I have seen two teaser pics of it and all I will say is that its appearance has drastically changed from the picture below...

May...

...saw us adopt a Hotpoint 9554A Microtronic 1000 De Luxe, courtesy of Gary.

It had been taken to the tip, with completely seized bearings and a locked drum. A total drum transplant later and the machinewas working again.

Has since received a replacement lid, but awaits slight touching up of the front panel...

June

Half way through the year produced a Hoover D7114 Crystaljet Dishwasher De Luxe.

This machine had been semi integrated into its kitchen and had lost its lid, but is lovely on the outside...

Hi Paul..
Happy New Year to all you guys "up north"..

Just saw the pic's of the Crystaljet dishwasher, looks absolutely fab, and brought back so many memories, this was the first dishwasher my parents had back in '86..and went on for some 15years.

The only thing remaining is the pamphlet.

Here's hoping for a good crop of machines for 2011 !!

'The only thing remaining is the pamphlet.'

not forgetting the instruction manual!

Hi Keith.

Glad you like the D7114 and it stirred some nostalgia for you. Happy 2011 to all you 'down southers' from all us 'oop nothers'!

Did that Candy twin tub ever come to anything?

Forgot about this thread.
I have had few machines leave, some went to homes, others went to scrap, and some new ones come in. Among the ones to leave are the Kenmore Electronic 90 Series set to Jamie(pulsator), Whirlpool BD LA5700XANO to a needy elderly lady, 1991 Kenmore 90 Series DD, old Bendix FL to Pete(rollermatic), Maytag reverse rack DW to Pete(rollermatic), Kenmore Calpyso. What came in: Ipso WE-165, Maytag Commercial Neptune, Maytag reverse rack DW, Ariston washer/condensing dryer unit, Horsey LG, Sanyo NP-9000, Kenmore Catalyst, Kenmore Calypso, Whirlpool Imperial Mark XII(LRA992), Whirlpool Imperial 80 Dryer.

 

[supremewhirlpol]

1991 Kenmore 90 series ended up going to some dude in need, but I got a feeling this machine ended up at the scrap yard.

 

[supremewhirlpol]

Same thing happened here.

 

[supremewhirlpol]

This Commercial Neptune came in and cleaned up quite nicely. Mom uses it all the time.

 

[supremewhirlpol]

This Ariston W/d I got from Tim(macboy)

 

[supremewhirlpol]

These went to Pete(rollermatic)

 

[supremewhirlpol]

This came in a few weeks ago, has replaced the BOL Roper, and does a much better job

 

[supremewhirlpol]

This machine ended up going to a very grateful elderly lady. I really hated to get rid of this machine!

 

[supremewhirlpol]

This 1989 Ipso came in the first week of May, was in pretty bad shape. After showing a little love and a some donkey work, turns out to be quite the commercial FL. At ~540 LB. requires some work to move!

 

[supremewhirlpol]

This Whirlpool Imperial Mark XII found me from Debbie in North OH

 

[supremewhirlpol]

This dryer came with it.

 

[supremewhirlpol]

Here's Horsey->Don't even think I can even call it a washing machine!

 

[supremewhirlpol]

This Bosch had to go too.

 

[supremewhirlpol]

Friday 1-7-2011-> first catch of the year a 50LB 1987 Wascomat FL184(3 phase). Another massive, awesome machine!

Last year I say I got several machines crossed off my 'essential machines' list. This year started off to a good note with the FL184

Hi Melvin.

Cheers for showing us your 2010 finds. Some familiar european machines there too, in the form of the big Bosch and the Ariston. Have seen those over the years in Comet and Currys in the UK.

Love the classic Bendix!

July...

Saw me buy the lovely Bendix 7133 from a fellow collector...

 

[matchboxpaul]

and on the same day that I collected the Bendix, I had earlier collected a Hotpoint 93730 Reversomatic + Creasecare...

 

[matchboxpaul]

and the holiday week in July, saw me and rob stop buy a regular haunt to find a Hotpoint 17351 sat outside awaiting scrap.

Heads popped round the door saw us given permission to take it away gratis...

 

[matchboxpaul]

and at the same time we were given the heads up on a twintub that was up for disposal.

We were given the address, popped round and collected a Hoover T5054 Hoovermatic De Luxe....
