As you guess, I have a w828 model: so there is no possible in my Miele a short cycle with prewash. And I would like it specially for Coloured Cottons 40 cycle!!!

Baffles
I couldn't agree more about the baffles. My last two h-axis TL machines have had those terrible low profile plastic ones desined to be removed so you can access the sump. All very useful but in my opinion, hopeless at correctly turning over smaller loads that just flop, like the clothes in the Dyson advertisment. I am on the lookout for a Miele TL here in the UK but they are as rare as hens teeth. That looks like quite a find!!

Hi Favorit,
My W2515 has one options button. Its a mid range variant.
Press it once, get Intensive
Twice get a soak
Three times Get a Prewash (Order May be wrong)
Four times get an Intensive Soak
Five times get an Intensive Prewash
Six Times, no options.
I guess the one pictured could be old enough that short wash with a prewash would be mutally exclusive, but in the last 7-10 years that hasnt been the case.

Hi Nathan,
that W844 is not that older than your W2512 *LOL* (1999)
The W2000 machines had default short main wash, so it has been necessary to have the six-step trick on the option button
Later with the W 3000 series Miele went back to default extended main wash. As a clue spot this manual of the W 3204 currently on sale in UK. the option button still works in the very same way as the W800 novotronic III series

I would think the reason they have never caught on in the UK is the same reason top loaders in general didn't - they don't fit under worktops and now with so many integral appliances being installed, they don't stand a chance. Maybe if UK homes had utility/laundry rooms when automatic machines started to appear on these shores, things might have been different. I understand Bosch have ceased production of their h-axis machine.

Bosch toploaders
Bosch no longer manufactures toploaders in Germany. IIRC they are being manufactured in Spain now. In Germany Bosch sells 8 models of those H-axis toploaders. See link for the model range.

I wish I had access to a range of machines like that! They look fabulous. I wonder, now that production is being moved to Spain, if we will still have the option to buy in the UK at all or if the range will change?
Hoovermatic, check WP UK
They still have one HA TL. IIRC it is made by Polar (now WP) plants in Czech Republic

the challenge
Last week I came back from Ikea with a thicker bed pillow. I threw it in the W794 and ran 3 times the "starch" cycle (actually a single rinse + spin), the first one with a bit of detergent, the last two acted as rinses.
We can't say a 50x80 cm pillow (somewhat 20"x32") is the best load for a perfectly balanced spin ..... I was ready for some noise ( this baby is steady no matter of the balance) ..... anyway all 3 spins were perfectly balanced and thanks to those 1200 rpm some hours later I could sleep with my new pillow
