That's definitely a full load---and in the absence of the great man himself to bestow it officially, I will be so bold to proclaim it a BobLoad®. Merry Christmas!

What kind of dishwasher?

Rich! That is too cute - where did you find those fun dishes? Are they melamine or ceramic?

Neil - I think you've crossed the BobLoad barrier! That Portmerion (?) dinnerware is beautiful!

Our Xmas appliance shots

mattywashboy's profile picture
We spent Christmas at my aunt Allison's place (i have two aunts and we alternate every year.
We had a wonderful xmas dinner despite me being in a lot of pain with my back but we still had fun.
I took some pictures of all her appliances while i was there. She has A Simpson Riviera dishwasher which is quite old now and you have to guess where the timer is landing because all the writing has rubbed away.
She also has a Simpson EziSet 5.5kg washer with a Hoover 5kg dryer attached to the wall above.
Heres a pic firstly of the dishwasher (pardon the quality, its hard to be inconpiscuous.

washer

mattywashboy's profile picture
Next is the washing machine. Its a good machine and gets used at least twice a day, when i babysit my cousins i am always asked to put some washing through and hang it out. She keeps it set at Non Colourfast which is decent enough but she insists on using ECO Rinse which replaces the deep rinse with a long series of spray rinses, pretty pathetic.

And the dryer
Hoover, these are really popular over here and i know at least five people who have the same model dryer.

Enquiring minds want to know!

OK back to that Aussie HOOVER dryer.
HOw cool to see a wall-mounted situation!

Dimesions?
Front venting into room? Ventable to the outside? Or is grille on the door an air intake?

Wattage? /Amperage?
May I preseume that the amperage makes this a plug-and-play type of situation where, just as in Europe, it just gets connected to any outlet /power-point?

Those Hoover dryers and most australian dryers vent out of the grill at the front. If you look in the center there is a latch that you use to pull off the front, behind that is the lint filter. To start the dryer you select your time on the dial and then press the door latch and the dryer starts, These models were non reversing. The wall mount style is typical of australian laundries due to lack of space in our laundry rooms and it is certainly a back strain saving way of moving your clothes from the washer to the dryer. Most australians however take advantage of the all year round warm weather and peg their laundry outside and only use their dryers a few times a year.
In terms of wattage/amp, i have no idea, you just plug it straight into a normal power socket and your ready to go.
I find it very cool how when you purchase the dryer you are asked weather you need the controls orientated so that you can read them while mounted on the wall. I remember that particular dryer was once on the floor and the controls were upside down!.
As far as i know its a good dryer and i have used other peoples and they hold a decent amount of laundry and ae able to dry most full loads in an hour.

Pssst! Don't tell Bob!

OMG! Please tell me that all of those dishwasher loads were pre-rinsed!! ;-)

On another note...Matt: What a great dryer concept! That would definitely come in handy in my "laundry closet". BTW, how complicated is it to get serviced or replaced?

Venus - no pre-rinsing here :-P. You should know better! :-P

Venus, it appears all of these dish loads didn't see water until the machine was turned on!! You will learn and succumb some day!!

Bob - in terms of my Bobload skills, how does this year's load compare to last years Christmas load? :-)

Laundy Rooms / Dryers wall mounted

We have a simular set up in our "Fabric Care Centre" cupboard, A 7.5kg (16.5lbs) F & P intuitive washer & a 5.5kg Simpson (Now Electrolux) "auto reversing" with mechanical timer dryer wall mounted above it. I will try and get some pictures loaded up ASAP :-))
The Hoover & Simpson dryers operate in different ways.
The Hoover dryer is a postive pressure dryer, blowing heated air from the back of the unit through the clothes venting thru the front door. Some of the cheaper/smaller F & P dryers have the same front door filter/ vent.
The Simpson dryers have the lint filter at the back of the drum held on with some dodgy plastic clip arangment and the vent shoots up over the rear of the unit... you can get a venting kit that allows you to attach a venting kit (duct tube) and vent the warm, damp & dusty air outside or thru internal ventilation system.

Jon, you did an outstanding job as usual. I am curious about those two blue rectangular cassarole dishes in the bottom rack. I'd love to know what the U.S. measurement equivement (in inches) is. Also what they had cooked/baked in them and how crusty they were. With those considerations, I could be amazed they came clean. I have a hard time thinking about near nesting of identical size pieces like that on top of each other, particularly the one on the outside of the other lol.
