  Hi. I could certainly do with some parts but can't travel very far these days as I am very short of time. I am in Cornwall so most places tend to be too far. Maybe try putting it on Ebay or on the "We had One of Those" page on Facebook. There are plenty of people around who want them.

  This machine looks a lot safer than the wringer washers they were using in the States during that era. I have a wringer washer. It does a decent job at washing the clothes, but I am terrified of the wringers. I use the rinse/spin cycle on my automatic washer instead to get the clothes finished. I don't like to use the wringers because I have got my hair caught before in them. It was painful and a bit scary. Thank God the emergency release button worked and I didn't get scalped. That twin tub machine would be so much safer. I only use my wringer washer occasionally for the filthiest clothes and dog towels.

  Fellow American here. My own mother much preferred the wringer washer because it got the whites cleaner, and was faster (she'd worked out a system.)

  My Dad had one of these. In Australia they were brilliant if you lived on a farm with only tank or dam water and the built in heater was a great help. they use less water than automatics.

  Mine needs a new pump tyre as well. A new mounting screw for the agitator has arrived for mine and I'm waiting for a new 45mm seal for the heater. I've taken mine entirely to bits to diagnose any further worn parts to ensure mine's absolutely restored to proper working order. However in the process I broke the original joint which houses the safety switch, the brake mechanism is damn hard to get apart and something caught in there and broke the safety switch housing. Luckily I ordered a very rare lot of parts specifically for 3174's and so I didn't have to spend an eternity searching for a new part...

  My mum had a Hotpoint Supermatic twin tub, she got it when she got married in 1977, then sold in it 1985 when she got a Zanussi FL1012 (which lasted 20 years!). 1:50 is that a modern Zanussi machine in the background? Sounds just like mine when it's trying to spin an uneven load.

  My mum had a newer version of this machine and it fascinated me as a kid watching her do the laundry with it. The way the agitator whipped up the water in the tub with such ferocity yet without soaking everything in plain sight, always surprised me. Ours never used to 'fart' though 6:28 🤣

  What a lovely clear video! I have two of these side-by-side in my hallway with various extensions flung around the house, and have great fun answering and extending calls. Rather than them being directly connected to the BT Exchange, I have them going via a BT Pentara - I work from home, and enjoy the 'modern' facilities of the Pentara. I look forward to more of your videos. Thanks.

  Wow , this is a solid invention, it is efficient and robust, bought a plastic twin tub about a month ago, I thought the mortar wasn't agitating strong enough but I am keeping it coz it spins well but I am not impressed by the washer. I need something like this. Wonder where I can get one.

  His brother criticizing him regarding his retirement, reminds me of my sister. I'm retired now by choice, but she never lets me forget it. She constantly has something to say, and not positive, although she never had anything to say positive before I retired, come to think of it-so my retirement just gives her one more thing to add to her arsenal.

  I always love the rosy-eyed view people have on these machines. Yes they are very entertaining and relaxing to watch, but to use, they were HELL. Modern automatic machines are, well, automatic. Chuck the clothes in, add powder, press start, 2 hours later come back and its all done. 'Laundry day' is a 5 minute job. You can even chuck the washing in during the morning, go to work, and it will be ready to put in the tumbler or hang up when you get back. These things however were MANUAL. You had to physically be at the machine the whole time. 'Laundry day' WAS the biggest part of a day. To start with - get the machine out, run pipe from tap to wash tub feed, fill it with water, seperate the clothes, heat up water, add powder. Move the feed water pipe from the wash tub to the spinner. Run another pipe from the spinner drain to the wash tub feed. .Then you put the first load in, cycle it, move clothes from wash to spinner, turn on spinner, add the next load of washing to the wash tub, start wash tub, stop spinner, add rinse water, start spinner... when that is done, stop spinner, empty clothes, move 2nd load from wash tub to spinner, add 3rd load to wash tub.... and so on.... Once all your loads are washed, move the drain outlet from the wash tub feed to your sink and down the plughole, spin and rinse your final load as normal, move the drain input from the spinner to the wash tub, and drain the wash tub. In between all this, you would have a mop in hand, because you WILL need to mop - a lot. Also you are constantly putting your hands in 90 degree Celsius water with very strong caustic detergent, so your hands and arms are constantly getting thermally AND chemically burned. And if you forget one step of the piping merry-go-round, you wont get an error message, no, you will get the full liquid contents of the spinner - or even worse the wash tub, dumped straight onto your floor. The widespread adoption in automatics was a godsend, especially to families. In particular, in combination with other chore-busting machines that really took off in the 1980s like dishwashers, microwaves, tumble dryers, and freezers, it means household chores were no longer a full time job, so both partners could go out and get meaningful jobs - resulting in a boom in household incomes during the 1980s and 1990s, as well as allowing women (who did most of the laundry in those days) to take a fuller part in society as there were no longer full time chores to do.
