To me that looks like a Bosch/Siemens machine in disguise.

drum

the drum looks a lot like the one in my merloni"splendide"combo

 

[mrlavadoro]

Yes, is very similar to bosch and siemens washers but these washer have the system IRIS and bosch and siemens doesn´t have these system

 

[superelectronic]

Other way around...

...I think Bosch/Siemens bought in the Balay machines and rebadged them as their basic line. The Bosch machines had model numbers starting with WFB. I loved the slightly later version I had for a while - basic but flexible programming and generally very sturdy in construction.

 

The wash water level looks higher than it was on later machines, where it sat well below the rim of the drum.

 

I take it the IRIS system was some kind of water/electricity saving system, in which case the BSH rebadges had it but by another name...something like the "2D Aquaspa" system.

Hello,
This washer isn´t a rebagaded for siemens and bosch becose Bosch-Siemens-balay are merged after to produce these washer

 

[aegokocarat]

I beleive that Balay (B/S/H) made washers for White Knight during the 90's

 

[chris74]

Don't agree...

...that it looks like a BSHG machine. Is Balay a Spanish brand then? I thought it was Turkish.

The water level is nice... Even without having chosen the water plus function... What is the fourth button on the right?

 

[miele4life]

nice machine, good 2 see it still going strong, Balay is indeed a Spanish brand with their factory in Zaragoza, a few facts 2 fill u in on, most of 2days Balays are Bosch designs with their own styling, and BSH's own machines didn't spin anti-clockwise til the 1999 Maxx models and Balay and Siemens versions were launched around the same time. The drum design has been used by other brands like Beko & Whirlpool but it can be seen 2day in their lower-end washer dryers. How about that from me lol

 

[mrlavadoro]

the fourth button on the right is for washing wool
Yes, Balay´s machine are produdted in Zaragoza, but in 2.000 Balay,Siemens and Bosch are merged.

Does the wool wash take more water? On some machines with mechanical timers you can increase the water level by letting them fill on a wool programme then winding the timer on to the desired cottons wash or whatever. Sadly, most of the modern computerised appliances are not so easily fooled!

 

[chris74]

That's what I did...

...on our 70ies Míele front-loader because I desired more water... )

Programme 11

Seems to be very interesting, a super soft wash at 35° C?

 

[mrlavadoro]

I don´t becose that I have never used the key of wool, program 11 believe it is short that it does not use it becose I like the programs long.Yes it is a very delicate wash at 35 °, I almost always wash 35 or 30 degrees.
