The latest formula of Almat that I have (in the more concentrated boxes) has no issues with clumping, unlike the stuff I used last year which while fantastic I ended up having to dose in the drum in a ball "Arielator" style :)   Jon

Almat powder.

If you want a simple detergent, I found Persil non bio small and mighty a good all-purpose detergent, again you can build it up with oxy bleach for whites etc but it is a great general detergent on lightly to normally soiled loads.   I still maintain that Almat is the best detergent out there...

Pierre, the European LGs (as with most of our washers) are cold fill only and heat their own water.   Jon

James!  Congratulations!  I have just got the 2nd of my 3 childhood machines, there is nothing quite like the feeling of finding something that is so familiar after a good few years!   Jon

Fear not! I managed to get the A3060 this afternoon!  It was only a ten minute drive from my mum's house, and seeming as I was over there visiting this weekend it seems that fate had it's part to play!   It is in need of TLC, and needs a bit of work doing to it but it is intact :-).  Owned...

Hoover 3060 in Lincoln! It needs to be done... wish me luck :)

It is only the Eco cycles that have the lower temperatures, most brands still have their standard cycles which indeed do reach target temperature.  E.g. Bekos have seperate Cottons and Cottons Eco cycles (it states in their manuals that Cottons Eco doesnt quite reach temp), my Maytag-Asko...

If the guarantee is short then I feel the manufacturer eithe Zanussi Washcrafts didn;t have 10 year guarantees. AEG Lavamats didn't have 10 year guarantees Miele only offered 1 year guarantees until the early 2000.s Bosch machines only come with a 2 year guarantee.   By your theory, this...

One's concentrated the other is not... the number of washes/amount to dose will be the clue as to which is which   Jon

Watching the video in reply #2 has made me realise just how inefficient my kitchen-come-laundry room is, I must rearrange it at once to make my washdays easier!!   Loving these videos... my parents live in a house not dissimilar to the one in the Hoover video, the small room off their hallway...

Not a food fad per se, but it really grates on me when you see every Tom Dick and Delia of the culinary world slapping their names on cheap kitchen appliances/gadgets with a higher price tag just because it has their signature on it...   The worst thing is, WHY would Anthony Worral Thompson's...

Personally I use colour protect detergents - and never have problems with black/darker laundry fading, jeans looking "washed out", all effects of bleaching agents found in conventional powders.  When you think that a washing load can potentially contain £200 worth of clothes, the way I see it if...

That AEG set looks lovely in the cupboard - my first laundry pair was an AEG washer and dryer from 2004 (the dryer still lives on at my partners house, the washer is in storage), and I absolutely loved them.  The Sensitive rinsing was the best option on that machine, as well as the flexible time...

Congratulations!  Let us know how you get on with it once the compressor has settled :-).   Looks smart with the black-on-black display - is this one of the models with the blue rather than yellow LCD?   Jon

Why must be this nearby to me?  Thinking of going for it given it's condition...   Jon

So Paul - what are your first impressions? I'm keen as to hear what yours are and compare them to mine...   Jon

I've just bought the exact same pair from the same place... thread to follow when I've used it more.   Rob - it's 1800rpm :)   Jon

I'm sorry Iowegian but where do you get your facts from?   Dryers here either vent outdoors/through an open window (clue is in the name) - moisture being vented directly outside, or the condenser units condense the water hence do not spew any more moisture into a room than a dryer that vents...

Chris; glad you like it and that it's gone to a good home :).   My friend is really pleased with the Aqualtis dryer, so everybody's happy!   Jon
