Alliance Laundry to Acquire Primus Group

220v-220v

If Miele tried, and tried then subsequently gave up don't see anyone else trying to bring American laundry rooms "up to standard" with 220v washing machines. There is just not enough domestic demand for such a washer to warrant the bother from manufacturers.

Miele has their "Little Giant", but other than that the idea of self heating washers drawing 220v does not exist in the domestic American laundry arena. Customers just don't want to be bothered with the expense and so forth of installing such power where it does not exist. Yes, there are homes with 220v lines for dryers, but that is not nearly universal and IIRC in some markets (California) strongly discouraged.

Embrace change

Now Launderess, that way of thinking is why "Hyacinth" is on a CORDED PHONE.

One Does Like To Keep The Mobile Phone Free

For important calls!

Cannot stop here chatting; speaking of important telephone calls am waiting for one from Sheridan. He and his nice flat mate Tarquin are heading up to London for something to do with marriage equality. Hmmm, one has never found anything about marriage to be equal but long as Sheridan is keeping away from designing females suppose the trip will do him the world of good. Such a nice lad that Tarquin, he's won prizes for his embroidery!

Indeed, our Launderess is in possession of a razor-sharp wit.

In that note...

... I just understand prewash!
But for real: Why Primus? AFAIK they were well in the market?
