Here is another cobbled together video of a very rare Hoover Selectamatic 1100 washing machine from the late 1970s. This machine uses a combination of a keymatic selector and a mechanical progammer for its programing CLICK HERE TO GO TO electron1100's LINK |

Its rusty down there because, for part of its life, it will have been in this kind of position... |

Another one near-mythical Hoover saved for posterity! I'd love to hear the story behind it... Great that another matching set has been found, thanks for posting the video Gary! |

Simon Paul Rob Mathew All of you To have spent a weekend in excellent company and with such fantastic machines has been a real high, the tea pot was never empty and the food just kept coming :-) The vidoes were a bit of a haphazard affair, Harry Mats dog was interested in everything that was going on, so was often in shot, half way through the Selectamatic video the two lads turned up with the D6096 dryer so there was much chatter and distraction going on........... Hence the heavily edited and disjointed videos of both machines, as with the 3203 we were all amazed by it and wanting to talk and watch and fiddle about with the machine as we were filming......i have some of the 3203 spin somewhere for some reason i missed the end.............sorry i will try and sort something but I cant be sure. But yes what a pair of beauties.......so pleased to have seen and watched them Now really we need the owner Mathew to come on and say something, he is a diamond host and great guy. So thanks again Gary |

Does this machine have a pop-up tower? Was the machine a 'Crystaljet'? |

...and below is the D7016 Super Jet. Both featured pull on/push off dials! Smart machines - never seen one in the flesh though. Paul |
