Wow, what a machine, back when even the lower-end models were still classy. I LOVE those vertical T-handle knobs. Congratulations Jon! | ||

Wow John! Very cool! I would say rare indeed! I had no idea that there was an economy model of the Duomatics! I love the look of it! Where did you find it? Was it in a basement? Do tell.... Thanks for the pictures! Brent | ||

Hey Guys & Dolls
This machine was in the Original basement shoved over to the side. Abandoned for NorgeTags. It was installed when the house was built. A woman Mark works with happened to mention the machine as a Bendix and Mark being very well educated by SteveD hopped on the band wagon. The woman was selling the house and so it would have gone out to the Krusher which she actually didn't want to see happen. But we all knew the "new" people would have hired piano movers and KRUNCH it would be a gonner! She had bought the house 8 years ago from the Kermanskis (??) and they had used the machine from new since they built the house. The owner was very sweet she was so relieved to see it come up out of the basement all 400 pounds of it! And she was so happy to learn it would be restored and not just tossed aside. It was a win win situation all around!! Especially the Cheesecake! When I get it inside I'll take some nudie shots for everyone. jon | ||

Peter I'll check tomorrow
but I believe it is 6 min soak, 9 min wash. It differs in that it doesn't have a 1)soak temp select 2)a water level selector and 3)a reset button combined with a seperate on-off button. 4 ) you only select hot or warm water. On my TOL 58 you have cold, cool, warm & hot water selection. So there are some differences. I'll get back to you on the times. jon | ||

Jon, another beautiful find, All I can say is that this Spring has sure been "Bendix" all the way for you. Maybe I missed it in all the postings but is it an electric or gas model? | ||
