Thanks for posting Louis, that is a great video. At 5:45 the washing machine is branded Elux-Miele! |

It appears that I posted this same video a few weeks ago to in part 1. There are two channels with Swedish ads, Teknik 2000 and Svensk Nostalgi. Totally forgot about that while I watched the full video back then. Age and Nutrasweet! lol
Yes, an Elux-Miele indeed. Nowadays Electrolux is the much bigger company, back then not yet I guess. |

There was so much to like in that video, and great to see the "Twosome" that we had discussed before with the washer paired with the slightly differently sized spin dryer. In some ways this could be argued as the best of all worlds, the convenience of an automatic (or perhaps in this case semi automatic) with a high efficiency spin dryer

This is what out Which magazine had to say about it in 1973. They rated it good value for money, I would love to find one someday although they are a rarity in the UK to say the least of it

We also had Dual floor cleaner and polish in the UK although the bottle was different. As I recall it was better on linoleum or vinyl tiled floors than ceramic tiles.
And Comfort remains a big brand of Fabric Softener, in 1965 it was pretty much unheard of. Hard to tell what brand the top loading H axis machine is but there is a good, if brief view of the Husquvarna branded AEG washer CLICK HERE TO GO TO vacbear58's LINK |

The Turnamat S was the second generation one. It was more efficiently (or somewhat cheaper if you want) than the first generation Turnamat we see in the window of the shop in the video. It was the Turnamat S that made an automatic washing machine reachable for a lot of people. Despite AEG's price policies (a set price for them) a lot of dealers sold them for a lot less than AEG wanted.

1966 film - Volta was an Electrolux brand. In this country they were, generally, variations on the standard Electrolux model line of this time but this one is rather different, with various design features which would not be seen on their Electrolux line for several years. This cleaner, or variations of it have appeared in several other films we have posted

This is a long film, but lots of great shots of appliances. As we have discussed before the Husqvarna washer and dryer are "badged" AEG products. I wonder what the older washing machine which appears earlier in the film was?

I was sure we had discussed this particular advert early on in the previous thread but I could not find it. Anyway, six years on she appears very different and the kitchen styling has changed to be very much of the 1970s where the earlier one is very clearly 1960s style. Anyway, it will do no harm to see it again :)

I think it must be a washer, its a bit tall for a spin dryer. And its right beside a wringer that they must have raided a museum to get LOLOL
Well spotted on those radiant rings, I had not noticed that at all. They look somewhat different to those we had in the UK, which were very common in the 1960s and 70s, ours were much more like US rings, or at least those used in GE appliances for example |

PLAST! Love the love of plastics in '67. Yeah, solid burners were the standard in Nordic kitchens. That double fridge-freezer is the suburban (and even often apartment) standard there. |

Here’s an add for a Skandiluxe washing machine, a top loader like we have seen more in the videos here. From the early 80’s so 40 years old.

Thanks, again, Louis. Always enjoy seeing the kitchens and appliances from the day. When I was in high school, I used to sit at the public library downtown paging through the home magazines from all over and was always excited to see the sleek European designs and modern rooms in comparison to the heavy, dark wood and colonial styles popular here. |

Almost the same commercial as in the previous video but this one doesn't show the dishwasher door that opens automatically, but it does show the under counter topload washer at the end of this commercial. I think they say that it spins at 600rpm. Makes sense considering the model is 600 too.
Asea Skandia was renamed a few times, we know it nowadays as Asko. |

Commercial for a house being built. I think this is a kind of catalogue house, but not sure. Great modern interior, very significant for that time. The kitchen is not very spectacular. Notice the two single beds in the master bedroom. More or less a standard back then and often still is.
Philips first vacuum cleaner with automatic cord rewinder. |

Found this Asea washing machine for sale on a Norwegian auction site. It hasn't been used in a long time hence the low price. Because it's far away I thought it was better to post it here with all the other Scandinavian material.
www.finn.no/bap/forsale/a... Here are some pictures of the Asea Scandia Elektra 800T. |

Two hundred kronor is practically free! OK, exaggerating a bit there. But still cheap. When I lived in Norway as a kid our washer broke and the LL bought a new Zanussi with a funky formica top. Front loader obviously. |

The EE machine is certainly a strange one. Compared to the UK manufactured version much of the machine has been reversed, note the controls and I don't recall ever seeing a power wringer with the drive post on the right hand side of the machine - the picture does not appear to be reversed as the English Electric wording appears correctly. The wringer appears different from the UK version but that is no surprise as it would have been sourced from Canada. I wonder why it was imported from Canada rather than the UK, it was even manufactured with European voltage components and a heater - very strange for a US or Canada manufacturer.
English Electric had a long association with Westinghouse rather than Whirlpool manufacturing FL automatics based on the Spacemates and later Westinghouse machines. Here is a video of the UK version lovingly restored by our friend Darren (Slowspin66) CLICK HERE TO GO TO vacbear58's LINK |

Funny seeing it reversed and the wringer mechanism is rounded not squared like ours, probably probably built under license by John Inglis & Co , Toronto. Great to see these washers around the world !!

Norway gets a lot, or used to, of weird appliance brands. We had an ITT fridge. Don't remember the other brands - fridge and stove. |
