Hi Al,
Now that Parnall machine is "Futuristic"..I have a full page advert for the machine somewhere, but have been lazy recently, and need to get a scanner, but when i do, will scan it. The machine had a weird feature in the sense that it shook the drain hose to prevent any drips...don't ask me how, but they promote it on the advert !! Paul, I have a press release artical for the "Radio & Electrical Trading" magazine from 1969 for the new line of machines that Hotpoint were launching, The New Hotpoint 1600 / Top loader 1504 & the 1469 Supermatic..I will dig it out and scan you the 1600 when i get round to buying a scanner..lol Keith |

I got it totally wrong! Just spoke to my Mum.....she said my Nan's washer was a Parnall semi automatic bought around about 1956!....In my defense I was about 7 the last time I saw the machine! My Mum did say though, before my Nan bought the Parnall she used to hire a machine for a morning each week from a man who went round the streets with 6 washing machines on a horse drawn cart. You paid your money, he would bring the machine into the house for the morning and collect it in the afternoon!!!! Mum had no idea what machine it was he hired though.

Thank you for sharing this!! I didn't know that my favourite vintage washer (Indesit K5) was available in the UK!! Maybe she is not the best one of the test, but I'll bet she is the funniest to watch when she spins :)))))))) Bye Marco |

Morning Guys...Paul, David, Paul..
The artical i have was removed from a Electrical distribution magazine for the electrical appliance industry..it is quite big, and must open up to A3, and has 3 sections, 1600, 1504 & 1469..and from how it is headed up, it looks like these were the new machines for 1969 !! I will get it scanned soon, hopefully !! (while i am typing this my 1504 is doing the weekly wash..41yrs after it was introduced) Paul, the Parnall company which was based in Yate in Bristol was originally part of the Radiation group, and around the mid 70's was sold, after many companies owning it, i think it was bought as a collective group of companies by Hotpoint/GE. I am not sure of a Parnall front loader, but like many companies of the time they use to take a machine a re-lable it, so there could be a strong possibility..regarding the Spin-washer, it first made an appearence in 1960, and 3 versions later, ended in roughly in 1971/2 with the automatic version, which probably ties in within the selling of the company to Tube Investments. The "automatic" version probably ran for about 4/5 years but as you say, very little is known about it and the advertising was minimal compared to Hotpoint, Hoover & servis of the time !! Hang on...(keith run's to get the "auto" advert.... I love the heading to the advert i have it starts off: "Yesterday, there wasn't much to choose between different automatic washing machines. Overnight this has changed...This morning Parnall are years ahead" Two of the things that interest me are the "Brain Drain" button which as they state, drains the water hoses back into the machine, so they don't drip on the floor, (i thought they said it shook the hose, but unfortunately not..LOL) the other thing which is kewl, is the "Suds saver"..with their previous machines, after the wash you saved the wash water to a compartment below the tub, then took out the washed clothes, but un-rinsed, and washed the next load, but i am not sure how they did this with an automatic. I need to get hold of an old Parnall engineer !! As soon as i get a scanner i will post all this fascinating literature, it must be shared and not just stuck in cabinets !! Have a good weekend all. Keith |

The Radiation group (Jackson, Parnall & one gas cooker company, not Parkinson Cowan) was bought out by TI (Tube Investments - Creda) in the late 1960s. Whilst the Jackson cooker range carried on (with a few overlaps) beside the Creda range, the Parnall 275 tumble drier (which I believe to be the last Parnall product) quickly became the Creda 275, then growing to become the 400 and later the Reversomat version.
If you check out some of the recently posted (in other threads) early 1970s info from Hotpoint/AEI that includes Hotpoint, English Electric & Morphy Richards products but not Parnall or Creda. The Creda branded Hotpoint machines came much later as I recall, towards the end of the 1980s Al |

I am gob smacked by all this :-)..........i am trying to read all the reviews at once............it is just so good to see the diversity of machines, the different thinking behind them, the styling and oh so heavy build qaulity...........magic stuff all of it.
As others have commented, these machines need to be found (though some are already preserved).......arghhh it never ends :-) Paul thanks so much for bringing all this to the group. Gary |
