Feel the same way too, but
They aren't the only reasons why Deluxe is a little down..
Aquarius1984 - LIKE for "If its not about exploding machines its about lies, fantasy or if buts"
however fantasy part sadly isn't displayed jsut in way "I will get a new washer".. this will basicly show everything:
Imperial - help with repair, telling how programme or sth works (so they have used it), or showing collection, and there is higher joy when you get something vintage, rather that something that is everywhere in the stores
Deluxe - usually negative oppineons for quality, or low water usage, but that is ok - respecting oppineons. However I often ran into fantasies like manufacturers "lying" about capacity, or wash performance etc quite a few times, like they have no control, and can do whatever they want.. and after all, if you asked them for exapmple "How can you say you can't fit 8kg in there? tried?" - they would start telling some other reasons, but they won't deny that they haven't checked anything..
So, just the quick point: Imp.-real experience Del.-very often just prepositions, sadly, displayed in a way like it was real experience, but it doesn't go further than seing how machine looks in the shop... and even more sadly, that happends very rarely, when it actually comes to discussion, because more often thread raches 20-30 reply's mostly with comments like Thanks, Looks great, or Congratulations, or some questions that are asked just not to write just 3 words, and everyone knows a reply that is so logical and obvious...
so, that's just how I see it, and I wanted to share it with you. Of course, there is number of exceptions to what I wrote upthere
