Frigidaire Affinity 6700 Water Level

Jim--That would seem to make sense (re water usage in Frigidaire FL'ers), but then you get Duet/Hettie/LG's that use very, very little water with very good-to-excellent cleaning scores. Longer wash cycle, perhaps? There must be additional parameters (beyond simple water usage) at play...

Agree....differences could even be explained by how the water shoots out of the holes in the drum paddles. Within the Frigidaire lineup, however, it's odd and probably not a coincidence that the least water-conserving models seem to wash the best.

2000 rpm Affinity washer wohooooooooo

My ex work colleagues taught me how to increase the maximum spin speed on Affinity washers.

Both motor and suspension is able to handle 2000 rpm, but I don´t know why Electrolux decided to limit the speed to 1100 rpm.

Tho deactivate the speed limit is easy, but i can´t remember now. I have the instructions at home and i´ll post it later.

It´s something like enter the autotest mode and press a sequence of butons. the "high speed" goes from 900 rpm to 1100 rpm and the "maximum" speed goes from 1100 to 2000 rpm every time these speeds are selected.

yesterday night i washed a huge comforter (heavy cycle, warm water, 2000 rpm) it dried in 20 minutes at the affinity electric dryer.
