In this photo, the woman's past, shows ads washing machine "Tula-2." These washing machines were produced in the city of Tula, from 1956 to 1978 in different versions. "Tula-2" was produced from 1960 to 1965. Advertising in 1961, the text says that the new model has a timer that automatically shuts off the engine when the time expires.The old model of the washing machine without a timer and included push-button set in an alcove at the back where the power cord is placed. In the Soviet Union produced more such machines "Siberia-1", "squirrel", "Ural" and "Wave", they were practically the same, but first began to produce "Siberia-1", the prototype of which was the "Hoover."

Hello Ivan! Welcome to the board and greetings from Canada.
Great literature and thank you for posting that for us.
As others have mentioned, you will very much enjoy this site.

@al:
Yes, those McLary Twin Tubs were the same machines as the British Hotpoint. Without the heater though. They later became branded as GSW/Easy.
I've used them and yes they do have the Filter-Flo system which also used to drain the washer tub. Probably the best performers of all the Twin Tubs ever made I feel.
That's actually the last type I want to find to add to my collection-then it will be complete!
What really surprised me though, was to see the picture of a Simplicity/Speed Queen/Servis in the INGLIS brochure along with the actual Whirlpool designed Compact Portable machines.
I have never seen, knew of, nor have ever heard of Inglis/Whirlpool ever using that design. And actually, I've never heard that they even ever had Twin Tubs.
Must not have worked out well for them.

@jetcone:
The Inglis machines were built here in Toronto until about the late 80's to early 90's.
That plant also manufactured ALL Sears Kenmore machines sold in Canada as well.

Also-
GE
Hotpoint
Moffat
McLary(in the 90's)
Viking(for Eaton's stores)
Beuamark(for The Bay & Simpsons Stores)
Kenmore(briefly)
Concept II(a Builder's line)
we're made on Oakville, Ontario (not far from Toronto) and very close to where Hoover manufactured Twin Tubs and Vacuum Cleaners.
I believe that all GE branded Canadian dryers are still currently manufactured there although I'm not sure about the washers.

Another washing machine from the USSR.

The mass production of washing machines in the Soviet Union began in 1950 at the Riga Electric Machine Plant "RES", Latvian SSR. It was a washing machine "EAYA-3," which erases and squeezes 2.5. kg of laundry in 30 liters of water and had a power of 400 watts. Machine does not heat the water.
These washing machines were produced from 1950 to 1955, was issued to 19,000 units. This washing machine number 14104, May 31, 1954 release.

I would be glad if someone has opened a new topic dedicated to Soviet washing machines. I can not start a new topic(
