The clock measures approximately 14.5 cm (5½ in.) at its widest point, with a height of around 12 cm (4¾ in.) and a depth of 7.5cm (3 in.). It's presented in mostly very good cosmetic condition - the chrome is nice and clean, the body is good aside from a small blemish on the left hand side (see photos), and there's a little bit of dust inside the face.

Measuring approximatley 8cm in height, this particular Woof is in good condition considering his age and undoubted use. His mechanism works, albeit a little slowly.

This particular example has a couple of things to note. The original key to the wind-up mechanism is provided but not attached. At some point in the washing machine's history it has been replaced, possibly because it no longer fitted snugly. Additionally, the lid to the washer - although present - is somewhat out of shape. It will sit in place, but it requires a bit of finesse due to this. It's nice to have it, though. Included is the hose (somewhat inflexible due to age) and attachment which affixes to the rear of the unit to stop the water draining out and rests on the side of the washer. The box is present too, but it has some pen "drawings" on it. We say "but", however, they add further charm when you look closely at what has been drawn. The box itself is in reasonable structural condition and the original labels are more or less there.

With mangler attached, the washer measures approximately 19cm (7½ in.) in height and the body of the washer is about 11.5 cm (4½ in.) square.

In good working condition with no chips or cracks to the plastics. The only minor flaws are the missing sticker on the tray upon which the coin is placed and discoloration of the robot's googly eyes, but otherwise it's in good shape with only minor cosmetic signs of age and use.

It's in good used and vintage condition with a few scratches as to be expected, and the mechanism has been cleaned and made good internally. Additionally, this one was missing its original ears so we have "manufactured" our own replacements which we think make a good fit. The originals seem to have been some kind of thin plastic, but these new ones are of a softer neoprene/felt material and are also a good match for his/her tail. He or she seems pretty happy with them anyway...

This Mako version is in great cosmetic condition. Some of the stickers are as yet unapplied to the aeroplane and most importantly all of the playing pieces (the weighted parachutes) are present and correct and there's no damage to the aeroplane - both common defects.  A couple of the stickers which have been applied are peeling away or are mislocated (perhaps that's why the rest didn't make it!), but that aside, it's in excellent shape.  The box is somewhat tatty and over-exuberant use of tape at some point has caused some issues, but given the completeness and condition of the contents, this is a minor drawback.

In working condition and with only some minor signs of wear and tear to the box and some minor tarnishing to the metalwork. Otherwise, it's in very good shape indeed.
