A few pages later in the November 1963 issue... The New Products column heralds the latest model of Monitor Wringer (waves at Petek). I had one of these fall into the big gay black hole of life as well. They are fun!

From the October 1963 issue I nearly missed this ad since it does not feature a picture of a washer to grab my attention...but it is about washers. This one is especially for aldspinboy.

and I'm gonna sneak in a vacuum cleaner! Because you know that she probably has a load of wash going whilst she vacuums her house in her cool hairdo! My ex-sister-in-law had one of these and I was NOT impressed, but then it IS only an electric broom, not a full power cleaner.

Hi David
Mike and i were just talking about these; check the thread above. We're having Hawaii-like weather today. We have never had an October this warm. I'm still swiming in Lake Erie. Hope all is well. Great pic on the new thread! Moms are great! What would we have done..........? Do you know how fast the Hoovers spin. I'm betting you do, and i have no clue except that it's really really fast like a vacuum turbine, which is exactly what it sounds like. Did they use the same motor for the spinner as in the vacs? | ||

Hoover - Who Better..
Hi David, thanks for the pics down memory lane, always interesting to see the different adverts etc...the first Hoover Twinny was produced in 1957....50yrs OLD This Year... They where manufactured in the brand new Hoover Washing Machine Factory in Merthyr Tydfyl, South Wales, UK...a typical mining area, benefitting from massive regeneration, sponsored by the government, with mega incentives to industry... It took a 6lb washload in each of the washer & spinner, an average wash took only 4mins with the famous"Hoover Boiling Water Action", the UK machines had a heater for the water, and a linked thermostat/timer...Hoover only ever had one paddle or pulsator and revved at 545rpm, the spinner spun at 2,100rpm . Heres a link to the machine in action CLICK HERE TO GO TO chestermikeuk's LINK

The model 0500
Hey guys As far as i know (Mike correct me if im wrong ) the 0500 was basically the same machine as our model 3334 and was made in Merthyr and shipped over the pond. The 2nd Us model was possibly also produced over here before North Canton was equipped for twin tub production . The major difference between uk models and those exported to the us was the heater - the only uk models without a heater were the budget versions whereas presumably due to the voltage issue us versions were not heated.

Hoover Twinnys
Hi Seamus, as far as I know the 0500 was the first USA twinny and was produced at Merthyr and shipped...The 0500 is the same as our Hoover 3345A (Grey Lid) David, Greg, Pete & everyone, where you aware of a twinny with a blue lid like ours?? This is what I know to date: Hoover 0500 US Twinny = Hoover UK 3345A Twinny Hoover 0510 US Twinny = Hoover UK 3301 (Nearest,No Heater & Empty Hose that basically comes from the pump, through the tub top), Hoover 6681 US Twinny = Hoover UK3310, non auto Hoover Gregs Yellow US Twinny = Hoover UK3314, with Auto Rinse Below is Roberts 0500 he had at the 2001 convention.
