Being a FL has nothing to do with it failing...I have had an electrolux based FL here in Canada that has worked awesome for 10+ years...I just replaced it with a Miele, not because it doesn't work but because I bought a dryer(old one died) that was a miele and wanted the matching pair...*and* I...

Wow...

Interesting how the LCD display and the whole front panel in general is exactly the same as the 4840. The shipping struts are a bit different though...the 4840 has some plastic pieces as well

Isn't the Nexxt mostly plastic(outside shell)? I know the latest Korean units have a ton of plastic

I wish you could edit comments... "others" is far too general of a term...plenty of washers do a good job...

How will they clean...seriously...I asked this at the beginning. There is a reason there is an agitator in most top loaders. There are even agitators in fl's in a sense (not sure what the correct term is for those big ridges that stick out...). I seriously don't see these doing anything other...

If you want pretty...lots of pretty girls in the world...washing machines should actually do a good job of cleaning clothes...these will not

If it's true that they came up with those innovations, then they did hit some home runs...definitely there is nothing technical they did but the pedestal concept everyone seems to have copied. The colouring of appliances as well...when I am in Lowes or an appliance store, most people are talking...

TL'ers are not good at washing clothes in my opinion...just a bad design...they might last long but that is because the old ones are overly simplistic and were built like the tanks they were... Most NA and Korean FL's are made to last only a few years...has nothing to do with the design of a FL...

Whats that saying about putting lipstick on a pig...? Seriously..there are no agitators in those...how are the clothes getting tumbled around...seems a terrible design. Also, on the lower model, those buttons will last about 5 minutes...those are the cheapest to manufacture. You really cannot...

No problem...will do. I have to get a replacement clothes washer leg from them that I backed out too far and got the nut stuck in the rubber(tried everything to back the nut off the thread but it ain't moving!)... I think I'll just get a PR response but of course I will let you know.

Glad I'm not the only one who noticed this...if you look at the UK user manual, it's the same but you can tell our manual(US/CAN) was altered from this as the UK version is clear that the parameter that tells you the water hardness actually is what it reads...it makes no sense to have to put in...

Funny as Miele dishwashers are usually rated as their best product, behind their vacuums...sorry you had a bad experience with yours...perhaps something was wrong as I can count on 1 finger the amount of people who were not happy with their Miele dishwasher...

You'll also destroy a lot of fabrics at anything about 50...very quickly...your colour's must just pour out of the drain pipe at those temperatures...

Hi, Anyone know why with the USA version of this washer, you cannot have the water hardness set to "auto"? The instructions are quite obtuse as it's obvious the display parameter that shows the water hardness is meant for the "auto" setting (that does not exist with USA settings). To set the...
