- Well I couldn't resist making a video of this little beauty!
This little plastic washing machine can wash, spin and rinse about 4kg of laundry in one go!
It's actually surprisingly good at what it does, the agitator is very effective.
In this vid we do some of my whites and then the big test - a load of rags and cloths that I use in my workshop for cleaning appliances. Look at the state of that water! It got an incredibly good clean before being put away :)
A special guest appearance by OMO laundry detergent which came all the way from Brazil. It smells really nice.
Hope you enjoy :-D
You’re entire channel is literally my guilty pleasure. It’s 1:30AM and I should be sleeping. But instead I’m watching videos of domestic appliances. One very happy Welshman, thank you! X
From one naturalised Welshman to a proper Welshman - you're very welcome and I'm glad you're enjoying my silly nonsense :-D x
I wouldn’t call it silly nonsense... I was watching until 3AM! :) x
@@TheVintageApplianceEmporium Can you buy a washing machine in Europe?
I'm the same

I used to love doing this type of laundry when I was a teen. Twin tub washing machine and then peg the clothes out in the spring sunshine.
I enjoy it sometimes, really need to be in the mood for it :)
Nn
That things mesmerising. Zoned out a few times there. Love the gentle clunk clunk of the filters in the tub

I washed my clothes in a few minutes because of this video. I bought my machine today at some company here in Uganda-Kampala. Its so simple...hahaha I love it, it's only a small machine 7kg but I did well
Which company I also want to buy a machine this weekend..
Great job loved this one , I remember those rubber hoses you had to put on the tap and hope they never blew off 👍👍
OMO was a big seller here in the 60s the naughty housewives favourite. Stick a box of this in the window for the milk and postman to see . It meant Old Man Out
I have a made a note and will be trying that trick with my little box of OMO ;)

Its adviced when you want to rinse your clothes just drain the washing tub after washing then put your clothes once again but this time without any washing powder or detergent, fill it with water. Then rinse according on how you prefer. Then you can put your clothes in drying just to dry them 👍🏾
Does anybody know how many maximum litres of water i can use in the washing tub side pls?
Once again, ti's overloaded. You can hear the motor praying for mercy. And surely so do the garments!
Thanks for the helpful tips❤️

Do you remember where you go the hose or where I could get one like that
It's a vintage hose from a 1980 Servis Twin Tub. I don't think you can buy them now
How much water did you use? Can we almost fill it up?
spiner ka pani kesy nikly ga or kaha jai ga. drayer ka
I'm a little frightened at the amount of socks. Either he does laundry seldom, or changes socks 4 times a day
Is it possible to use the washer and spinner at the same time?
Yes I think so
Hi
Do you have the manual please? I need to contact the company as I need a spare hose urgently . Also it won't spin anymore
I never had the manual and the machine has since been sold
@@TheVintageApplianceEmporium thank you so much for your reply
It's probably just needing a new belt on the motor- you can easily do it yourself.

