527 and 627, door
Well, on the Electrolux web site for USA, there's no mention of being able to reverse the door, or change how it swings. Last time I looked at Elux washers (must have been at Lowe's), I didn't see how the door could be reversed...
Also, to get the "steam" function, one needs to spend about $200 more, and there's not indication that it heats the water. Although I'm guessing that if it produces steam some of the water must be getting heated to boiling. Not sure how that works.
Update: I see that the TOL 627 has a Sanitize function, so it must be getting the water pretty hot (I'm guessing 150F, maybe higher). It also has a "whitest whites" function which may also heat the water above 120F.
Maybe I'll just move one of the Miele machines out of the workshop and put that in the laundry closet. I could move the 7500 to the workshop for when I have large loads that require its increased capacity over the Miele. I have two 1025's and one 1918. I know the 1918 works. Not sure about the 1025's. And I have an old Frigidaire front loader. No heater, of course.
