Servis Spin Dryer

I am not sure where in the timeline this one fits in

Hotpoint Spin Dryer

I think this is quite pricy - I got mine for 99p. It has a timer though and, unfortunately, rust in the same places

Cannon

Whilst doing these threads I have posted several Cannon gas cookers which actually show the evolution of this long running model. This looks to be one of the earliest versions. Its not cheap for a cooker getting on for 60 years old

[vacbear58]

And speaking of getting on for 60 years

There is this - the brand is not familiar to me. This is actually 58 years old as it was purchased exactly one year before I was born - on a Saturday.

This is not cheap either!

Kanyda Kitchen

I am not posting this so much that people might be interested in buying it, but it is an example of a long running range of cupboards. As far as I am aware they did go on sale in the late 1950s and were around all through the 1960s and into early 70's.

Hotpoint Liberator Compact Dryer

In Bucks

 

[vacbear58]

Electra/Philips Dryer

The Philips version of this dryer was the first I owned, bought in 1980. I have an identical one in my collection and it still runs very well. This one even has the vent hose. its in Bristol

This one should be better

Kanyda Kitchen

Al
That Kanyda kitchen takes me back, my Aunt had the very same sink unit, the wringer for the Countess lived in the bottom right hand cupboard! I do like that Belling Classic but I'd love a Double 80, they look much 'classier' than my daily driver, a late model 90 in two tone brown. So very 80's.

Belling Classic

Ian
I agree with you 100% about the Belling Classic 80 which I would find very hard to resist is one came up. I have a brochure at home which I will scan and post if I have time over the weekend. It is another of those UK products of the time which showed a cleanness of line and unadorned styling. Hotpoint washing machines are another example as indeed I would say were the dashboards and interiors of the "Mk II" Triumphs.

That said the 1970s version is not too far off, I posted one last month - its reply #32 not quite 2/3 of the way down the thread linked below.

I also posted a kitchen for sale in one of the late threads in 2014 which had a Classic 80?

Are you not tempted by the Carron Capri in Derby which has just been relisted again? I posted that last month too

Phillips auto dry

I spotted this in st oswalds charity shop warehouse in Kingston park near newcastle I didn't know there were auto dry machines from this era mind you I don't know a lot about Phillips. It was only £15. Apparently works

NIB

I was going to write that I thought this was delusional till I saw what was actually on offer. Apparently new in box Moffat and cannon hob - so probably fair enough for those who wasn't gas

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Moffat-30...372?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item339ddc53c4

 

[vacbear58]

Another Carron

Although by this time is it a Cannon. Controls now at hob level and grill chamber can be closed. I do not recall there being an electric version of this cooker/

[vacbear58]

At first glance

I thought this was a Creda - Constellation I think the model was. It certainly is very similar, particularly in the hob layout, so was probably manufactured by them

[vacbear58]

And right on cue for "TriumphDolomite"

A Belling Classic Double 80 Extra - with fan oven, later model. Looks a bit tatty though and not much time left on the auction I am afraid

Reply #56 - a configuration for every but (t)

First, it's interesting to see the other side of the pond appliances here.

That stove in #56 is unusual - never saw a stove with all the burners in crop-planted style hangin on the front edge.
