What kind of machine is this (new FL)?

[westtexman]

It almost looks like a FriGEMore, but it appears to have 3 dials and some buttons in the middle. Does anyone recognize it?

Equator!

This is exactly like the one I had. I should have never given it up for that LG with that horrable service. The Equator was a good machine.

Philco of Italy made these for Equator.This paticular style is now the same as the Thor.This was one of the best models made.I just today replaced a faulty pump on one 8 years old and this was its first repair!

Equator

We are in no way connected with Haier.

They were sold in Australia as both a Thor and a Bendix...and in the UK as a Servis (I think)
