Has anybody seen or used Dyson FL Washer?

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

Help Support :

I used one for 3 months and they're decent machines but Dyson are slowly but surely discontinuing them. Theyre very poor at rinsing and the dual drum action is only working for a very short period of time, coupled with the fact it is noisy it isnt as good as the manufacturer portrays it to be.
 
I wouldn't touch a Dyson anything....

...for their obnoxious advertisements that are an insult to my intelligence.

And not to mention their dubious products. Seems to me Dyson just wants to be Oreck when he grows up!
 
Yes, I've seen the Dyson washers

Bajaespuma,

Two Easter Holidays ago I went to London on vacation. Dyson washers and vacuum cleaners were on display in every major appliance store (including Harrod's!). The washers were available in three or four different models, quite distinguishable by the color of their outer plastic parts (bright yellow, lilac, blue, etc.). They all looked awesome, and I really must admit I loved their design!

The sales people were quite enthusiastic with the (new) brand, they even told me about great feedback from users. The washers seemed pretty sturdy machines. IIRC, the price range was rather in the higher end, but not as expensive as the Mieles.

I guess still have a couple of brochures with me, I could mail you one if you send me your address, or scann them and put them up here.
 
Overhere in the Netherlands the Dyson washers were almost twice the price of a Miele. They didn't sell at all, I guess in the UK they hardly sold either. No wonder the production was stopped. There were rumours Dyson would come out with a new model frontloader, but until now no sign of it.
 
As many others may see, you can see where Dyson really excels when it comes to marketing :-).

Funny how my AEG and Miele machines can get A-grade washing performance in 63 minutes on the AEG, or 65 minutes on the Miele respectively. Other machines also offer such cycles, with similar running times, high capacities (7kilos), & A grade wash performance at the shorter running time.

To be fair on Dyson, though, they were developed at a time when 5kilo frontloaders still dominated the market, and had 2 hour cycles as standard (although most were reducible to around 1 hour through quick wash options etc). Nowadays standard frontloaders have capacities of up to 7 or 8 kilos, within a standard European cabinet, and have short cycles as standard still maintaining Class A performance. All at a cheaper price.
