Hi Guys. Hope all is well in appliance land. I am finally back! When we moved we had major problems with broadband so had to cancel it and go onto dial up. It was pants and expensive as it was pay as you go.Well finally we have now got broadband back and so I can now return as a member..yey! Ive...

Hi David I loved the very large square door on those Bendix machines.I have a thing about square doors....Luv em. The only annoying thing about the Bendix machines was part of the door catch. Instead of the usual spring it was a piece of metal against the catch which would flex when you pulled...

Hi Guys My mum got the model 7147 in 1981. Fantastic machine and I loved it! Unfortunately I played with it too much and broke it and it only lasted till 1985. Such a shame. Mark

Hey Aquarius/Nick I was in asda last night and of course had to spend a while in the detergent isle. I couldnt believe the bargain when I saw the offer and I got all excited!..lol But alas I wasent allowed to purchase it. Im having to make do with...wait for it.....Aldis!!!!! And some co op own...

Hi Neil Well I have in the past gone for expensive machines (Including Miele) but now I own a cheap Candy which was purchased to sell with the house. I am very happy with the results it gives and have been very impressed with it overall. There are many programmes and a few option buttons to. It...

Thats FANTASTIC Robert!!!! What a fab wash action. Its really great you can now film it.Am very impressed with the camera. A real treat indeed sir. Thank you very much! Mark

Hi Chris Nice machines. I have always liked the seperates though as the space for you to leen in and get the washing under the dryer never looks big enough for me.I know I would always be banging my head! But then again I have never actually seen one in the flesh so cant really comment. I...

Hi Chris People have asked me if im worried about the whirlpool top loader spinning at such low speed (430 I think on slow speed and 630 for fast) but because the tub is so large I think its equivelent to approx 700/800rpm and 1000/1100rpm of a normal size front loader.When I had my admiral top...

Just been informed (Thanks Jon) that the word I couldnt remember was Siphon and it should be put in the place of "Thingy". Mark

Oh what am I like.....Ive realised I did put front loaders...ahhhhhh...Im so sorry......I shall go and sit in the corner of the class and will only write again when It makes sense and I can read and take in what ive written before I post it!!! Mark

Sorry meant to say im meaning in front loaders with regards to the conditioner department. Ive made a bit of a mess with this thread...sorry guys Mark

Wanted to post the thread as I have never seen any comments re concentrate/regular and wanted to know what people thought. Mark

Hi people Just wanted to see opinions on this subject. I am just going to say that for use in old front loaders the concentrate seems the right choice because the conditioner department is small in the older machines that you can get the required amount of concentrate in it.The only problem...

Hi Its the same in the Uk with front loaders.The main drive motor may be quiet but the manufacturers tend to put in cheap noisy pumps. Mark

Hi Aquarius Thanks very much for your history.It was really interesting and I really enjoyed reading it.I really like to read what machines people have owned as it triggers memories and you sit there thinking...aaahhhh I remember that one! Women...well they are all alien to me but im glad you...

Im afraid im a believer in HOT washes if the fabric can stand it. I of course wash things at 40. Never washed at 30. Its 40/50/60/95 for me always. Bed things are 60 and whites are 60 and towels/dishcloths etc are 95. I think a hot wash is very hygenic and it stops the machine going gunky and...

Oh blimey how confusing it all is!!! I think I will stick to my favourite......Ariel bio powder/tabs and have Ariel Colour for my coloureds. With Comfort mainly and the occasional lenor thrown in! Plus I might stretch to buy some oxi powder to use once in a while...I dunno then again I like a...

Hi Funny you say that as I was thinking what a lovely art deco style that dryer is. Mark

Hey Nick My favourite comforts are Blue,Pink then Yellow.Ive never used the purple or white before. Ive never really been a fan of lenor but I did use to and still occasionally use the yellow one..summer breeze or something i think its called.The comfort creme ones ive never used because they...
