The link didn't work for me, but I found it on eBay Kleinanzeigen, here's the link.
www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de... No idea how a 120V spinner ended up in Germany (it's in Bavaria). Perhaps an American military wanted to take it home to the USA? Who knows. I think this must be a spin dryer from the 50's or early 60's. The motor is only 90 Watts, not a very powerful one for a spin dryer. |

I googled a bit and found out that in parts of Germany 110V was a standard until somewhere in the 50's. With the 50Hz on the tag that should imply that it was intended for that market.
This is a similar model for 220V www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de... |
