Whoops!

Forgot to mention the Servis is 34.

Here's my other Servis that doesn't work - Servis Quartz Multivent 262. It's 39.

And my pride and joy.

I'm still unsure of the dates for both.

The Bosch WTA2000 is now gone but I still have the WM64. WM64 is 1998.

And sorry, the 262 is 29!

Cheers.

Chris.

My Machine

Recently bought Zanussi EW1007 from October 1987. This is an Electricty Board Special. I have used it on a spin cycle a few times, but haven't yet done a wash in it. Sorry for the shadow overcast in the photo!

P.S - Aquarius800, I would say the 3305 is 24, not 34, so it would be 1989, not 1979!

My beloved Hoovermatic, just replaced the wash belt as the the wash action was slowing and lagging, back to full speed now though!

I got this just after moving out from the share house into the granny flat out the back with my partner matt.

This pic was in the granny flat, I had a neutral brown theme on the wall opposite so the Hoovermatic looked really good there.

Built in the late 70's/80's i would imagine???

When we got to the Granny Flat, there was this Hoover Commodore in the laundry, worked ok but had a lid switch issue which I couldn't fix. We were paying off the Electrolux at that point and this was just a stand in anyway, died quicker than expected though so had a borrow a Simpson top loader for two months to get by lol.

The Simpson I had to borrow from the friend that I gave the Frigidaire to. I actually really liked this machine :-)

I had repainted the laundry alcove by this point to my 'neutral brown' tone.

I had also just ordered some Gain and Downy off Amazon, my two favourite american detergents. The green topped Downy is a gorgeous scent :-)

Hoover Commodore

We had a fairly similar machine from around 1992 - (Feb) 2009, when ours developed a slight leak/electrical fault and was stopping mid-spin. The old repairman condemned the machine - stating it was not worth fixing. The machine was also sqeaking, squawking and making other odd noises during agitation. 

Suds save was used a lot in the early years, as it was using rain water, which was in scarce supply at our old, old house! In Perth, we had the inner or outer (cannot remember which) drum replaced around 2003, as the machine left rusty bits on the clothes. I think I still have the towels in use from then, which have those spots on them! They actually looked more sinister than what they were. Lol. 

 

Our old machine, after this one was a Simpson SWT802, HE. One with practically no holes in the wash drum. The recirculation pump died/seized sometime in late 2009, but the washer showed no error codes (Beeping/Blinking lights). We had a "daughter board" fitted in April 2011, after it decided to stop working. We toyed with the idea of getting a Maytag at this point - but ended up not, and got a Miele in September 2012 instead. The Simpson had a notorious "Getting Stuck" phase, where it would fill 1/4 of the way, stop for 5 minutes, then start filling again. It didn't matter whether you used Auto or manual water levels, it still did this AND would sense the water level. Yeah, so much for "Manual Control..."

 

This is the machine - Linked is the thread I made detailing this machine some time back last year:
