Yes I agree toploader1984...I really want to see the Electrolux's in action in a real home setting.
Still am gagging at an over four hour "sanitise" cycle.
Four hours to reach only 158F? One might be better off putting said items into a pot and boiling them on the range.
Cannot imagine how much wear and tear there would be on laundry subjected to that cycle for each wash.

The thought of you gagging over the washing taking 4hrs and then getting jack of the whole thing and bringing them to the boil on the range has really tickled me....
You've painted an annimated picture there
Thank you..

Laundress, My LG takes only about 2 1/2 hrs for the Sanitary cycle and that is on the heavy soil setting and extra rinse.
Were you referring to the Electrolux with the 4 hr. sanitize?
Thanks,
Ray

Thread was about Electrolux washers, didn't see any mention of LG. Did I miss something?

Hi Laundress....I think I must have missed somthing. Just wanted to know where it was stated that the E_Lux took over 4 hrs on the sanitize cycle. I was just making reference to my LG.
So...let me know.
Thanks
Ray

Link at top of thread to Electrolux'x website has owner's manuals for downloading. Said manual lists cycles and their respective times. The "sanitary" cycle shows a time of over four hours.

Thanks Laundress. I must have missed that. lol However, I think if your incoming water is very hot, the time may be a little shorter?

E'lux Sanitary...NOT 4 hours long.
Guys I visited the Electrolux web site and looked at the "Washer Settings Chart" in the Use & Care (under Specifications & Guides) and the Sanitize cycle at factory presets is listed at 144 minutes that boils down to 2 hours and 40 minutes.
Where did 4 hours come from?

George, You are correct. I just checked the Use and Care guide. 144 min. it is. So 2 hrs and 24 min.

I can't believe
that none of these new Electrolux washer vids are on youtube. I see several Electrolux washers but I suspect they're Euro.

Electrolux!
From what I can see I like the Electrolux better than most of these other new front load machines. The cycles do seem to be shorter from viewing the instruction manual and the cycles seem to be straight foward. I still wish they would come up with a mechinal dial control like the origional frigmores. But I guess we are stuck with all these electronics like it or not. I am hoping that they come out with a combo but it doesn't look likely. So good luck to who ever makes the purchase.
Best Wishes,
Peter

I read that the use 53% less water than a typical TL. Most other modern US FL washers use 64 to 73 % less water. I guess that's why the rinses are more generous. I'd love to see one of these operate. Please post

I suppose the main reason people don't post videos of Electrolux front loaders is that they don't feel that there's much to see. Their point of view is probably that they are all identical in action, and that there are more than enough European files of front loaders already.

time for sanitary
Vintage Zanussi E'luxes took 3 hours to run a boilwash with a 105°F prewash. It dropped down to 100 mins @ the Jetsystem age, then went back to 2 1/2 hrs when the AAAAAA... rating thing began here
Can't imagine how many duets torn by hammer shots if in the german factory they swapped the new EU DUET (5 hours on eco-turtle-cycle ...) with the US model *LOL*
Does anyone have inernal pics of US E'lux frontloaders ??
Hope they aren't such a bad surprise like AEG-E'luxes ..

In the list, shown in white or maybe it's silver.
Beneath the "NSF" logo it says:
"The wash water is heated by an internal booster heater to the temperature of 152F for up to four hours".

Yep I see it too but I think that's a type-o or unless they mean not to exceed 4 hours with all options chosen.
"up to" is used to cover their claims of 144 minutes in case of balancing issues, extended wash time, pre wash, extra rinse etc.
