My LG washer which is less than 5 years old has started to pump the wash water out at about 15 minutes in to the wash cycle. The time indicator had 3 more hours to go to complete the cycle. It has done this on 2 occasions this morning. I was running the cotton cycle on 60C (140F). I ran the...

I went to Harvey Norman this morning. A major electrical and appliance outlet here in Australia. I always like to have a mooch around the washing machine section. There was a speed Queen TL. $3,295.00 Au which is $2,039.93 US. Seems pretty steep to me. Nice looking machine. Obviously made for...

Saw this article from Huffington Post. Experts passing judgement on which is better. Top loading or front loading washer design. Nothing new really. Was a little worried about stacking a front load washer on top of a drier. Sure that wouldn’t end well. Can you imagine an out of balance spin...

My LG front load washer has started to drain the wash water after only 10 to 15 minutes in to the wash. It seems once it gets to the correct temperature it decides to pump out. After that it just tumbles with no water in it and another 2 plus hours on the display. Does it on the cotton cycle...

I have a new LG washer and just noticed at the end of the final spin when it is coasting down it opens the cold inlet valve three times and lets in cold water for a second or so each time. Is this normal? Most of the water goes down the inside of the glass door from the soap dispenser but some...

Hi everyone, I have a F&P single dishwasher draw. It is not pumping water out. I have taken the filter out and pulled the impeller out of the bottom and no blockage that I can see. When I try to force water down the end of the drain pipe there is total resistance. Is this resistance a blockage...

Hi Guys, I have an LG front load washer (WD14071sd6) about 8 years old now but was running perfectly. I had not used the machine for 6 months (I treated my self to a new LG). I used it yesterday and when drum rotates makes a weird growling noise, I then get an LE error message which means motor...

I took delivery of my brand new LG ThinQ 12kg washer yesterday. Sometimes it is a curse being fascinated by washing machines. The door has a deep smoked outer cover which makes it near impossible to see inside. With my old LG it had the same but was easily removed with a knife and popping it out...

Hello, my Bosch series 8 dishwasher has been fabulous up until today. Turns itself off about 5 seconds after starting a cycle. No error messages just shuts down. Any ideas or suggestions would be very welcome. Only around 5 years old. Was looking on line and new Bosch D/W around $2000 au. Simon

So, had to buy a new drier as was not able to get my Maytag drier connected up to a 30 amp outlet. We are now living in rural Australia and have a crappy Power supply to our house. So brought a Bosch series 6 heat pump drier. Have to say am pretty impressed with it. Did a load of towels spun at...

Has anyone ever noticed that in the US the new front load washers control panel seems to always have the spin speed listed as low medium high and the water as cold warm hot extra hot. In Europe and Australia the speed of spin is displayed eg 400rmp, 800rpm 1000rpm etc. And the temperature is...

I have a 10kg LG true steam washer. The re-circulation pump is activating but only a dribble of water comes out. Trying to open the back/bottom and rear but it is like fort Knox. Anyone have any tips how to get inside to check for blockages etc? Simon Sydney Australia

Doe any of the UK guys remember a cylindrical shaped dishwasher that had a clear plastic dome that fixed to the base of the unit? When it was working you could watch the wash action. My best friend's Mum had one that sat on the draining board. I used to love watching it washing. Never seen one...

So I am trying to get a European top load horizontal axis washer for a friend who has a narrow space and can't fit a regular 600mm washer. I cannot find anything in Australia apart from regular frontload washers and regular impeller/agitator washers. Anyone here in Oz know if any are available...

We purchased an LG true steam dishwasher a little over 2 years ago. Not a great machine. Looks good and lots of features but we have to use the power cycle which is the longets hottest heavy duty cycle as all other cycles give poor results. So 70 days after the warranty ran out the machine...

A few years ago we started to renovate our home. We brought an outrageously expensive spa bath which we have loved. A little over two weeks ago the pump stopped working. Contacted the company who basically said it is out of warranty you just need to get an electrician and or plumber to fix it...

So the new KOH-I-NOOR spin-dryer arrived eventually yesterday (very frustrating). The company www.oziel-ecoappliances.com.au were great but the courier Co not so good. Made in Argentina but adapted for the Aussie market Really neat little machine with a spin speed of 2,800 RPM. Looking forward...

Hi guys, Just finished renovating my Hoover twin tub. Pump had seized up and a few minor leaks. Got this one on eBay a few years back. The Australian model with no water heater. I used to love using my Mum's wash dog in the 70s in the UK when i was a kid. The one with the built in fill hose...

I have two old GE filter flo washers from the 70s and 80s, they are great washers and I love the filter flo action. Why did the whole recirculating water thru a filter go out of fashion? I have a Maytag Atlantis and it washes really poorly compared to the older filter flo washers. And it is...

Hi guys, Spending a few days in Hong Kong and just come across this very interesting washer manufactured by Hitachi. Looks really cool. Over 10 kg load with 1600 rpm spin. It has a gravity drain with no pump which is odd but it is a very advanced washer dryer and would love to get one but alas...
