My mum has a 6kg Bosch and im convinced that its a bigger drum then my 6kg AEG, in hers you can definately fit in so much more washing, the same amount would be a tight squeeze in mine. A few years ago The Good Housekeeping institute did do tests on different machines and the claims of how big...

I buy either Persil bio or non bio or Ariel traditional powder depending on whats on offer. I do not believe in the myth that non bio's better for your skin but i do think non bio Persil still works great. From experiance powders are far better at stain removal then liquids or gels and i hate...

Formil Hi Hass, Formil Bio is a Which best buy and was a high scorer, apparently it doesnt fade colours too much in tests, it was also one of the cheapest per wash £6.45 for 60 washes. Ariel is also sold at Lidls i think a box of 50 washes is £7.80 or thereabouts. Richard

Wow like this a lot...if i bought it i dont think id want to use it so as to keep it brand new!! Would love to smell the old Persil and Arial Richard

Spin drain Does this machine do the wonderfull spin drain like the 1970's/80's Phillips machines did? or is it a completely different breed? Richard

I have in the past been attracted to the Vanishes, limescale tabs, softener along with whatever washing powder and liquid i use. I started to realise i had actually been a victim of marketing and had a very cluttered under sink cupboard! When all vanishes etc get used up i will only keep stock...

we had the model like it, was made in 1984, the buttons all in the same places, but the controls where not angled and had a chrome door. I loved it Richard

I saw that in the shops the other day- what an absolute gimmick!! Id be really interested in what Which say, though i dont think they have ever reviewed softeners before. I dont very oftern use softerners as it makes me itch.

Yeah liquid is not so good for whites as it contains no beaching agents and it's best left for coloured clothes, however continuous use of liquid at low temperatures will create a slight smell and bacteria build up. Will be ok if you regularly use higher temperatures. Rich

oh i just use bleach or in the past have on the maintainance wash if i dont have the washing machine cleaner i wont do it again

I Think i read somewhere that by using bleach in the machine can corrode bits in it. Your quite right Hass, have only just read up last week that the benefits of using calgon is pretty useless if your using the correct amount of detergent. Apparently modern detergents have stuff in it that...

Oh and i do the once Monthy Empty hot wash with washing machine cleaner, or if ive forgotten i put a bit of bleach in draw, (might be bad for machine actually) and do a 95 at night Richard

Yes i love to wash dishcloths microfibres that ive used areound the house and cleaned the car with at 95 However i have my rules. Usually its a reasonably small load so i press the time saver button so it does it in 99 mins rather then 145. By doing this it saves heating times so cost...
