Centipedes Hi David, Thankfully we don’t get ones that large here in Northern Ireland but the ones we do get bite and I just hate them, they are the only insect that truly makes my skin crawl. I hope the Terminex Service gets things sorted for you. All the best. Hugh

Very Complex Construction Hi The7, Yes the Dyson is a very advanced machine and I agree that you would think that the contra rotation would damage the laundry however it does not. Dyson thoroughly tested the contra rotator and designed it to last a minimum of 20 years, during testing thousands...

No Untangling Required Hi Mark, The Dyson does not tangle at all not a single item large or small ever tangles. The Dyson is also very gentle on the laundry it’s wool program is approved by Woolmark and uses the contra rotation to gently clean pure wool garments; the Hand Wash program also...

Your Welcome Hi Steve, You are very welcome, I am so pleased you fuond my machines interesting. Give me an American washer any day, I just can't stand the tiny drums and pathetic capacity of the vast majority of UK washers. Peace and happy high capacity American washing. All the best. Hugh

Your Welcome Hi Steve & Shanon, You are most welcome. I am so glad this great site gives me the oppertunity to share. I am delighted that everyone enjoyed the videos, the Dyson is a truly superb washer it's such a shame it is out of production worldwide. All the best. Hugh

Welcome Darren Hi Darren, Welcome to Applianceville you will have great fun here. All the best. Hugh

Contra Rotation Hi Louis & Chris, Yes the Dyson only contra rotates during the beginning and the end of the wash cycle, at all other times the drums lock together and rotate as one. All the best. Hugh

A Big Thank You Hi Allen, A big thank you once more for hosting the video download. I really appreciate your help in making the file available to everyone. All the best. Hugh

Hi Hoovermatic, The Dyson does not tangle at all and is very gentle on the laundry. It does not matter if you are washing large items or small or a mixture of diferent sized articles nothing tangles. All the best. Hugh.

Hi Shanon, yes it's my Dyson CR01 Memory. I will organise another video, I tried the other day but I forgot that the washer was on and I missed the contra rotation part of the wash cycle. All the best. Hugh.

More Videos Hi Chris, Yes I will do another one this time I will do a heavy load of towels on the 85ºC Cottons Cycle. 85 degrees Celsius = 185 degrees Fahrenheit. I have just done a full load of towels in my Whirlpool Top Loader so it might be a couple of days. All the best. Hugh.

A Big Thank You Hi Allen, Thank you so much for hosting the file and for creating the hosting page. It is very much appreciated. All the best. Hugh

Hi Michael, I would suggest you use a liquid detergent (Liquid detergents are much better at emulsifying oils and fats) and also use a warm pre wash cycle followed by a main wash at the recommended temperature for the fabric. Make sure the odour and oil stains have been removed before tumble...

Hi David and Denis, Thanks for sharing you have a beautiful home and what a simply perfect location. I love Kitty Boy he is very like my cat Tiger, I just adore cats. Wow that’s what you call a Front Loader not like the tiny toys we get here in the UK. All the best. Hugh

Reverse Tumble Hi Steve, It does reverse but the problem with the Hotpoint is that it tumbles more in one direction than the other. This seems be due to the design of the fans used in its air cooled condenser drying system, the fans are highly efficient in one direction but not so good when...

Hi Lee, Welcome to Applianceville. You will find this a great site with warm friendly people. Peace and happy washing. Hugh

How did it go? Hi David, So how did you get on with the bearing replacment? I hope it went smoothly for you I know some machines can be real pigs when it comes to extracting the old bearings. In fact a lot of the cheaper UK models only last a couple of years at most and are way to expensive to...

Maytag Neptune TL Washer Hi Rex, Sorry for my late reply, the next time I pull the Dyson out to clean behind it I will take the back off and get an inside shot although you wont be able to see the transmission as it is behind the drum pulley but you will see the belt and twin motor setup. The...

Hotpoint Dryer Hi Steve, No there is only that one sensor in the Hotpoint although you would think there would be more, it does reverse tumble but because it is a condenser dryer it tumbles more one way than the other and this causes the balling problem. I would not recommend this dryer to...

Speed or cleaning Hi David, I mean cycle times, both machines clean superbly. I have no problems with stain removal in either washer. I used to do laundry for my elderly great aunt (She has sadly passed away at 98 years) she was doubly incontinent so I had heavily stained laundry to do every...
