    Final Results from the Extraction Test

    I believe the Oasis spins at about 1050 RPM for the last 3.5 minutes of the cycle,

    Lets see the Cabrio!

    My theory is this: You know how the agitator has 3 triangle-shaped baffles raised off of the agitator? You know, the raised surfaces on the sides of the holed skirt? I think that as the wash plate rotates, the edge "scoops" and "pulls" the clothes into the center of the wash plate. Since all of...

    Final Results from the Extraction Test

    I noticed from pictures that the holes in the Harmony are spaced quite far apart from each other. In my Oasis the holes are about 1cm apart from each other.

    Lets see the Cabrio!

    I don't think that the wash plate "weighs" the load, but it does measure the resistance on the plate when it rotates, kinda like F&P SmartDrive. Sheets and Towels doesn't start when the tub has lifted; is starts when the washer has determined that the resistance on the wash plate has lessened so...

    Lets see the Cabrio!

    The way I load my Oasis is just dump the basket in! I find everything still gets washed, and clean too. I load towels and sheets like there was an agitator in the middle. No problems with rollover or water circulation for me.

    Lets see the Cabrio!

    What a coincidence! I just posted my own Oasis video a couple of minutes ago! A smaller load than Bobby's, but still shows the rollover quite well. BTW: How do you embed a video in these forums. I tried in my previous thread but it won't work! Thanks in advance.

    How bout some Oasis action

    This machine relies on the Direct Inject Catalyst spray at the beginning to "release" most of the stains and dirt, and the agitation I believe is to get out the loose dirt, and to get out the more set-in stains. All of my dingy white socks and shirts come out perfectly white on the Heavy Duty...

    HE Detergent, Is it really necessary?

    I have a huge box of Tide with Bleach powder I bought at Cos If you didn't open it or used very little of it, RETURN IT! Costco has a very easy-going return policy. Just tell them that you got a new washing machine that can't use this kind of detergent because of the "HE" requirement. I did...

    Trip to Home Depot and Lowes..Have questions:

    I went to Sears Home today and played with the blue LG Steam Washer a bit. It was plugged in, and our salesman didn't mind me at all trying out the spin cycle. I guess if you bought something there before they don't really mind what you do!

    spinning RPM's

    The Oasis/Cabrio step-spin up to 1050 RPM. The clothes come out VERY dry, and with little wrinkling.

    Ban SUV's NOW!

    What kid needs a DVD player in the CAR??????????? What kid DOESN'T need a DVD player in the car?!?!?!?! I have one in my minivan, and I use it all of the time to watch my TV, movies, and when I want to watch something on a bigger screen than an iPod. Nothing shuts kids up on a long trip than...

    Ban SUV's NOW!

    Isn't that the same kind of Volvo that the founder of IKEA drives? I ride in a 2005 Montana SV6. It's a nice minivan, but it could get a little better mileage, and I don't think the weekly trips to Costco help either! I could never go back to riding in anything but a minivan or SUV because the...

    Xmas question for the real girls: Gift for 14 y.o ?

    16 year olds I'm 14, keep in mind. I would probably want a gift card or certificate. The new iPod shuffle looks nice too, if you want to really go out there. But I would go for the gift cards/certificates. I would rather choose my own gift than have an adult guess what I would want and choose...

    Posting Videos on YouTube

    I've had about 3 negative comments on my videos, and most of them were from people who signed up like a week before, who want nothing but to start a fight. They don't even have videos! They should have no right to comment on other peoples' videos if they have no videos that others can comment...
