    What Really is HALF or DINKY Load for a washer? Philosophy

    The higher possible spin of the LG would make your dryer have an easier time. Aside from trying to get you to buy a new dryer there was never a reason for you to get a new dryer.

    What year did Sears lose the "Lady" from Kenmore ???

    I know that Kenmore Elite washers were just appearing in 1999. So my guess would be 1997-98. And I would be wrong. As areuoneto a user here claimed to have one of the last Lady Kenmore washers made in 1984. Another user claimed that there was even a 1993 Sears catalog "with Ladies...

    Pump does not kick in!

    Yes very hopeful although I was hoping there was a treasure trove of diagrams just waiting to be found. ;-) Thank you though. I printed, scanned, photoshoped and faxed (she doesn`t have email) her the diagrams. She is using her stat holiday tomorrow to finally get her old machine working...

    Detergent thread 2011

    Looks like an interesting find. Simple ingredients too... Sodium sulfate Sodium Alkyl Aryl Sulfonate Sodium Silicate Perfume Pigment Probably great for a top loader.

    Pump does not kick in!

    @whirlpolf Wow that was awesome. I've been trying to explain this to my aunt for a dogs age. Did you do those diagrams yourself or is there some source for them on the web?

    DOE PRESS RELEASE - Washer Capacity Claims

    So basically the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers (AHAM) is now circling the wagons to head off the specter of government regulation. Since the first press release Whirlpool and Samsung joined the party too. Hopefully NA will eventually have a report card rating system like the EU and...

    What Really is Full Load for a washer? Philosophy

    "I MAY consider washing all that together, but I wouldn't even think of drying all that together. Everything would dry unevenly." Yup in a traditional air dryer that would likely be the case. With a good condenser dryer (popular in Europe) it seems to work fine on Mixed Fabrics. Many in EU...

    CALLING DR. LAUNDRESS!

    As per the W1930 manual on page 12 do not use chlorine bleach!   You should be able to use a hot cotton wash and Persil or some other product with Bleach Alternative and get them clean with little or no pretreatment. I'm sure Laundress will have some better advice.

    What Really is Full Load for a washer? Philosophy

    3beltwesty Most LG washers are marketed as having greater than 10Kg dry linen capacity. Even my small 2.7 IEC cubic feet washer can handle a load of 10kg. Not sure what you were trying to prove. ;-)

    WASHCRAFT Z1959T NOT HEATING

    Hmm not familiar with that specific model but I remember some Zanussi washers that exhibited similar behavior. One time it was the temperature sensor had deteriorated and the other the sensor was wiring had become detached.

    Why a Miele?

    @launderess it's a shame that Miele was late to the "dryer plug" converter adapter party and required a 220v plug installed. Supposedly now such a beast runs about $200. Probably would have been worth tens of millions in market share. As for display units, you are still right although...

    Why a Miele?

    Gosh Gabriele why did you have to use the Hoover Dynamic 8+ Top as an example? The detractors will have a field day what with Ballerinas, clown car capacity etc, and tutu washloads. Well just look... <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="" frameborder="0"...

    Miele W1918 Bearings

    After looking for similar problems with the W1918 I came across this thread on gardenweb. Sounds similar to your problem. http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/laundry/msg1101404215712.html

    Why a Miele?

    @jerrod6 I.E.C. cubic feet equivalence came out late 2000 or early 2001 iirc.

    Why a Miele?

    @3beltwesty "Two us machines with the exact same spin baskets can have different legal capacities; since one has a better wash cycle, better software, better design, mixes articles better." Wasn't IEC equivalent cubic feet just what a similar conventional Top Load washer would have used in...

    Why a Miele?

    So because the greenback is low $1620 would be a good start for a top of the line Miele in the US. Of course they have to ship em and have a markup for the dealer etc. I can't wait for the Maytag Maxima's to come out in April. Will be interesting to see the prices and build quality compared to a...

    Anyone else having site issues?

    What to do about the eulstx.swbell.net. Ask users to call their ISP on the phone and email their tracert info. Not much you can do. The best hosting has tons of different peering arrangements (think of it as many paths to get to the same place). Theplanet is a managed dedicated hosting provider...

    Why a Miele?

    You can compare commercial hard and softmounts to a Miele. Having looked at the commercial quality machines and almost ended up buying a Continental EH030. Forget the ugly factor because some commercial equipment is pretty good looking. Forget the softmount vs hardmount and weight issues (the...
