One of the best dryers ever made. Efficient, reliable and had a great reverse action to dry evenly and reduce creasing. Are they worth much? Probably not. Especially as that one is missing the chrome ring around the door. But they’re good dryers. However like Rob said above, they’re of their...

Either Persil or Ariel. Both are great performers. I personally prefer Persil and find it rinses out better, and the scent isn’t as strong, but I honestly ain’t fault either really. My standard go to detergents are Persil bio powder for whites and lights and Persil bio liquid for darks. Washes...

@rolls_rapide it’s a white display

I had a Miele W562 for 10 years and it was a lovely machine. I couldn’t fault it at all. I upgraded to a W1 machine - a WCG120 XL. BIG mistake. It have very bizarre programming. 1. The express cycle with only 1 rinse was near useless. I don’t use it often but it’s a handy feature to have...

Another vote for Persil bio. The new concentrated range, providing you don’t overdose, wash brilliantly and rinse clear. In soft water, I’ve found P&G detergents are a nightmare for foaming up and poor rinsing, although Ariel does wash well. The worst for foaming is Ecover.

Persil liquid for colours Persil bio powder for lights and whites. No additives needed, the powder already contains oxy bleach.

Great Universal 1999. Possibly one of the last twin tub appearances?

some misc catalogues through the years

low end vac's., made in China The C1's are German made. The only Miele's that aren't German-made are the C2 Powerline (the old S5 style) and C1 Compact (the old S4 style). C1 Classic, C2 Compact and all the C3's are German made.

You do know that both Splosh liquid and powder contain optical brighteners, right?

Hey Ben, long time no speak! Hope you’re well. I like the Splosh liquid and I used to really love their Cotton Flower powder but not keen on the Jasmine powder. I find the smell a bit too strong and it’s not great at rinsing out. I much prefer Persil to Ariel and have done for many years...

Persil Bio powder for whites, bedding and light colours. Persil Bio powder has always been my favourite detergent. It’s gets whites white, colours bright, smells clean and not too over powering and rinses exceptionally well. Persil Small & Mighty liquid for darks. I’ve only recently started...

I might have to order some more just to get the tin 😂

I loved the Splosh powder when they did the Cotton Flower scent but find the Jasmine one smells far too strong. Washes brilliantly though.

Hi all, I’ve not seen a detergent thread in a while so thought I’d start one. Here is my current stash. From left to right: Neutral scent free colour liquid ECOS magnolia and lily Ecoleaf Cotton Fresh Ecozone Bio liquid Super Croix liquid Le Chat tablets Rosalie’s zero suds HE powder...

Hi Janak, I’m still here :). I don’t post so much these days, mainly because I don’t have much interesting to post about lol. The market here in Mauritius seems to be fairly evenly split between front loaders and toploaders. My mother in law has an LG front loader and her sister has an Ocean...

I managed to get a sneaky snap of my partners grandma’s washer. She’s just turned 100 and still does all her own laundry.

This is the type of toploader that’s available here. I think you can manually select the water level. The 3 I’ve seen in action have at the very least covered the load.

Vorwerk VK200

Mark, definitely a combination of both styles of pulsator TL. Some seem more deep filling than others, with some sensing and saturating the load whilst others tend to fill at the bottom and be “dry” on top, though I have only seen 3 in action in my time here so I don’t take that as overly...
