Frigidaire "Freezer"

The quotes are because its not a freezer at all, its an ice cream conservator and operates at a temperature rather higher than a freezer so the ice cream is not rock hard. Its from the 1950s I would reckon, I used to see these very often when I was growing up in the 1960s

Electra Fridge

probably Tricity manufacture. This is a typical British fridge from the 1970s, under counter, about 21 inches wide with a frozen food compartment - pre frozen food that is.

Kelvinator Fridge

Bit of a trip down memory lane for me here as our neighbours had one of these when I was growing up in the 1960s. They had it when we moved to the area in 1965 and as far as I know it was still in use when they left in 1974.

Art Deco Fridge

I don't know in which reality this would ever be Art Deco! It says inside "Americana" - would that make it a GE?

Although very similar to the previous item I think this is a later version of it

Art deco fridge?

It's a 70's vintage GE for sure! In fact, that cabinet was used through out the 80's. They changed the bottom toe kick grille, and made the handles color keyed with plastic inserts running the entire top to bottom of the doors.
I bought one in 1988. They called it the "premier model". It had glass shelves in the fridge side. 1990 gave way to the "profile" series.

Velo twintub

The Velo was made in The Netherlands, in Barendrecht to be precise. They were sold as Norfrost in the UK too IIRC. I can't say often enough the later models are of inferior quality. Velaundry (as the name of the manufacturer was) used cheap components trying to prevent from going bankrupt. That policy was pretty much the reason that happened in the end.

 

[sesteve]

Ah thanks Louis

They look like they are well made aesthetically but I think I did read somewhere that it's the mechanics of the wash side that lets it down. Not sure about the spinner. They always seem quite expensive when they come up but it would be good to see one wotking

Philips whirlpool

I've not seen one of these in the dark fascia before.

UK Appliances

Thanks to Steve for posting the items to the thread. Someone else has kindly added some items directly to the scroll bar above. Whilst it is much quicker to do so I would ask that folks please post to the thread if they have the time - as we can have a dialogue about some of the items like the Velo twin tub posted above.

It also gives a change to highlight something unusual as I will demonstrate below. So please, if you have the time, post to the thread. If you are not sure how to do so my email address is in my profile, I will be glad to detail how its done.

Bendix Dryer

Now here is a perfect example of something unusual.

OK, its a late version of the Bendix dryer around from around mid-1970s to mid 1980s - so what?

What is unusual about this is that it is the larger 9lb version, something that is not obvious from the scroll bar. I had quite forgotten that the introduced this larger version until I saw this one, and indeed I think there was a 9lb version of the earlier styling too.

And the price is very good as well given that it appears to be in good condition
