More familiar as Creda but marked here as manufactured by Jackson(same group company)

Indesit Washing Machine

1990s I think

Those Electra/Creda dryers must have been pretty fast considering their wattage. New full size vented dryers (what's left of them) don't have much higher wattage.

Wattage

Louis

I have never actually used a dryer of this size but I did check the superficially similar but larger dryer at the weekend and it was rated at 2700 watts. Incidentally, I was some what surprised when I found the my (infamous?) Miele 4920 dishwasher had a rating on only 2000 watts, although I imagine that opens up more markets (like Australia/NZ) for the same machine without modification.

Kandya

Got quite a lot of kitchens to post tonight. These are Kandya (except for the sink which is Grovewood and rather older) - these were around from the late 1950s although they were more comment in the 1960s and even made it into the 1970s. I think its expensive for the age and condition

1970s

This is typical of a late 1960s early 1970s British kitchen right down to the colour. The Moffat hob indicates that it is more like mid 1970s and the size of the oven housing (the oven shown is a replacement) indicates that it would have had a Moffat oven too - so this would not have been a cheap kitchen - its still isn't given the opening bid value on the auction.

[vacbear58]

1970s Schriber

Before they went bust and the name was bought up by MFI.

This is definitely mid-1970s although the AEG Oven (the top oven/grill door opened rather like that of a Flair) I would have dated rather later than mid 1970s. The hob looks like a Cannon, the hood over its looks to be much later and is really out of character with the rest of the kitchen.

I could almost be tempted and the price is right ......
Nah, I have spent far to much time fixing up my current kitchen to write that off

Eastham 1970s

The 1970s are getting a good run this week, this one by Eastham

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261967116752?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

Moffat

And now a nice cooker to go into your 1970s kitchen, it is more mid to late 1970s. Its really just a further up market model to the Tricity President above, both companies were in the same group

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171854821115?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

And for your orange kitchen

An orange kettle! NIB they say

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252026274243?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

And ...

A 1970s filter coffee machine

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/231621582216?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

Or this one

NIB but eye watering price

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201377282585?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

Or

An age appropriate Swan coffee perc - again mid 1970s - Art Deco? Bollocks!

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261789489407?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

Now this one could almost be art deco

I don't actually think it is, more like 1950s but I think it particularly attractive

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/291511663890?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

And still in a 1950s vien

GEC Fridge

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/191626796978?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

Or a Frigidaire

Made In England too

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/191626796978?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

Acme Spinner

We have just been talking about one of these over in Imperial

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111706624991?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

And back to the 1970s

Creda Spin Dryer with pump

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171856984756?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

And now right up to date to ...

the 1980s! Bendix dishwasher

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/161763400924?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

Not British

but French and something of a rarity here - a top loading, H Axis tumble dryer. Naturally its in Somerset

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FRENCH-TU...380?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item2354c7c03c

 

[vacbear58]

And something Spanish (I presume)

to go with it. From the same seller a Fagor washing machine. I did wonder if it might be made in China but no, the ratings sticker says made in EU so I am assuming its Spain

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FRENCH-WA...105?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item2354c7c6f9

 

[vacbear58]

Miele Dishwasher

Not sure how old this is - expensive

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/231624374924?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

 

[vacbear58]

Hotpoint Spin Dryer

I don't remember these but the name plate indicates that the claimed age of the spin dryer is just about correct - even more expensive than the Miele

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252025199190?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

Belling Format

From the later 1970s onwards, although in some ways retrogressive due to the positioning of the controls, this could be argued to be the most innovative cooker design at the time for 20 years, ultimately transforming the UK free standing cooker market.
