    Had a Hoover Keymatic myself in the 80's. second hand machine in imaculate condition, had a slanted front with a drop down door and small clock face type dial to tell you at what stage the programme was at.

      Great machines, usually if it survived into the 80`s it was well looked after, very complicated washing machine, but fun to use!!
