Vintage 1950s Bendix Automatic Home Ironer
Rotary Iron / Mangle – Rare Complete Unit – LOCAL PICKUP (Louisville, KY)
This is a wonderful vintage Bendix Automatic Home Ironer, manufactured in the early–mid 1950s by the Bendix Home Laundry Institute. These machines were designed to quickly press linens, sheets, tablecloths, and clothing using a heated rotary drum and pressure shoe.
This unit includes:

Condition:
The ironer appears intact with all major components present. Shows typical vintage wear, scuffs, and dust from storage. I have not tested it, so it is being sold as-is, untested. The manual and extras are in good vintage condition and add to its collector value.
Measurements: (approx.)
• Width: 36–40”
