That would be nice if you can get a copy of the instructions Keith, they would be interesting to read. I've always wondered what these would be like as they seemed to get varied reports. Ian | ||

@ Ian,
Hi Ian, i will try and take them to work and get them scanned, some points in the instructions are worth while knowing from a users perspective as there are some quirky oddities with the operational use of the machine. I am sure the GEC Double Plus design was based on a european machine slighltly earier, the Perobot or Perex machines which were produced in the Czech republic in the mid 50’s & early 60’s, had the same concept, albeit the Double plus had the spinner enclosed within the washtub. I have just taken delivery of a Perobot machine, great condition & working, bargin as well at €50 !! The agitation is brisk and the whirling ceramic sprialator really creates some strong currents. The spinner is fast, but as the spun water runs into the wash tub all the washing would have to be wash & spun then rinsed after the washing water was no longer required. The Perobot & Perex machines didn’t have a pump either, manual draining is the only method. Cheers Keith | ||
