WQ1000 I noticed in the manual shared above that most cycles on the W2 models default to 3 rinses rather than 2, even for wool, delicates, and shirts. I assume it uses much lower water levels to maintain the load's contact with the drum. They've also removed the 'water plus' option (extra...

Hi All, I’ve recently got the Haier X11 dryer too. It’s an interesting design. I believe the high running temperatures are intentional. A lot of the marketing talks about the machine’s true reverse drying reducing creases… which it does… but I think they’ve attempted to replicate almost an...

Hi All, It's been a while since my last post... I hope everyone is well. Occasionally, I look at the Red Dot Design and IF Design sites, as sometimes there are details of ranges that have been sent off for consideration before their release. Incidentally, today I came across a 2024 Electrolux...

Awesome to see Miele not just pushing basic software updates to but introducing new functions too. Sorry for kidnapping the thread... I've owned a Miele TCJ680WP Heat Pump dryer since 2018 and not had a single software update. When ever I have checked the app it just says it's up to date...

Some of the lower end models are already starting to appear online... They look pretty interesting and have a bunch of new programmes too! https://www.samsung.com/uk/washing-machines/washer-ww90t634d

New Samsung Range "Adding to Samsung’s reliable performance is Smart Control +, which learns users’ behavioral patterns to recommend cycles and offer a personalised laundry experience. With this technology, the new Samsung washing machines familiarise themselves with user preferences to suggest...

LG WashTower launching in the US in September then the rest of the world by the end of the year https://newsbeezer.com/romaniaeng/ifa-2020-lg-introduces-washtower-washing-machine-in-combination-with-a-dryer-in-one-device/

Hi Everyone, Hope you're all good! It's that time of year again, so thought I'd start off a thread to capture any news. Particularly as the on-site event is reduced this year, I'd imagine there will be a lot more online content. I've started to see stuff trickle through so I'll add it...

Yeah will be interesting to see how various brands change things up to accommodate this.   If IFA doesn't go ahead, hopefully we'll still get some press releases or YouTube vids from the brands in September.   Mat, can I ask how you know the new Bosch stuff is coming? Thats not a challenge...

They seem to be aware of some of the faults with the previous legislation, i.e. removing all the messy symbols from the display panel, applying a limit to the maximum duration of the eco cycle (which looks like its going to affect most manufacturers) and also asking them to declare the actual...

Thanks Henrik. Yeah I thought that too until I saw models in Europe with it as well! I could have just searched this before I posted on here, but turns out, yes, the EU has changed the guidelines completely as of Oct 2019!! I’ve linked the document you can download in multiple languages...

Hey Guys Hope you're all staying safe and well. I've noticed a couple of new washers (like released in the last month or so) which don't contain a Cotton Eco cycle, an Eco option or a 40 E / 60 E option as part of the temperature section. Also none of those triangle symbols everywhere on the...

The UK site has this image regarding the variable speed recirc pump... Quite interesting!

Thanks for opening the tread Henrik! :) I enjoy reading all the updates which come through this time of year. I've attached a link to the user manual of one of the new Bosch models... although not an awful lot of data in there. What I thought was interesting was when I translated the press...

They've appeared in the UK now too... Also sounds like they've added fabric sensing to Mixed Fabrics, Easy Care and Cotton cycles called aiDD or Intello DD. https://ao.com/product/f4v910wts-lg-vivace-washing-machine-white-68174-1.aspx
