I think I am actually allergic to Surf Detergents, as I wore one of my tops washed in yellow Surf Small and Mighty (Lemon and Mandarin) and my neck felt like it was on fire. Its pretty sad as the yellow surf smells quite pleasant The bad news is my mum bought some Surf Small and Mighty...

Zanussi - The Appliance of Science I love Zanussi washers, especially the Jetsystem Models from the 1980s I like the Old Dark Grey Machines (1985-1989) and Jetsystem1200 you can use that picture, I miss my Old Zanussi =[ it broke down after 9 years and I have a noisy rubbish Beko that is...

Easy A good Biological Detergent with Enzymes and Oxygen Bleach and 40-60*c temperatures Persil Bio powder or Daz is good - Powders not Liquids Find Non Bio works well also, Particularly Persil Non Biological as it has a higher level of oxygen bleach to compensate for the lack of enzyme Put...

Favourite Detergent Using a mixture of detergents Surf Small and Mighty Sunshine Lemons and Mandarin Flowers - Normal Soiled Washes, smells lovely and cleans well, (I only use half a cap and add a tablespoon of soda crystals in the wash) Daz Tablets - Heavy Soiled Whites/Teatowels (smells...

Asda Logic I briefly remember my mums friend used to use Asda Logic, this was in 1996/1997, she had a Zanussi Jetsystem FJ1093 washing machine, that she told me she bought in 1994, I remember her detergent of choice was ASDA Logic with Silk detergent, which smelt devine. I remember Sainsburys...

Towels - teatowels, white socks, white underwear, dishcloths - Cottons 60*c + Extra Rinse or if they are really mucky I will use Intensive & Stain 60*c wash + Extra Rinse (1 Daz tablet or 2 if they are very mucky) Sheets - Cottons 60*c + Quickwash (1 daz tablet) Whites - Cottons 40*c + Quick...

Miele What Happened to your Premier 500 before you got this New Miele? and why did you get rid of the Miele Premier 500? as a Miele is a Miele isn't it? shame about the ISE, was it a dud machine then? seems a bit of a waste for £899, at least you got your money back.

WOW I love these machines, Jons got one :) when was it made, i recon 1991/92?

I recon early 90s I recon 1990-1991 as the machine doesn't have the old ITCL codes but temperatures, which were new in the 90s, going away from the 1/95, 2/60 3/6 4/50 5/40 to 95* 60* etc

Paul Ariel stain remover is pointless. I agree its disgusting, why do we need it? Old formulas of Ariel were better - Ariel Automatic/Ariel Futur/Ariel Essential/Ariel with Quickwash action etc I bet Paul if you would have washed your socks in an older formulation of Ariel, i bet at 40*c...

Add on products I was just thinking why do Ariel need add on products if its meant to be the best washing powder? I much prefer Daz in terms of scent and cleaning as its cheaper too, but I agree with what your saying with Persil in terms of a one product only to clean everything. Apparently...

I use both I use both kinds, If you use detergent with oxygen bleach on dark colours, they will fade, if you use detergent without oxygen bleach on whites, they will go dingy and grey. Liquids dont have oxygen bleach which makes them good for darks, but I find they dont keep whites white...

Powders/Liquids Yes i have used liquids before, Its a common fact powders clean better, remove stains better and rinse better, I think liquids are only really good for colour protection as they dont have bleach in, but they are bad for washing machines as continued use of Liquids mixed with Low...

Own Brand Detergents I personally think they are just as good quality as leading brands, Ive been using Almat Bio/Colour Washing tablets from Aldi and Lidls Formil Biological Powder, and both are very good, they remove stains effectively, particularly stains on socks for example. even though i...

I recommend powder Powders tend to rinse out alot better than liquids, particularly persil and surf If you use a tablespoon per wash. I'm using Formil Biological (lidl) which is very good, as it rinses out really well. and you can adjust the dosage, I sometimes mix with soda crystals if i have...

Optima Nice Kitchen, I love the tiles, really nice colours, love the units as well Have you noticed that Daz Powder has shrunk from 42 washes to 38 washes?

Persil Non Bio its just another detergent I use if I get bored, I use that for whites/towels too occasionally

Yes, the Daz tablets are great. I'm proud to have sparkling whites when I put them on the line, they look so great compared to everyone elses yellow dingy whites which are all washed together with darks on a cold wash. Ive started to dry dark washing on the clothes horse inside now the weather...

Hey Owin Welcome to the site :) I love Ariston Washers too, especially the Ariston Dialogic from 1998/1999 heres a link here which will divert you to a thread with loads of Ariston washing machines on it Kyle http://www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?35229
