ISE 1607W - Asko

[northernmary]

After looking online again to change my machine I was going for the miele W5740 but after the last time and all the trouble I had with my dryer, I’ve decided to go for an ise 1607W (Asko) machine from a local independent retailer in Bradford, the service has been fantastic so far and he is even coming to install the machine today even though his shop is closed. To me it proves that little shops that need our custom still provide the best aftercare. Once the machine arrives around 2pm ill post some pictures and do some videos for whoever is interested…

Nice to see...

A 50deg option and 1200 as well as 1600 options
And a 10 year guarantee obviously!

Yep to me it’s knocked spots of the miele. Cannot wait to do a load of whites in her…Named her already Isabella

I want one so badly What a great styling!

Sure it looks (and I bet feels and works) WAY better than a Miele!

 

[newwave1]

I'm so jealous your getting one of these!

I'd have one over a miele anyday!

How is it?

wow

OUT OF THIS WORLD !

The Machine arrived well packed and on a wooden pallet. The machine is very well built and solid, shutting the door is going to take a while getting used to, the machine to me feels like a professional machine for a domestic environment well-built and will take plenty of hammer, Well I’ve done a load of whites in the machine on a colours/whites programme 50 deg 1600 spin and it took 1hr 27mins, the machine is well built and there are no cabinet vibrations at all at full 1600spin, the machine spins at 1600rpm for 5 mins before doing a couple anti crease tumbles then the door automatically opens, The pump on the machine sounds powerful and not as noisy as in other machines I’ve had. The detergent drawer is the deepest I’ve seen so plenty of room for the powder, the machine uses plenty of water. I’m sorry to say but after using a miele and now using the ise (Asko) there is no comparison in built quality and the quality of the machine. I’ll get around to taking some pictures once the cam has charged up, in the meantime ill post some I took with my phone

Very curious as to what happened to the LG?

 

[aquarius1984]

Talk about making us wait LOL> Only ask as Mother Dearest mentioned having a washer dryer. And considering she has had a good 6 years service out of her LG so far wondered if the new ones were all they are cracked up to be.

Normal Programme , 60 deg , 1600 rpm , high water level, 2.20hrs

 

[pulsator]

GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

**WANT!!!**

 

I've been drooling over the US version of this machine for a little while and now I NEED one!!! It's GORGEOUS! And I LOVE LOVE LOVE the lack of a tub boot!

 

It appears that your machine has 2 more options than the US version as well as a faster spin. How are the water levels without the high water level selected? What's the other option?

Pretty machine! I hope you can make a video. And let us know what you think of the different options. Do you feel you need the extra water option all the time?

 

[northernmary]

foraloysius I don’t think i really need the high water level on to be honest but were not on a water meter so we pay £20 a month for all the water I can use, I’ve run out of washing to do ! First time ever so I’m taking my parents laundry just so I can use the machine. This machine is a keeper mike I love it !

Now That Miele and Bosch Offer 120V Washers

Asko is the only remaining brand of domestic front loading washer that is strictly 220v only. However IIRC there was or still maybe the lower priced "Euroline" washers (an Amercian division of Asko) that run on 120v power.
