The Indesit I had before the Frigidaire, still going strong back in the old share house I used to live in (before i met my fiancee :-) )

The U.S Frigidaire I had for a short while. I sold this to a friend because the people I was living with hated it. No idea when this was built. Link to some video as well :-)

I love the Hoover Electra's control dial, set out the same as their top loaders at the time :-)

My Hoover Electra 540. Built around 1993.

My Hoover Zodiac 490. Built around 1990? im not sure. Also the link to when I found it and the Videos http://www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?38640

My Electrolux EWF1481 Time Manager. Built around 2011. Also matching Electrolux Sensor Dry reversing dryer, also built around 2011.

Heres my Miele Novotronic W918 I don't know about build dates or anything. I first used this machine in February 2013.

yeah i thought about that chris, it would put our OHS in jeopardy if anyone discovered it. I wont try, i don't really have time to stand around watching it wash anyway at work. Matt

I was hoping for the manual timer model because of extra rinse option and the option for a warm rinse etc... I have to try and disable the lid switch, no idea how to and have to be kinda quick with it lol Anyone any ideas?

And just as a reference, its predecessor, the 9.5KG Simpson EziSensor. Repaired 6 times in two years, definately not built for the needs of 6 high care disabled people. Hopefully the Speed Queen will see us through the next decade trouble free!

This is the interior, much the same as other S/Queens but notice the indent for the fill flume on the left. ALso this machine doesnt skimp on water on the Regular cycle either, fills right up to just touching the bottom of the fabric softener cup (ooo matron!) when on Extra Large. I heard other...

Hey Well after having constant problems with the Simpson machines that my company put in all of its care homes, the management rang us the other day to inform us that the company was putting more money into appliances for their homes and we were to expect a new washing machine from 'Clean...

Thanks Guys I love it. I have the Regular drum, this was a series or two before Honeycomb I believe. I have the Rapid wash set up with three deep rinses. There is only a very brief pulse spin for the interim spin but then you have a full length final spin which helps things come out well...

In summary its a great machine I love the selection you have in temperatures and programs and options. The 1600 spin is the fastest spin on an automatic I have owned so all very exciting. The deep rinses are brilliant too, everything comes out so fresh! I hope it lives for many years to come...

Selecting Rapid Wash you get the cycle taken down to between 32 and 50 mins depending on temperature. Still gives a thorough wash and deep rinses. As with new Miele machines there are additional options available by quickly pushing the Power and Water Plus buttons 4 times in quick motion and...

The sellers were a wonderful elderly German couple who were very quick to tell me this machine cost over $3000 when new so I should be sure to take good care of it. They said they only had ran it at Delicate 30 for many years now so hadn't been too abused. The control dial has been...

Hey Guys Well for a while now since moving house, I have had one available spot in my garage that I could hook up one more washing machine easily to water and the drain. The question has been for a long time, which machine shall it be? I know I wanted something a bit older, automatic, I was...

Hey Guys I used to have the Hitachi version of this washer :-) It was a great machine with the full 360 degree arc agitation. Did have a tendancy to tangle a bit though, especially long sleeved shirts and bed sheets. Overall though very fun to use. I have put the video in below that i made to...

Hey Dave I have the Koh I Noor spin dryer that i got off a great website early last year. I have never known spin dryers to be sold in Australia post twin tub days but this website decided to market them as Eco Spin Dryers as they save so much time in the clothes dryer thus saving energy and...

Hey kids Just stumbled across this cool video of an Electrolux EcoLogic top loader that has a solid tub and throws it water over the top like a vintage machine. Very cool. I guess the EcoLogic factor maybe because it doesn't fill the outer tub just the inner tub so you save that proportion...
