Of possible interest to UK members, I have spotted this machine for sale in the Stoke-On-Trent area.

'Hoover Electronic 1050 Deluxe - Model 9605W - Serial 34129766'

A cursory inspection finds it to be in reasonable cosmetic condition for it's age, the perforated inner drum being clean, shiny, and rust-free. Agitator-mounted filter tray is present


The seller is asking £50.

I didn't have a camera with me when I spotted it, so no photos, but I can return and Take pics / make specific observations if required.

In extremis, I may be willing to purchase this on a member's behalf, and hold it until arrangements can be made for collection.

Hope this is of interest to someone.

All best

Dave T

Hoover / Hotpoint

I could have sworn it was a Hoover, but I'm getting old, and my memory isn't what it used to be..... I'll check up and get back to you.

The Lid as shown in the pic above is present... No idea about instructions.

I'll see what I can find out about it.... Maybe even get a pic or two

All best

Hotpoint

Thanks

Hotpoint

Yes, it's a Hotpoint, as shown above. The 'worktop' insert is present, but no sign of any instruction book. It appear to me to be a 'twin-tub' in one tub. Normal Hotpoint agitator surrounded by a perforated drum for spinning. An interesting concept, but unfortunately I have neither money nor space to take it home and try it.
Presumably just another evolutionary 'dead-end' in washer development.

All best

Well hardly considering this machine had more or less a 30 year production life starting in around 1963 and ending in around 1993. Of course it evolved over the years, and the one you have quoted is towards the end of the series. When it launched the British auto washer market was approximately 50/50 TL to FL, by the end of the 1960s this was the only UK manufactured top loading washing machine of this type, and it continued to service its niche for many, many years.

There are many threads about these on here and overall they are quite good washers, the chief disadvantage being the amount of water they use.

Thanks for the info, Vacbear. It's good to get a bit of history on these things.

My mother had a TL H-Axis Zanussi for many years (I can't remember the model number, though I do have the owner's handbook for it somewhere.) She bought it because it was the only machine available at the time which would fit into the very narrow space she had available in her kitchen.

All best

the Date Code dates this to October 1996 and production continued until around 1999 when a Fagor/Brandt produced model replaced it :)
