I noticed that too with the rinse only cycle. The rinse only cycle does a final spin too, but I wish you could press the super quick option and make it do a 30 min rinse, like my old Zanni did.

I've got the discontinued 1600 spin version (the ZWH7162J) and it is also an excellent performing machine! Have you used the Super Quick option? It's excellent and uses lots of water (and I use it all the time). Does yours have the inverter motor or the brushed motor? Also, the Synthetics 30...

Nope, Ariel is the equivalent to Tide in the US.

Here are my current detergents for September 2012. Powders: Ariel Bio 10 wash box, almost empty (This cleans very very well, but the scent overpowers the fabric softener all the time, even with an extra rinse.) Daz 38 wash box, almost empty (I really like this, it has a nice soapy smell and it...

My Zanussi Jetsystem pumps out right before the wash starts so no water is left in the sump.

I don't have a machine of my own yet unfortunately, but the first machine I remember is the Zanussi Nexus FL1282, which lasted until 2002. This was replaced with a Zanussi Jetsystem FJD1266W.

Yes!

Powder all the way! Liquids made my old machine smell, so I now use powder most of the time!

The manual for the Arcor is here now! http://finn.pictura.co.uk/arcor.pdf

Yes it should do, and OK!

I use Sketchup with this program called SU Podium to render the final product. http://www.suplugins.com/

Here is the dispenser drawer, and the compartments (from left to right) are main wash, prewash and fabric softener. The dividers between compartments are removable for easy cleaning.

Here's a closer look at the drum, which has wave paddles (one side is the "intensive side for cottons and one side is the "delicate" side for everything else"). The drum has oversized stronger bearings as well.

Arcor Classic WM12502W The Arcor Classic WM512502W is a basic, timer driven washing machine which only has basic features that people use. It has a 5.5kg capacity and a 1200 spin speed, and it has a variable spin dial. Here is the picture, the manual is coming soon.

We have a Bush machine (they're very similar to the Electras) in our local Argos and the dial doesn't click into the program, the buttons wobble around a lot and the whole thing feels shoddily built. There is an Indesit next to it which only costs £20 more, yet the Indesit feels like it could...

Hi, Today I was at IKEA in Leeds buying some of their flat-pack furniture, and I saw a washing machine in the laundry department, the Renlig FWM7. It looks exactly like my Zanussi except it has some programs missing (Curtains, Mini 30) and replaced with cold cycles for cottons and synthetics...

Well, my Zanussi ZWH7162J only takes 20 minutes on its Synthetics 30 Super Quick cycle and this cycle has quite a high water level as well! It is great for refreshing things and the results are actually quite good. Also, it is very quiet and the times that are displayed are often over-estimated...

If you want a small capacity washing machine with a quick cycle to refresh things, how about the Bosch Classixx WAE28368GB? It has a Super Quick 15 minute cycle which would be good for smaller loads and it has a smaller 7kg capacity which, while not small enough it seems, would be fine. Plus it...

I really like Lenor in the Sunshine (from the Netherlands) because it just smells very summery and fresh and leaves a nice light scent on your clothes. Also, I like the scent of Lenor Peach and Moonflower.

aegokocarat My dryer never leaves the clothes smelling damp but my old Zanussi time driven model did, maybe you need to set it for slightly longer?
