Very cool machine. I am in the states so obviously it's a no go for me. The description says it's " a spinner." Does the inner tub actually spin out the clothes or does it just use the wringer? Could you provide some information on these machines?

Clarification

A case of seller ignoarance I am afraid, this is just a wringer washer, in the classic format, no spinning. Dont see them that often now but I believe they were built like tanks. The ironic thing about this ad is that Parnall actually did have a toploading "spinner" not too long after this machine - it was based on the Thor Automagic

Hi Suds & Al,
That machine looks like it has been round the block a few times !!
Someone has also decided to flaten & bend the entire drain tray up..duh
Nice machines though, I always liked the built in discharge pipe to empty the tub.
Cheers
