Thanks Mike. Some pretty interesting stuff. Sure give me a greater appreciation for an automatic! Kind of comical to look back on a simpler time. A different world, really. Would like to have one of those Frigidaire Spin-Driers.

Well, you DO learn something every day
I had no idea that McClary-Easy sold appliances in the UK! They were a pretty popular (read that low-priced) line of appliances here in Canada in the 1960's and early 1970's. They got absorbed by a conglomorate called Camco in the mid-70's and became GE clones... It has been a while since I have been in touch, but I do have an aunt in Nottingham who apparently "has a garage full of old washers and twin tubs"... I guess that's where I get it from!! LOL

"My Aunt has a garage full of old washers and twin tubs
Hi Paul, well you had better get over here pdq and find out whats in there..!!!Lol...we dont need an excuse for a wash party!!! Have never seen the McClary Easy here but one of the washer gang has just picked up an "Easy" imported here which is 110v and needing TLC... The one in the report says it has a sudz save , would that be an inner tub (ie spin to outer tub) or using a sink etc?? Cheers, Mike | ||

Hey Mike! I am guessing the suds-save needed a tub to collect the water. I actually own a suds-saver machine, but have never used it because of the lack of a tub! I don't get over to the UK often enough, but it just might be worth a trip to check out Auntie Audrey's museum! I remember my late grandmother used to find it amusing that she would do the rounds of auctions and pick up bargain-priced appliances! Maybe I should get her on the board, too! | ||

Mike----- that is so kool. Would love to have one of ones with an internal pump. Do they sound like a turbine engine spooling up to speed? Thanks for scanning those brochures for me! | ||