@@Truth1561 Hi
Thank you sooooooo much for your reply. Yeah i noticed that the belt was loose. Is it supposed to be loose or does that mean it got damaged?
the spin dryer is dangerous as it doesn't stop as soon as the lid is lifted, a safety feature brought in during the 1960s if I remember right
Yes it does, he took off his first lid it looks like, and if it was on there, it would mean that if you lifted that first lid up the spinner brake would stop the basket.
Is there a pump that drains the water?
yes
Just letting you know though not all of these twins have a drain pump...
And still others do have a drain pump but its for gravity drain assist..
I too have a twin tub with a drain pump... but mine is still gravity drain with pump assist..
I tried pumping it up to my sink it sort of works but air gets trapped in the drain hose and it becomes air bound..
The pump on mine i guess is just not strong enough to pump uphill.
I kept having to switch the machine off and you would hear blub blub blub then swith it back on to drain and it would drain a little more then stop draining and get air bound again..
The one i have actually said in the description gravity drain with pump..
I ended up moving it to what used to be a bathroom in my house.. i still had a drain pipe where the sink used to be.. so i ended up having to build a base for the twin tub and lift it up..
I then connected it to the drain which is now lower than the machine..
And now it
Works perfectly..
Also
The wash tub on mine won't drain even if the hose is on the ground unless you put it on drain..
The spinner part will drain even if the machine is unplugged..
But the wash tub will hold water and for it to drain you must put the machine on it's drain setting.
Does it warm up the water?
No, you need to add the hot water yourself
GOSTEI DESTA MAQUINA DE LAVAR! PENA QUE DO BRASIL SÓ TEM O SABÃO OMO ( TUDO EM PORTUGUÊS) ONDE SE COMPRA ESTA MÁQUINA E QUANTO CUSTA?
Hello to Brazil! I was meant to be there right now but due to LATAM Airlines (never book with them) I'm not :(
I honestly don't know where you would purchase a twin tub in Brazil. In all the time I've been there I have never seen one for sale
Porque no usas el entrada de agua de arriba
Either that washing machine is on a bace of some kind or the sink units are rather low down. All the other videos of these "'modern twin tubs " are tiny looking. This looks almost identical to a full size hoover twin tub!
this is great...where can I purchase that gray hose to connect from the zink to the washer?
You can buy one similar off of Amazon. You can buy a similar washer there too.
@@39Bosski would you have a link or a brand name, maybe what's it's called?? I'm looking for a hose too;)
He’s going to tear this machine up! Clearly you shouldn’t put in items that hits the agitator that hard! And he’s putting in too many items in the spin dry! Poor machine...
Bună ziua când cost
I can't figure out why all these videos show people putting clothes away without a water rinse. You just drained the soap water from those socks and called it a day.
He is adding fresh clean water to the spin cycle. That way it rinses and spins at the same time 😊
I thought the same... 🤔
@@blessedbeford6130 yes he did the first time, but not the second time when the items and the water were even more dirty. Thought that was a bit gross 😅
Y’all could order one of these in amazon I was like bruh does this exist and this video came up and I am like BRUH no I mean BRUH i didn’t know this exist
In Kenya it's around $220 depends with the size but def not more than 250
@@jemandjemand2362 that's cheap.but we mostly do hand washing.machines aren't common but as time goes by I think it will get cheap.I still prefer the twin tub
@@jemandjemand2362 for us brands determine the cost most times n yeap generally electronics/machines are expensive
Bruh.
Amazing
I have little children who plays in mad and when they drink porridge they poure them in clothes should i rise fast the mad and the porridge then put in machine or i just put with them
Good washer shame about both hose being too short and flimsy
Boa noite não falo inglês 😰onde posso comprar este tanquinho moro em São Paulo
Olá eu tenho um idêntico..só a marca é diferente..o meu é o twin tub/ Praxis..comprei pelo site da magazine luiza..ele é ótimo...tem mais de um ano que tenho ele
Where to buy?
Ebay is a good place to look
I bought my de ❤
The brake is not working.
Love your tongues for getting the clothes out of the water pity you couldn't get a pair of the wooden washer tongues
Thanks, yes I'd love a pair of good old fashioned wooden tongs! I don't use the twin tubs much though if I'm honest

Wah..oh!!!
That is way too much clothes there buddy..
The motor is bogging down just a tad..
It's struggling...
You're going to fry the motor if you keep that up..
You got like 10 towels AND your regular laundry in there..
These machines are not meant for that..
The clothes you're wearing.. and... that's... pretty much it..
They're made for small small loads...
how much
Too much faffing about but suppose it's better than washing by hand or paying launderette fees if no automatic washing machine also on the plus side these will probably be alot cheaper to run
I have an LG Twin Tub I made a video of me unboxing it
In the Caribbean we do a better job rinsing the clothes after spin drying we have a tub to rinse the clothes love those washers on my third one the problem wish is the best
Don’t be rude

Nasty, didn’t rinse your clothes
LMAO! I rinsed them in my front loading washing machine XD
Such a plastic washing machine is completely useless, it is of no use, it cannot clean any kind of clothes, it only consumes a small amount of water.😂😂😂
You say this despite the fact that you've just watched a video where the machine actually washed a whole load of filthy rags?? OK...
