Do you remember when your Gran used a washing machine like this? The rythmical sound of the agitator back & forth, back & forth. The steam rising into the kitchen, the smells and aroma of washing powders such as Ariel, Persil, Tide and Surf. And the clothes being squeezed through the big rollers, squeezing all that hot soapy water out. Take a look and let us know your memories. https://www.flickr.com/photos/chestermikeuk/sets/72157601117659982
Welcome to our little corner of cyberspace and collection of vintage and classic household appliances.
Can anyone help me to identify or get more information about a metal electric drying cabinet that i have found in the house I have bought. It has an electric element in the bottom and you can hang clothes into dry...I know that the laundry/utility room was created in the 1960's but can not find a makers name nor have had any luck researching on the net. Has anyone any info?

Hello Gill, there are many types of Box Dryers that where around at the time, I will post a new pic and see if its one of these listed.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks...have looked at the pics, but no luck, mine is not like any, the cabinet is quite tall 71.5" width 24" depth 20"...still a mystery but thanks for your help

I remember my Aunt's Bauknecht 488s, it was a sharp looking machine.It being a German machine, it didn't fool around getting clothes sparking. Miss it so badly. Trying to find one to restore.
