I think you're our first Swede. I have an internet friend on another website who is in the Tyreso district of Stockholm. The Keymatic is an interesting machine. Welcome. Lawrence/Maytagbear |

Yeah, you can actually have the door open the whole program, but i donīt think its a good idea to do. If you are not careful you can hurt yourself you know |

Fredrik, welcome to the club. Anyone who has a functioning Keymatic must have a very interesting history of appliance fascination. Please share with us your appliance stories and any additional photographs of the Keymatic with the door open. Tom |

Welcome to Applianceville! Nice Keymatic I wish we had those over here. My friend Mike has one in the UK he is restoring and I got to peek into the mechanism with him. I also got to take the service manual to bed for night time reading. Boy is the timer mechanism in these units complicated. Very complicated. I love the dark blue tub inside. How long have you had your machine? Jon (Jetcone) |

Welcome! I've never seen one of those in person either. I only have a print ad for one and until I saw the ad I never knew Hoover made a washer. Thanks for the great pix. James |
