POD August 10, 2019: Philco-Bendix Duomatic

Have always thought the control panels on these were super-stylish. This photo, I believe, belongs to Paul (turquoisedude) via Google images.

So, was the Duomatic the Lexus of washer-dryer combos in its day? [this post was last edited: 8/10/2019-09:36]

I have that one. The picture is the one Paul has it used to be 10 minutes from me at Jon Charles house and I got to see it run which was aswesome.I am sitting in front of it in the CBS Morning News video.

The 58 Duomatic really is the sexiest combo ever....and I'll never break another nail setting the controls!!

Yes, the '57 and '58 Duomatics were very kool looking.

Still, I would not have wanted the job of moving them around in those days.
Beasts!
