Size isn't everything

I think these tops are designed to more likely give an impression of 2 1/2" - 3" thick although of course its just an impression, they would be in truth more like 3/4". You did see tiled tops here in the 1960s and 1970s although I have no recollection of seeming them with the bullnose fronts as you describe (I have seen them in the US) - normally just a wood trim

Nice looking Tricity Marquis - its mid to late 1960s, not 1970s at all. Nice, but not £200 nice

File Under Bonkers #2

Early 1970s Hotpoint fridge freezer. Well after sitting for 40 odd years next to a cooker its going to be pretty well knackered, not to mention the condition of the side next to the cooker. Maybe they have lived off salad since the mid 1970s. Curiously enough its sat next to a later version of the Tricity Marquis ...

have it straight away for the bargain price of £330.00 ......

Mid 1960s Bendix Dryer, not that rare either. Be interesting to know how they ran it off a two pin plug .....

Back to Normality

or what passes for it. Been a while since we saw one of these and it looks like a nice example. Clearly they should have gone to Specsavers - it is of course a Creda not a Tricity

Yes, the counter top fronts

were trim extensions only. The bull nose tiles used here had a drip edge bump to stop liquids from running off.

Mid 1970s Chef. Not cheap but it does look in very good condition

Braun Food Processor

late 1980s or early 1990s I reckon. Small capacity and it looks like the grating/shredding plates are missing

Braun grinder

I had one of these in the mid 1990s, nice simple design

Two Hotpoint Top Loaders - Timelines!

A pair of Hotpoint Top Loaders - the very rare push button 15960 (very, very few of these made before an update to rocker switches), and the later 15790. Fantastic machines, and I really hope someone can save them! Located in Loughborough

Mid 1970s Schrieber Kitchen and no, it was not made in Germany

And again, back to normailty

Late version Hygena kitchen, unusual to see in this style. Looks like it has been well used

One For Louis

Typical Mid - Upper line kitchen from the 1980s. Keller units, made in Holland. Presumably the appliances were all Bauknecht when new.

Here is something I never expected to see

Two different types of self assembly units from around 1974/75 combined with an "instant" multipoint gas water heater - all unused. This type of gas water heater is now extinct due to the widespread use of "combi" boilers (which power radiators and supply hot water) and a wide variety of electrical models, most used for showers.

Note the units are still to the old imperial module of 21/42" The kitchen units are very unusual 40+ years on from when they were sold. Its a shame about the price ......
