Electrolux Opaque door models.

Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Help Support :

WH1025, WH1026, WH1125

These three models have the same fascia.

Three buttons: Door Release, Half Load and Superwash.

Now for the differences:
WH1025: Smaller dial next to dispenser is Spin Speed control.
Max Spin 1000rpm

WH1125: As WH1025 but with 1100rpm max spin.

WH1026: Smaller dial next to dispenser is Delay Start.
Max Spin 1000rpm.
 
WH1048

This seems to be an earlier 1000rpm model as it has the old style door release button.

It may have an induction motor with clutch pulley, delving deeper it seems more models did have them than I thought!

The other three buttons are Variable spin (1000rpm/500rpm), superwash and half load.

...and yes, Electrolux has added the left hand button in as an afterthought and without a ruler!
 
WH2125

Back to the top of the line model, the photo of which i posted earlier.

Left hand combined temperature and on/off control dial. Rather than the pull on/push off programmer dial, the temperature dial was turned clockwise to the required temperature to switch the machine on.

Far left smaller dial is spin speed.

The four buttons are Door Release, Time Saver, Mixed Load and Extra Economy Wash.

Max spin speed: 1100rpm.
 
Washer dryer WD1034

Right hand dial is programmer. Left hand is drying time.

Five buttons! which are 'Half Load/Autodry', 'Economy Wash', 'Low Spin', 'Door Release' and 'Delicate Dry'.

Max spin: 1000rpm.
 
Washer Dryer WD1035

Right hand dial is programmer. Left hand is drying time. Far left, smaller dial is delay start.

Three buttons, Door Release, Half Load/Autodry and Delicate Dry.

Max Spin: 1000rpm
 
Washer Dryer WD1036 Turbodry

Right hand dial is programmer. Left hand is drying time.

Two buttons: 'Autodry' and 'On/Off'.

Door release button is between and below the two dials.

Max speed: 1000rpm
 
Washer Dryer WD3000T Jetsystem Turbodry

This one is the king of opaque door Electroluxes (In the UK at least!)

Four dials on this one (!!)

Right hand large is programme selector. Left hand large dial is Combined temperature/on-off switch (as on the WH2125).

Left hand small dial is 'Drying Time Control'.
Right hand small dial is 'Spin Speed Control'.

Two buttons are Autodry and Door Release.

Max spin: 1000rpm.
 
Well that's it. All the UK range of WH and WD series opaque door models (I think!).

I hope you find it useful.

"You cant say that this machine is the same machine! It's two complete different machines!

The Electrolux'es with black door, is from the C7000 and C8000 platform. The washer in the video is (I think) a P6000 series machine!"

Timon90 and Tom;

You're wrong when saying Cxxx and Pxxx are different projects.

Pxxx series is the evolution of Cxxx series. (in some countries they were sold at same time, but the Cxxx is much older than Pxxx.)
I know these washers like the palm of my hand since i was directly involved in it's project. I had to study part after part, inch after inch, program after program to develop the brazilian projects.

Pxxx was the biggest Cxxx update and the brazilian models are nothing more than Pxxx with a plastic surgery, facial peeling and a new hair style. so, technically, it's the same model with a lot of updates and upgrades.

this project was so well made that is very difficult to retire it. electrolux Brazil will produce them for at least 10 years more because argentinians simply love the EW series.

When my team created Insight, we had to get some inspiration on those previous models, but never make it as a copy with some cosmetic changes, it was mandatory.

By the way, all electrolux's creators and designers are not allowed to reuse the black hatch, not only because it's out of fashion, but to demonstrate respect to the best washer Electrolux ever had in more than 100 years.
 
Hey Darren

Gotta Love those opaque door model electrolux machines, my neighbour has one still, she bought it in May 1988, and its a turbo washer dryer. Is quiet as a whistle when its washing and spinning.

My best friend has this Electrolux EW900 from 1993 (pictured below), it has a 900rpm spin, i think this was one of the new generation Electrolux machines, which were based on the Zanussi Nexus construction, its a fantastic machine, makes that great humming sound when its washing, i think they had a jetsystem model too but it was called Aquaspray wash system
 
Dear Zanussi_lover;

Believe it or not, this washer is part of the same project family.

It also inspired the SE10 dryer in Brazil... (we still have it and I don't remember the model name in europe)
-----------------------------------
OFF TOPIC BELOW

There's a very small european E-lux washer that I don't remember the name , but I would die for it. I just remember I saw it's drawings but I've never seen it made. I remember the dial was huge if compared to the rest of the washer.
does anyone knows this model? In what countries they were sold?
 
P6000 machines had Carboran outertub, C7000 and C8000 had stainless steel outertub. Every machine is a evolution of something before, but it's wrong to say the Opaqe door machines is the same as P6000 series!!! And P series had splitted cabinet, not a backpanel you find on the C series. If the machines had the same drum, tub, and steering system, it could be called the same machine, with cosmetic change, but it's not so with P and C series.

The small machine you are talking about, is the EW1170C I think. I have one! It's made in Sweden.
 
The P6000 are a completely different construction. The split cabinet design was entirely new, the nexus carboran tub was entirely new. The programming on P6000 machines is different to the C**** machines.

In the UK Electrolux always marketed the P6000 machines as an entirely new design, I could probably quote it from somewhere if I had to.

The C7000 C8000 are Zanussi Industry designs from a period before Electrolux was involved.

I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on that one.
 
woooah the last time i looked there was 6 replies to this thread!!!! Thanks for your input guys! I haven't seen many of these on ebay lately, though i always keep a keen eye out for one, i should imagine the people who have them dont want to let them go! My brothers best friend had the matching washer & dryer! He invited me round to see it when i was small and i really wanted one! lol.
