God this takes me back. 3 of my neighbours in the 70s had this machine (one being the clear door Electra version). I remember it spun at about 400rpm and had an induction motor. I seem to remember it being more stable than the Indesit machines which shook all over the place. I remember always wishing it would spin faster. I wonder how many of these are still about? Paul - I was under the impression only the slower spinning machines were made by Zanussi and the rest by Hotpoint. Rob |

And by all accounts a very popular machine by price!!! my friends mum had the zanussi GL2, she replaced an English Electric Wash n Rinse and a Creda Spinner with pump, blue/white one...kept the dryer because of the spin.....always remember the very large dial and an even larger ribbed outlet hose, it was huge by todays standards...such a quiet machine...she bought it from a branch of McConomy...anyone remember that one.....dont suppose you do, I`ve already been told I`m older than most of your dads...LOl...

Hey Guys One of my aunties had one of these when I was a kid- teamed with a Creda 275 compact tumble dryer. I believe the big button has a pic of a stained shirt so must havee been intensive/bio?? A primary school friends mum had an Electrolux version with a dark brown? facia, I seem to remember WH something being the model??- this resided on a trolley and was wheeled to the sink for use. Note the 155L water consumption! even my Hoover CC1100 at 134L cant match that lol!! Seamus |

Hi Seamus! The above Liberator 1826 was amazing with regards to the rinse water level. It beat Hoover hands down.....It was 3/4 up the door!!!! Mark |

Page 2. The weak points tend to predominate around the Microtronics and the small batch of Micros produced solely for Comet... |

Oh Blimey sorry for posting 3 times. Paul The back plate on the drum has 1981 stamped on it if that helps towards dating the 18880. Mark |

Keep filling in those sheets, you`re doing a grand job Paul!!! I wondered about the 1600,was it ever purple or was it a colour tint on the page etc, found this one the other day...Is that Radiant Powder in the sink cupboard?? Mark, what model is your machine?? your machine might be one of the first production models with the 800 rpm spin, it changed later in 1982. Here are the spin speeds, a little more to add.. 18780 Microtronic X2000, 1980, 800 spin, changed to 1000rpm in 1982 18880 Microtronic X2000, 1982, 1000rpm 18871 Microtronic LE White, 1983, Best Buy Model, 800rpm 18872 Microtronic LE Almond,1984, 800rpm 18873 Microtronic LE (Comet Exclusive)1985, 1000rpm |

18880 One thing I remembered though is that it is fitted with 3 leg suspension rather than 2. Dosn't seem to have a date code on the rating sticker though as was trying to date it with the information Rob scanned in. Mark |
