and across from those machines, I have more of course on the other side of the basement...
Before and After
I did good with the overflow shelves of my vintage detergent collection, a lot of it I used up now...

This one really should go in the living room...
All your machines are showroom-perfect, Robert. The new setup looks great!
Did "The Pig" Wizard get the heave-ho? Love all the Frigidaires as well as the snazzy coppertone Montgomery Wards-branded Norge set.

And for now the '58 Unimatic has moved to the kitchen, I've been using it almost exclusively all winter long to wash everything but large comforters. It really does everything so well and so fast.
Yes last year the Wizard tub had completely broken away and crushed it's hub so unfortunately there was no saving it without finding another "good" machine. I filmed that machine multiple times so we have a record of it going through an entire cycle. At some point I'll get that up to YouTube.

New Green Wisk for the family wash, first non unimatic wash load in while...
Boy does it smell nice, clean without flowers and candy
Looks great Robert
Looks great Robert. I do hope to get to see them in the flesh when we come back to US at some stage.
Plans are currently afoot for my collection to be re-housed to a more permanent location, considering I'm looking to move in with David early next year.

Robert-
All of your machines look amazing! I am utterly in awe of your collection. If I were ever able to see it in person I would definitely be like a kid in a candy store. What you've done with your basement to showcase your machines goes without saying! Are all of your machines connected and able to run? You've done such a good job of putting the room together that we don't don't see any sign of plumbing or electrical collections which of course makes the machines just shine brighter.
Thanks again for sharing!!

Absolutely Gorgeous!
Robert,
Your place is so pristine. I could look at the pictures of your collection all day. It certainly has to be difficult downsizing. How could anyone decide which one is next? Congratulations on your years and years of hard work.

Great pictures of a still great collection! Between the Thor and the Apex, that's a Speed Queen, right? IIRC I have never seen that particular model before.
Personally I wouldn't have a problem to let go of anything coppertone. ;-)

Robert,
Thanks for the great pictures. With this snow storm here in the east it is a perfect day for a washin!

Westinghouse Spacemate 25?
Looks great Robert!
Question, is that the Westinghouse spacemate 25 from John's museum? Also, where did your (55?) Westinghouse slant front pair go?
Thanks!
