    VZUG Adora SLQ - impressions

    Yes, the 'Advance' feature is very handy indeed. The Wetclean programme uses the 'jet' system and very brief partial tumbles. More water is used than in the Miele handwash programme. In general, my impression is that the Adora is less of a water miser than Miele washers I've taken a gamble with...

    VZUG Adora SLQ - impressions

    Mike, strange - I've just checked on mine 1. if I select the Shirts programme, the Steam function is automatically selected (you can't de-select it; the light DOES NOT COME ON, strangely enough, but the Steam function is performed automatically after the final spin). It's actually the only...

    Mike, if I'm not mistaken, you can actually increase the spin up to 1200 rpm with the Steam feature added to the programme

    VZUG Adora SLQ - impressions

    Hi Mike thanks for your reply! Great pictures and excellent description. I got the VZug from Switzerland (I don't live too far from the Swiss border). The spin is really fantastic, even the one for easy-care garments... Have you tried all of the Textile programmes? I'm crap at ironing, but it...

    VZUG Adora SLQ - impressions

    Forgot to mention another thing the most 'intensive' wash rhythm appears to be 15/4 (Cottons programme). Maybe the 'jet' system compensates for this...

    VZUG Adora SLQ - impressions

    One quick post from a long-standing lurker... A bit of feedback about the VZug Adora SLQ, which I've owned since May 2009. Pros: - the Steam function (for de-wrinkling shirts, sheets etc) actually works! - flexibility: you can go for a 95° wash plus easy care function, add the steam...

    Toploaders?

    Mike, you've mentioned the new VZug. What is your feedback on it so far?

    Miele Softtronic - why one rinse less when C°>= 60 ?

    Could it be because 60C Cottons is the standard programme for AAA testing? Consumer magazines usually test the 40C Cottons programmes, and they normally give ratings for rinsing

    Energy efficient tumble dryers

    hi there Favorit, I bought the V-Zug Adora SLQ (not the dryer) in Switzerland, through an online shop.... Great washer indeed. I wonder whether it's sold a lot in the Uk. Are there any reviews of it?

    Energy efficient tumble dryers

    Mike, any reviews about the V-ZUG Adora SLQ? I got one in April and am very happy about it, but would like to know what others think about it....

    Miele question

    Favorit, I was actually wondering whether Miele had actually changed the water levels/programme sequences in the 2008 and 2009 models. Just compare the manuals of e.g. W 3240 and W 3922 -- different sequences and levels for Minimum iron, shirts, wollens, dark garments...

    Miele wash rhythms

    ' Is the video in the link below the washing action that you mean?' Yes, I was just wondering why in some manuals it is called 'normal' (and the same label is used with reference to Minimum Iron, Shirts and Outdoor garments), whereas in others it's called 'intensive' (and the Minimum Iron one...

    Miele wash rhythms

    'Do all these machines that you mentioned, have the same style of drum?' Both my WT2670 and the W4176 have the new honeycomb drum.

    Miele wash rhythms

    I have a Miele WT 2670 washer dryer - fantastic machine... I have a question about wash rhythms. According to the programme sequence information in my instruction book (and the ones for e.g. W1511/1512, W4144/4146) there are only four wash rhythms: Normal (for Cottons, Express, Minimum Iron...

    DW Auto programmes : do they always work ?

    The new German consumer magazine DW test rates the new Miele G1343 highest, whereas according to Which? the Activewater Bosch with Cutlery tray does not qualify as a Best Buy. If I'm not mistaken, the 'adjust sensor wash' function on Miele DWs raises the temperature to 55 degrees

    95° degree wash

    I am aware this issue has been raised several times in the past, but I'm still none too sure what kind of garments I should wash (if any at all) at 95 degrees. What about 75? I've got this option in my MIELE WT2670 washer dryer but I haven't used it so far andrea

    automatic programmes in dishwashers

    Do you think that the 'automatic' programme(s) in dishwashers actually work/are worth using? I have a G1832 Miele and am very pleased with it but if I am not mistaken the sensor wash programme seems to use up more electricity/water than the standard 55/intensive 65 programmes Andrea
