I've just been looking at the Candy Group site, and found an interactive 'Time Machine' about the company.
Its really interesting but one thing I did notice, was a washing machine released by Candy around 1994, which used at UV light for a hygienic wash. Pic attached... Anyone know anything about these?

Theres also some cool stuff about the Hoover Aquavision Dryer, (where the water collects in the door) on the group site.

Oh and one last thing ;)
Heres the link to the time machine. (Its probably also relevant in the Imperial section of the forum, but I'll just leave it here for now!) On the menu on the left, click "60o Interactive Time Machine" > If your specifically looking for the Softwasher, turn the dial to 1985, and then slide the bar at the top all the way to the right until you reach '94 CLICK HERE TO GO TO l86810's LINK | ||

Tumble dryers only! Optima was not crap choice... In turkey are produced Tumble dryers only (as they were in last yrs of methyl). They say they will produce upto 1.2 million units :D | ||

optima was a rubbish choice the washer is 2 months old she has had endless repares done to it. and if the dryers are made in turky beko might be producing them with parts sourced from hoover | ||

A picture of the mystery, possibly electronic 80's machi The Mr. Candy, the machine able to tell different fabrics apart while talking to the consumer. Look closely and you'll notice that there's no dial, it could be electronic. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks

my guess is it has been discontinued cause UV rays are harsh on colours (expecially reds, it's very common that red shirts in shop windows turn to pink) anyway there is on on sale here in italy on subito.it (kinda ebay) CLICK HERE TO GO TO favorit's LINK | ||

Candy UV washer
Looks very much like a Hoover Newave & a Hitachi Servis Quartz when you see the full picture...
Interesting concept, lots of manufacturers are trying very diferent & radical ways of washing, so nothing new, even the detergent manufacturers, some of the stuff I`ve seen over the last year are interesting weird & wacky!!! But I wonder what will make it through as we use up valuable earth resources!!! | ||
