My new Electrolux 527 washer and dryer

Solid Soil

Does the solid soil setting use more water in the wash cycle? What is it for? Have you tried it?

Dryer

Do you find that your dryer pushes clothes into the door while tumbling?

On the dryer I wouldn't say that the clothes are pushed to the door area. The clothes do get into that area and the variator vane reaches all the way to the front and back of the drum and moves the clothes away and back into the drum to tumble properly into the airstream. I do know that the 627 has 3 identical vanes like the two shorter ones like my dryer has, so it might be an issue in that model without the variator vane.

It’s been almost a year

How are the Electrolux set? Using lg set more or less?

So far no issues to report on the Electrolux machines. I use them for our clothes since they are faster than the LG machines. With the LG’s I use them primarily for towels and sheets. The washer can be painfully slow since it has to take time to balance and stuff. I can wash close to three loads in the Electrolux washer compared to just the one load in the LG time wise.
No issues at all with the dryer as well. Despite what some may say, and you know who you are, this generation of dryer has been issue free so far. In fact when we move to Florida I plan on getting the same model machines there...I would take them from here but where we are moving there is no natural gas service...it’s all electric. If I had gas service I would take them. Propane is out of the question.

This is splendid news to hear that they are treating you well.
I’m eyeballing Elux too when I either move or my Maxima dies.
I’m not feeling the WP with their sealed tubs and plastic fantastic windows now.

Faster than LG

To make sure we are on the same page, Electrolux is still faster than LG’s turbo wash too?!
Glad you are liking them!
