My only find for 2010 was the liberator de luxe 1851/03, a machine I have been longing for, four some time, it came via the thread for the liberator de luxe 1828/02 and another member wishing to move it on.
This machine is still work in progress, it’s a shame the bad weather over December stopped the restoration, at -15c it was too cold to work out in the garage, now bloody illness have put a stop on it, still much to do and I’m looking forward to completing the restoration soon. Not much of a photo, she’s not at her best in this one. |

Hello and Happy New Year to everyone out there, I hope 2011 will be at least as good, if not much far better then 2010 for us all! Mike, that Bendix set is absolutely stunning! WOW! Now I have to say… among all my 2010 acquisitions, I was not specifically looking for any of them. For many it was “right place at the right time” or I was just looking through Craig’s List and happened across an ad for something that caught my eye. Starting with the beginning of 2010, Andy (RedCarperDrew) and his wife drove down from Reno, Nevada (about 9 hours one way) and brought “a few machines” to trade for a turquoise, 1959 Maytag washer and dryer I had for him. He brought this beautiful 1970 GE V-16 program washer and matching dryer, the 1973 Frigidaire 1-18 washer & matching dryer, plus this little 1971 GE portable washer (made by Hitachi).

Another week goes by and a friend gives me his 2004 Whirlpool Calypso washer after buying a new Kenmore Elite front load steam washer. Then the following week… I go and buy the same model Kenmore Elite washer he did, just in a different color. The only reason I bought it, it was on close out and the price was marked down 65%, more then $1000 off!!! How could I NOT buy it, right? This post was last edited 01/01/2011 at 17:46 |

Now late March 2010. A friend in San Diego e-mails me a link to a Craigs List ad for an old Bendix front load washer & dryer. It turns out to be a 1953 or 1954 Bendix model WEG-H, “Magic Heater” washer! Imagine, mid 50’s front load washer with a built in heater! I had no idea! Of course I HAD to go buy them! Then in early May, Robert (our AWESOME webmaster) posts info that a guy (local to me) listed a 1959 Lady Kenmore combo washer/dryer (in PINK no less) on Ebay. I contact the seller and go look at it since it’s only 30 minutes away. After looking at it and talking with the seller for a while, I make him an offer to take it off Ebay and sell it to me. He declines (much to his regret, I’m sure) saying he’s going to let the auction run it’s course. That was completely understandable. However, I was the only bidder and won the LK Combo for A FRACTION of what I offered him the week prior! I picked it up just a day before flying to Minneapolis for Robert & Fred’s fabulous Wash-In.

At the end of April, a month after having the most AMAZING time of my life at Robert & Fred’s Wash-In, I’m wasting time searching Craig’s list again and come across an ad for this 1963 Lady Kenmore 800 washer. Again it’s less then 30 minutes away and I go meet the seller. It was his mothers washer for many years, but she’s no longer around and he’s selling the house. The washer more or less works (it tries to agitate and spin at the time) but it does need a full rebuild… bearings, seals, pump, etc. But hey, considering I only paid $10 for it, I couldn’t pass it up!

On September 7th, Malcolm (MRB627) posts a Craig’s List link here on AW for this set. The washer is exactly the same as one I brought home from Phoenix, AZ over a year earlier, but unfortunately it was too far gone to be repairable. Since this one is in much better condition and has a matching dryer, on Saturday, Sept 11, I drove from LA to Yuma, AZ and back (11 hours round trip) to pick them up. |

We are now in December and the time has finally come to make the drive to central California to pick up a washer that’s been sitting there waiting for me for 3 or 4 months. Earlier in the year, March perhaps, I did something I would normally NEVER do, I bought a washer that was on the other side of the country! This 1970 Kenmore 800 washer traveled from Boston all the way to LA! Fortunately a good friend who has an affinity for Kenmore washers & dryers and has a way to move things to certain parts of the country for very little cost, arranged to get this washer to California for me. THANKS GORDON! |

A Kitchenaid (made by Hobart) KD-A portable top loading dishwasher! This one arrived in early August, 2010. It's somewhere between 38 and 46 years old (not exactly sure), but the "hurricane in a box" still works GREAT! SO there you have it... 2010 had been a banner year for appliance acquisitions! Happy New Year! Kevin |

Hi Paul..
Happy New Year to all you guys "up north".. Just saw the pic's of the Crystaljet dishwasher, looks absolutely fab, and brought back so many memories, this was the first dishwasher my parents had back in '86..and went on for some 15years. The only thing remaining is the pamphlet. Here's hoping for a good crop of machines for 2011 !! Keith |

Hi paul and all,Happy 2011.My find of 2010 was a Thor Automagic.It worked well at first but it,s downfall was a badly rusted tub base,especialy just above the motor which got wet and burned out.So that was the end of that.It appears that seeing other Thors manufactured elsewhere that they were built with a vitreous enameled outer tub, whereas our english built machines only had painted tubs.Im used to moving washers but i havent encounterd such a heavy washer before ,it felt like it bolted to floor.I dont have any pictures of the washer but i did keep the instruction book and ilustrated parts list with prices.So if anybody wants an instruction book and parts list going free to a good home will only cost you postage let us know.Was a fun machine whilst it lasted and had a very powerful long stroke agitation.2011 is looking good already,spotted on ebay for january Zanussi Wascraft 929.Philco Bendix home laundry center.Electra microtronic 900 A.K A. Servis quartz and just for Paul a Hotpoint Microtronic that looks prety good and only in Leicester.Have tried to post some pictures of the Thor literiture.All have good new year regards Nige.

Not really "new" this year except for the Radarange, but the garage got a makeover and we have two dishwashers installed and ready for duty. A huge shout-out to Cory for sending the panel to the RR-10 making it a contributing member of the collection again and failing to mention Ben's assistance with numerous repairs and electrical magic spells would be a massive blunder! The Maytag combo lives again, the Marantz 2270 receiver plays and of course, the Power Surge we've all been working on for a couple of years!

The Bendix 7133 was the 1st machine I bought when I moved into my first flat. It was second hand.....unfortunately it developed a serious leak via the thermostat seal after 3months...I replaced the seal but wired up the thermostat incorrectly and the machine blew causing the machine to behave strangely. It would fill, spin, drain, tumble, fill then pump out. Entertaining to watch but not practical for washing clothes....it went back to the second hand appliance store I got it from.

No surprises there. The first Hoover dishwashers were manufactured by Zanussi. I believe the second series were manufactured in the UK, but that would be mid 1970s. I had a machine like Paul's from 1988 until around 1995 as my "daily driver" but I did not like it much, its did not seem as good as the Philips which i had before or the Indesit I had after.
