5 out of 5 It seems to score highly on customer satisfaction anyway. Getting 5 out of 5 stars consistently is pretty good.

Zanny Yes these are the Chinese made Zannys arn't they. There was a previous version of these Amicas that were almost identical to the Zannussi made in China. I think they must have been producing these whilst the Samsung deal was going through. I've seen one of these Zanussis in action in...

Time saver No, there is no time saver button. It would be pointless having one because the wash times are short and there is the quick wash program if you want a short program.

synthetics sorry i meant 57 mins for synthetics. quick wash varies from 19 mins to 26 depending on temp setting you choose

wash time Cottons wash is 1 hour 23 mins synthetics is 59 mins

spin Hi Mike, i'd say it's about the same noise level as the Beko was but a slightly higher pitch noise. The motor sounds different possibly sounding like a Bosch machine.

Amica Yes it's good to have a split tub rather than the sealed tubs we keep seeing which writes a machine off if you have a bearing failure or something stuck in it that you can't get at through the heater or sump holes. No, this machine is not replacing the Servis, it's purely a test machine...

Video link Here's the link to the video

First wash Managed to get a video of the start of the wash but had to give up after that because there are so mnay people coming in and out today they are ruining my filming. The machine does the first 20 mins of the cottons cycle in cold water and then heats up. Just like my old Miele did...

Another pic PCB shown at front

Pics Ok i've had a look inside and it has a split tub design which is good so at least you can get in it if you need to. The PCB is mounted at the top front. All looks nicely laid out

Poland Ronhic, as discussed in another thread recently Amica machines from this new range are made by Samsung in Poland who bought the Amica washing machine plant there not long ago. These are the first new design Samsung built Amicas on sale. 6Kg and 7KG 1200 and 1400 spins are available and I...

control knob Here's the control knob with program choices

Well I finally took delivery today of the Amica AWM612D. I've not had time to bring it in yet to test it but i've got some observations so far. Firstly it comes well boxed. Not in a shrink wrap polystyrene outer that falls apart like many machines but a proper box with strapping so you can carry...

Telefunken I think Vestel have been busy buying brands what with the Servis brand as well they are obviously pushing themselves into new markets with either established brands and older quaility brand names that people will remember. I remember Telefunken TV's in the UK when I was a kid.

Bendix Someone get this Bendix! Although is it a dryer? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bendix-washing-machine-/150666496636?pt=UK_Home_Garden_Washing_Machines_Dryers_Parts_Accessories_ET&hash=item23146c4a7c

Vestel It will be interesting to see what Vestel decide to do in the UK. will they start with something el cheapo or come in with something more stylish. Given the range and styles of machines they produce they have lots of options. That black Vestel looks very smart indeed. Here's a white one!

It seems that Servis is to return to the UK in 2012 under the Turkish manufactuer Vestel. They have aquired Servis and Electra plus other brand names from antonio Merloni. Article link attached Steve...

Jet Yes it is indeed. Its quite hard to get the jet hose clipped back in place in the door gasket because there isn't alot of room for pliers to work with the clip.
