Bosch dischwasher Which year is this dishwasher manufactured?I've noticed that there are two 55 ºC cycles.What's their difference?Is the second one is an eco programme?Or a special gentle cycle for glassware?

Here in Greece,I think that Skip(equivalent to Persil bio) cleans slightly better than Ariel,when it comes to stubborn stains such as tomato sauce or chocolate,and it also has a stronger aroma and I like it.I've also realized that Ariel makes clothes a little rough,something that doesn't happen...

It's a completely different detergent with just the same name.Apparently a small company picked up the brand name since it was no longer used by Unilever,so it isn't a registered trademark anymore.They chose that name in order to gain some of the old Radion's reputation.

And to stick with thread subject,you could pin some dryer sheets at the front side of a blowing fan or attach a couple of them on your air conditioner's filters.So, you can turn your dryer sheets to air-freshner. Check out some more alternative uses of dryer sheets...

Dosia detergent Another discontinued product in greece is Dosia.It was a range of low-priced laundry products(powders,liquids,tablets,fabric conditioners) manufactured by Reckitt Benckiser with a pig-coin bank as a mascot.They dissappeared from greek shelves before 7-8 years,however they...

Spin speeds on greek machines Hi hoovermatic.In fact,machines in greece come with variable spin speeds.Cheaper models (€ 150-200) tend to have less powerful motors,therefore slower spin speeds (up to 500-600 rpm).As price goes up,you can find more fast-spinning models that have stronger and...

British Surf is equivalent to our Omo,which is a secondary brand focusing on scent.Bold is a scent-oriented brand too.Those brands have focused more on leaving fresh scent on garments and removing tough odors rather than fighting difficult stains,therefore their enzyme formula is much simpler.

There are parts of the world where non-bio just doesn't Here in Greece,almost all detergents in either powder,liquid or capsules form,contain enzymes.Cheaper brands contain only 1 enzyme,while most primary brands contain more complicated enzyme coctails.The only non-bio detergents are some...

So most people still stick to using powders,they are not affected by the massive promotion for liquid and capsules by the companies.I'm surprised that Persil non-bio powder has a greater market share than persil bio.Do most people in the UK have sensitive skin?

Persil power in greece As I was watching a bunch ov vintage greek tv ads from the '90s,I've encountered a 1994 commercial for Skip power detergent,which seems to be exactly the same with UK's Persil power.However,it didn't become such a fuss about it here.Maybe after the issues with persil...

I think that all automatic dishwasher have chlorine-based bleach.Powders and tablets have oxygen bleach instead of chlorine bleach.

Ariel bio powder retro scent I also loved the scent of Ariel powder,both regular and alpine,in the late '90s-early '00s.It was a bit overpowering,but it was wonderful.Now there is a much more toned down scent. Skip also used to have a different scent in those times.It was a bit soapier and not...

Did you use and fabric conditioner,or the Bold did itself all the softening job?

Plate warmer I've taken a look on this catalog,and I saw that most dishwashers have a "plate warmer" cycle.Are American people using their dishwashers to warm plates?European dishwashers doesn't have such a cycle.What does it do?Does it shower plates with hot water,like a hot rinse, or it is...

New Bosch models are pretty good,with many features and great energy saving.I think that it doesn't worth to swap it with an older model only because it is miele.

No oxygen bleach,no brighteners,no enzymes....So,special detergents for black clothes are plain soap?Fortunately,they aren't popular at all here in Greece.The only one I thing we currently have is Persil absolute black. I also remember Skip black velvet,but I haven't seen it in the last 3-4...
