Hi Louis and Seamus,
Yes indeed Funguy is not much fun! Mr. Funguy you need to chill and have some patience in life!

A few videos are uploading now, you will find them from my link.

Great vid of the Dyson. It looks pretty rough on the laundry. Does it damage the load at all? Not sure I would want to put delicate stuff in the contrarotaing drum.

There are loads of these washers on Ebay which makes me wonder if they are not that popular. Am I right in thinking that have stopped manufacturing them?

Hi 2DrumsAllergy

Your CR02 is exactly like mine but mine is the flowcheck version and yours is the allergy model, the cycles are the same.
I am very glad you and I appreciate this washing machine, they clean clothes very well aswell as rinse and extract water as it is AAA!
Thanks for the videos!

Hi This washing machine is amazing it cleans the clothes in the fastest time giving the cleanest wash with a large load and one thing it has never damaged clothes such as beaded tops because there are delicates cycles handwash cycles so no worries and plus there is a special duvet cycle!
Yes Dyson have stopped manufacturing them but they still service them!
I wouldn't really say they are unpopular because some of those on ebay are second hand washers, badly used washers or just broken washers but sometimes there can be a good washer once in a while.
By the way the fast contrarotation is only for cottons/synthetics cycles.
I would not give this washer up until it breaks down which it never has! VERY RELIABLE!
Thanks everyone.
 
Hi all

Thanks for taking the time to do this David. I know how long it can take, especially if yo want to do them properly. I will have a look later when I am home from work.

Wow! Great videos! I guess you're right. I shouldn't be asking for videos. If I just wait, peoploe will upload videos and I don't have to nag them. Those are great videos. Do you have ones of the rinse uploading as I type? Your washer is pretty...interesting. It makes an interesting sound that sounds like a blender and a girl screaming. I will comment more on the washer after I'm done watching the videos.
 
Wow! Those WERE great videos. But I have some questions as to how the machine works. I saw the machine actually does not Contrarotate esclusively like I thought it did. It starts out by doing normal back and forth tumbling and it ends that way too. During those times it sounds like a normal Front-Loader. Does it Contrarotate during rinse? How does the rinse action work? Do you have videos of the rinse cycle? Is 1100 R.P.M the fastest spin speed the machine has? When I saw the interim spin stop, the clothes were still stuck to the walls. Does the machine do normal tumbling or Contrarotating to get them fluffed? Did a dryer match for this machine come out? I heard it did and it used the same cyclonic technology as Dyson vacuums instead of a lint filter to get rid of lint. Which cycle was that on the videos? How long does the cycle last? Did this machine ever come to the U.S.A.? What is the difference between the CR02 Flowcheck and The CR02 Allergy and what is the "Memory" in CR01 Memory? Is the memory the only version of the CR01? Sorry if that seems like a lot of questions, but I'm curious.
 
The Dyson's top spin speed was 1400rpm.

There never was a Dyson Tumble Drier actually produced, though there was 'gossip' of one being designed.

The 'Memory' versions were basically the same machines , but with user memory to store favourite programmes with options.
 
Funguy

OK THIS IS PROP NOT THE PLACE TO BE SAYING THIS BUT Mr FUNGUY?????,YOU A ARE A TWIT AND VERY ANNOYING, TAKE A HINT.
 
Funguy10: You annoy everone with demanding videos. How about YOU make some?

2DrumsAllergy: WOW great videos. Very big thanks for you making the videos. Its interresting when it begin with the contrarotation you hear a special sound from the machine. These machines was also sold here in Sweden, but only through special import. They were extremly expensive. I couldnt afford buy one, i bought a Siemens instead. Sadly the Siemens broke down totally after 2 and a half years use. I then bought an Elektro-Helios that (so far) works perfect.
 
You're right. I should stop nagging for videos. When I get my mini-camcorder I got for Christmas to download videos to my computers I will video my Kenmore Oasis. Also, you are right about the CR02 sounds. It sounds a lot like a normal Front-Loader while it is tumbling back & forth. I always thought the washer Contrarotated exclusively. At 1:06 in the first video The sound you are talking about can be heard. It is kind of quiet grind sound before the machine actually stats Contrarotating. When the machine is Contrarotating it sounds kind of like a countertop blender. The laundry moves around like it is in one too. Sometimes though, it looks like the load is tumbling on a diagonal axis. Also, you can sometimes hear a whine like a girl screaming. Also the laundry is somtimes balled up at a diagonal point at the bottom when the machine pauses instead of right at the bottom. At 3:07 in the second video you can hear the machine make a whine sound kind of like a power drill and see the laundry move slightly as the Contrarotation finishes and it goes back to normal back & forth tumbling to finish the wash.
 
At 5:10 in the second video the wash is done and the machine sits there soaking for about 1 minute. At 6:07, the machine tumbles to distribute the load once and soaks for 1 more minute. At 7:07 the machine grinds once and distributes the load and the drain pump comes on to drain out the wash water. At 7:30, the pump gets louder as the water is done draining out. Also, I was shocked to see that the Contrarotator does a neutral drain and that the pump makes a gentle whoosh instead of that "Chug,Chug,Chug" noise the pump makes in most Front-Loaders. If you listen at the very end of the second video and throughout the third video you can hear the pump turn off for and instant every now and then. At 0:55 the machine is done distributing and turn continuously pulling the laundry to the sides until the machine begins to gain speed at 1:30. The machine can be heard whining up as it gets faster and the drum appears to vibrate a lot until it gains 1100 R.P.M. speed at 2:45. I like how the machine spins so balanced and quiet. It spins at full speed until it begins to wind down at 3:34. The motor shuts down at 4:03 and the drum comes to a full stop at 4:10.

So, yeah. In conclusion, pretty interesting sounding machine.
 
LOl I think Funguys got too much time on his hands .
Great video for a great machine. Thanks for posting this dyson2drums.

Great Videos, David!
The wash action seems to be a mix of agitating and tumbling to me.
The intermiate spin is great!
 
Until you post a pic or video or something other being an irritating pain in the ass "funguy" dont be so demanding of others when you dont pony up yourself here. I have said it before and I will say it again you need to get a clue...fast!
