All fixed! The timer motor had just come loose in transit - simply clipped it back in and it works like a charm!   Jon

If it's stuck, would it be worth trying out WD40?  If so where would be the best place to lubricate it?   Sorry for all the questions, just really keen to get this set working!   Jon

Hi James,   I shall check it out tomorrow when I have a bit more patience - it was starting to get late anyway by the time I had switched the doors over to dry test the 9540.  I will report back with my findings, but my general suspicion is that it's the timer as you don't hear it tick either...

Hi guys,   I finally got round to dry testing out the pristine Hotpoint 9540 minus a door today (I borrowed the door off the matching 9330 dryer which I picked up today), however it has one issue where it will not advance through the cycle - I set it to a spin, and after 5 minutes of...

I don't have a stacking kit on my machines, and the dryer hasn't moved an inch.   Whilst they are best for a safeguard, in real practice you should be just fine without a kit.   Jon

With those acrylic nails, definitely!

You wouldn't know morals Rob if they hit you in the face ;-)   *ducks and runs*   (Love you really)

Matt, unfortunately you would need the documentation to know which setting to turn to which will alter the maximum water level option.  To put it another way, you know how to access the safe but you need the right code to get into it.   On the machines with the display a menu just comes up...

Ecover, Bio-D, Method

Congratulations!  Looks a smart machine.  I'm guessing it turns constantly one way while it's filling?   Jon

Henene I believe the models with the inverter motors also have the jet system, as on logixx' video.   No, that is the standard rinse level.  It will fill halfway up the door if you select either the quick wash with a standard cycle, or on the Daily Quick cycle.   Jon

My nana's machine

You really can't beat the current range of Beko machines for value for money.  Well built for the price, my mum has the 9kg version and my nana the 7kg, and they are both very happy with the performance.  Very quiet machines too (as quiet as my Miele), and after invesitgating inside mum's 9kg...

I have a W2652WPS, it has the water plus option where you can add rinses and/or increase the wash and rinse water level.  It will fill from between the edge of teh drum rim to a third up the door depending on the load and whether or not you select water plus.  I always use water plus on towels...

Washing underwear with trousers, t shirts, shirts etc is jus It really isn't - I have not heard of anybody who has died because they washed their pants with their t shirts...   It amuses me how people find washing underwear with t shirts in soapy water and detergent unhygienic, whilst they...

Bear in mind as I run a modern(ish) low water level machine alongside a Hoover Electron, I am here to tell you that considering the extra water it uses (which I do not mind, got to love a bit of washday drama) it does not rinse significantly better than the Miele.   Like I said before, there...

The WM25 as with all Aquarius models has a low level as standard, super rinse would fill about 2 inches up the glass on my Nana's.   To be honest, water levels aren't important when it comes to rinsing, there are plenty of variables - in my opinion spinning out the soapy water between the...

Relenting just once from my self-imposed detergent buying ban, I bought a small box myself, and have to say I am impressed at the performance compared to the standard of the previous liquitabs.  They clean well, rinse brilliantly and don't smell too offensive either.  I have noticed (especially...

The only way you'd be able to reduce drying times like that is if you used a higher spin speed i.e. in a spinner or a fast-spinning washer... Not that I have even tried it, but I very much imagine that any difference in drying times would be negligible if anything.

OK - looking at the manual the 9' rapid wash recommends only using fabric conditioner and no detergent - so a rinse in layman's terms then???   Very very crafty :)
