Maytag
Hi Unclejohn
Great you managed to find a Maytag A50 twinny and yes for a small twinny it aint half heavy, those big induction motors weigh a ton, love the dual rotation pulsators aka hoover like but are much deeper..
I never thought we would see one this side of the pond but found one on ebay locally yrs ago..it was fitted into an RV motorhome and had come into a big fitters in the north of England to be re-kitted out, a compact Zanussi automatic washer took its place.
I did get an original spare belt for the pulsators when I was in North Canton the last Hoover convention but as its a clear polypropylene it also has cracked n crumbled so am going to get one (and a few spare ) made from a specialist belt maker..
