Overly scented products are in reality often covering up that things are not clean. Like strong scented detergent that covers up the smell of mold in a washing machine.

My point exactly Henrik, half measures for a whites cycle. Always found Samsung’s programmes awkward. I was never tempted to consider Samsung for household appliances.

Never had a problem with rust in a microwave. I would never buy a microwave with only one power level. 1000 Watts is great for heating up liquids but not for reheating food. Around 600 Watts is the max. for that purpose. It’s better to reheat slower, the food stays more intact and doesn’t taste...

Such a wonderful restoration John! And thank you Ben for sharing the pictures, videos and background information. Fascinating read!

Rule is that there should be room for a clenched fist on top of the load. I bet that wasn’t the case with that comforter.

Are there more versions of Miele detergent? The Miele detergent sold in the NL contains more than 30% zeolites.

I can hardly believe that someone here says a lower water level is better! 😊 Happy washing Eugene!

Here’s a video of a refurbished one, so you can see how it should work.

Mark, I add the Sun powder to the main wash. I think it’s useless in the prerinse that is done with cold water.

I’m using Finish Ultimate Plus but I add a small amount of Sun powder. Excellent results! I was never happy with just one tab per load. Just like with laundry I prefer to adjust the dosage to the load. That small amount of powder makes sure everything is spic and span including the dishwasher...

It’s nitpicking.

That’s a great find Mark! An iconic set in an immaculate state. I would have wanted the 6500 over the 5500 too!

It looks like it’s an international website, probably neglected. There are hardly any combo’s left on the French market, it’s amazing how fast that went.only six frontloaders left at E.Leclerc. And topload dryers are totally gone...

Is this a Zanussi in disguise?

It looks like Brandt stopped selling topload combo’s and topload dryers. See here for their actual lineup. https://www.brandt.fr/

We had a few threads about them. Here’s one. https://www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?37934 An acquaintance of mine had a matching Euro topload set made by Brandt. He bought it around 2008 IIRC.

AEG Lavamat 2005 Turbo That’s correct. It was built by Lepper. How’s your German? https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/August_Lepper

Run, don’t walk! Mediocre dishwasher and that price is way too high. In general they use too much water and energy on the normal programmes and the eco one doesn’t clean well. Oddest point the Dutch consumer organisation (Consumentenbond) found is that even silent rated machines are still rather...

This is not a classic AGA, more like a regular stove. It's not on all the time.
