Washing machine/dryer etc front is still quiet at work but whilst rummaging i found a carrier bag with these in it, the only one i remember is i think its called the Aerialette or something like that, the one with spikes in baffels me! MATHEW Thanks for pointing out the bloody Kenwood Major, if forgot about that :-(, on a brighter note (off topic) i did pick up a lovely condition Moulinex food mixer complete with bits in a very funky 1970s white and orange with a chrome front panel looks very good PAUL & ROB The exclusive is a dark red colour Right thats me weekends spoils Gary Ps Keymatic is coming along nicely drums back in, just need time to test it, but i also want to check the motor over make sure it is ok, maybe change the brushes etc, as this up for inspection possibly next month :-) |

Hello Rob Thanks for that, i remember the cloth/plastic top one and the liquid ariel one, butr i must admit to being a boring old fart and i always preferred powders in the soap draw. Ah yeah and the little cloth bag in the packet my mate used for those tablets . Going back again, i remember seeing some large Tea Bags which had washing powder in them............christ is there no end to the ways of getting cleaners into washing ;-) I remember an ariel advert stating that there dispenser "got right to the heart of the wash" yeah yeah not in modern low level washers, oh and do you remember another ariel advert saying "it might look clean but is it really clean" what aload of marketing crap LOL........I think ariel are the worst offenders for advertising spin, but of course there is no end to it, as we see now with aerial gel persil small and mighty, turn to 30 and on and on............but it is all part of advertising history etc oh and that talking washing machine used in the "Wisk" adverts............ Argh i better stop............im too old and remember too much :-) So I am glad you enjoyed my balls :-) Gary Ps does that Hoover exclusive sound any good to you Rob ? |

Ahh bendix washers. Fond memories. My grandma had a 1000rpm in white model with the two dials which is very reminisent of the bosch WFF2000 i have in my shed. Programme selector and progress mechanical dial! I've attached a piccie below. It was a wonderful machine. She'd always have it waiting for me after school and on weekends bless her. Darren |

Totally agree Darren. They are smart looking machines. Have posted a piccy of the 7148 Autowasher Electronic below would be the first version of the machine, pictures of which you posted Darren (yours was a 71258). cheers paul |

and finally, the replacement for the 7148.....the 7168, from circa 1986. Cant really see any difference to be honest. Any ideas? This is the final piccy I have of the four digit 71xx's. To see any others would be great. regards Paul |

I never see a Bendix but I think of the wonderful Jean Kerr. I suppose they were more of an east coast brand, as I have no recollection of them in my early midwest memories, but "ain't" they pretty! |

No probs Nick, Funny you should mention about the Bendix being made by Merloni (Servis) as the picture above of the 7124 shows it has a different drum to the other Bendix machines. Its been bugging me for days about that one but it does look like the Servis drum although it has a hint of Candy Domino too. Not a true Bendix me thinks. ANyways back of a Hotpoint dryer.... Typical cant find a pic of the back of one of ours, wonder if Paul has one???? |

Hi Paul. The photo of Bendix 7147b looks great. I can remember my mums 7147. The machine was so quiet, even on spin. It also took under 1 hour to complete a load, unlike machines today. Paul |

sorry about the delayed responce. I have the EDC boxsett. There is an episode where Anne is staying in hospital and Martin decides to clean the house.He overloads the Bendix and it wobbles out into the middle of the kitchen. You get a few good full frontal view's of it in that episode. There's also 3 vacuums in EDC - a Goblin Housemaid, a Hitachi and a Rowenta Wet & Dry. |
