Oh and the best of all was my 1500 spin Ariston Margeherita which seemed to spin forever and do it twice like the Beko does and the clothes were practically dry! Best spin i've ever seen on any machine for dryness.No wonder the bearings dont last on em. chuckle chuckle!

hotpoint aquarius 1300 (merloni version) we had was appalling even though it seemed to spin forever the results were just so poor. My mother's neighbours zanussi S218T does a far greater job of water extraction at 800rpm. Mind you, that old thing spins for something like 15 minutes so it's to be expected really.

Many modern machines I think do not come close to machines made 20 yrs ago in terms of spin efficiency...look at the hoover logic 1300 for example, bone dry!!!

my logic 1300 spins amazingly dry. i think its because it spends so long at 800 at then whoooosh up to 1300 its extremely effective!

my 1400rpm aeg doesnt spin as well in my opinion.

Miele 1550 RPM Spin

Our Miele, pre honeycomb does a 1550 spin that lasts for quite a considerable length of time. Clothes come out extremely well extracted to the point that tumble drying on low temp is quite practical for most clothes (in the matching miele dryer)

A lot of it seems to be down to the length of time that the machine spins for.
