Hate to tell you Frontloader fan ....but V-Zug have plastic outer tubs and I'm sure that Miele do on at least some machines too.   As far as I'm aware, the only manufacturer of domestic front-load machines universally used a metal outer tub is ASKO.

You can't fault a 'mend and make do' mentality in people, but it would have been nice if she hadn't thought that's what she had to do especially as it's a new machine.

So given that there is so much money flowing to the health system in the US, why on earth is it the dearest place to get treatment?   A few key examples of general health care in Australia:   - Private health insurance is not generally employer provided - Private health insurance, when paid...

Ok...try this one This is the last entry in the link.   '<span class="postbody">Just fixed my AEG washing machine with C6 fault. Changed wtare valve and sorted electrical distribution box which had become unclipped. </span> <span class="postbody"> Holding down Prewash and Stain buttons...

Ian Is the dishwasher working correctly now?   I'd love to know how many Dishlex 302 et.al. have been junked because the service person quoted $200 for the part and $160 labor (callout fee plus total 45 minutes)?

It could be cracked solder Being part of  Electrolux, it is probable that it uses a similar timer to the Dishlex machines.   My DX302 also stopped heating water earlier this year and the fault turned out to be as simple as cracked solder under the small square/rectangle electronic relay. A...

Rolls... Good grief....   It's OMO - Levers premium detergent in Oz and probably formulated similarly (if not identically) to Persil in the UK. It was recently reformulated, so it's entirely possible that it has Lipase in it. It certainly has an oxygen bleaching agent in it.   If it's...

If it were me... ...and I was able, I'd go back with them and get Lowes to take the dryer back. Knowing that they simply wanted an older style 'twist and push-to-start' dryer and being sold a 'line' by a sales man is a particularly dirty trick.   The mention of the local paper and their...

Louis We had a Bosch in the UK that used to hate powder, but was fine with the Lidl W5 tablets.   Here, I find that tablets do work better overall, but that limits the ability to dose. I'm also not a fan of the additional packaging that comes with them. On the other hand, Aldi Logix powder...

Morning Gary,   Apart from domestically, I've never been a baker....so I've not got to worry about yeast as such.    

Tom I do know what citric acid is and what it is used for. Sure, I can buy it in 75g tube in the cooking aisle of the supermarket if I wish to pay $2.50 for it, but I'd rather buy a kilo of it for $6 online.....   I grew up with a single rinse machine too that was used in conjunction with a...

First things first Well we've received a refund from Levers for the box of detergent as well as a return jiffy bag and a zip lock bag to send a sample back.   Excellent service!   So the next step was to drain the sump and check the button trap. No gunk in the trap at all. No mould either...

Thanks for the suggestions....I've a few things to work my way through, one of which is to do a 90c cycle with a hit of dishwasher detergent this evening!

Harley ...and a perfectly valid one too.

...and they said nothing of particular consequence. However, they did elude to there being: 'known issues with the mix of enzymes in their powder that could cause residual odour' I've to send them a sample when they send my refund.[this post was last edited: 10/28/2013-23:35]

Nathan It's indiscriminate. It can appear in anything from heavy track material to close woven trousers to business shirts. I'm ringing Levers today to see what they say.

MRX How on earth did you conclude that I used liquids and washed in cold water? - I use OMO powder, which is our 'Persil'...in fact the same product is badged Persil in NZ. - I NEVER use liquids - I NEVER use fabric conditioners - Washing is always hung up or tumble dried promptly - I do NOT...

Mike It ultimately depends on if it is a quick cycle or not, but the interim spins are either 900rpm or 1200rpm. Maximum is 1200rpm.   It's a Zanussi based machine, pretty much identical to those supplied under the John Lewis label a few years ago.

Ok, will try and get some today and see how we go.   I'm assuming that 100ml of a 20% solution would be 20gm dissolved in 80ml water?

Gabriele So the easiest acid that I have to hand is white vinegar.   Would a 1/4 cup in the final rinse be a good place to start, though I acknowledge it is very mild....
