Vintage Malleys Whirlpool Washer

Hi everyone,

A rare Australian made Whirlpool automatic washer which was listed on ebay but I managed to save some pics.

Enjoy.

Nice!

I love the Surgilator with the chrome top!
I haven't seen that agitator since the Whirlpool that Mom had, back when I was a lad.
Thanks for posting!

Very pretty! Love the console. I haven’t seen a left-hand opening lid on these before...is it because it’s south of the equator?!

It looks like they applied some Kenmore bling to the cycle options on this one.

Super-cool machine.  Timed bleach & softener dispensers.  Would love to see clear pics of the panel.

Whirlpool!

These look like really interesting washers, the only thing I dont like is the side opening lid! I prefer the back opening lid!

In normal use, side opening lid presents no problems.
