Overhere in Europe topload dryers have been on the market for several decades too. Siemens had two models in the sixties, IIRC they were manufactured by Blomberg. Other brands sold those dryers as well I think. Here's an ad. When F&P launched their toploading dryer they announced it as "a world's first!". I mailed them several pictures of the Siemens and later models from Candy and Brandt. I never heard from him again, but shortly afterwards their website was down and when the site reappeared online they had changed their statement to "the world's first large capacity topload dryer" I think. As I said, the F&P engineers must have been thinking that they had designed something that hadn't been invented yet. |

Great to learn more about the European laundry appliances! My experience has been limited to a few Hoover products that the UK side of the family had! The drum style looks like what I have seen in some older US service and repair books - they seemed to indicate this type of drum was more typically used for commercial laundries, though. |
