New LG Twin Washer: Two Loads At Once!

Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Help Support :

ACK! I checked into AW.org to turn my brain off while sipping my coffee before starting on this evening's 'to do' list. INSTEAD, I have hours of reading, all of which is so much more interesting than my chores....

Pedestal mini-washer??? Oh, hell no! My arthritis on top of an already bad back has made the Prime Directive in my new place to be that there is NO, as in ZERO, bending & stooping.... zilch, zip, nada, nic, niente, nichts...get the picture? Exceptions are limited to activities I can discuss only in the Dirty Laundry forum. Actually, what I want to know is if there are any PEDESTALS that can be stacked, so I can have a FL high enough for me to reach comfortably.

How does increasing washer capacity improve throughput? At least with old fashioned TL's dryers take longer than washers. My mom has a Kenmore series 80 with a gas dryer more than large enough to hold a full Kenmore load. During extended family gatherings (think winter clothing, towels, and baby clothes) I'd have the first load in the dryer, 3/4 done. The second load would be sitting in a basket, waiting for the dryer, and I'd be starting to load the Kenmore with a third!

No, thank you. My concern is drying capacity. I want LG's 4.3 cu. ft. washer/dryer combo, a separate dryer, and a heated drying rack. That's my realistic choice. My fantasy is a set of stacked Neptunes with a separate dryer. In both cases I'll have either a twin tub or that mini TL (w/1200 r.p.m. spin) ThomasOrtega posted a while back as back-up.

After seeing the Modern Maid Cook-'n-Clean, I want one. I'd rarely use the bottom oven anyway, so I'd gain a cabinet to store stuff I rarely use. But really, I'd prefer either a dishwasher installed like a wall oven or a counter-top model..... all to avoid non-recreational stooping.

Was Modern Maid affiliated with another brand? I've never heard of the company, but I swear I've seen a logo with the same font and symbol before.... Magic Chef, maybe?

Yes, someone here posted about a wall-mounted washer. I looked it up; several models were available. IIRC, they were aimed at the south American market. Anyone recall that?

Thank you. The Portuguese is what triggered the idea of South America.

I only visited Brazil once, almost 15 years ago. It was wonderful for a variety of reasons, but were I to go back now, I'd definitely spend more time looking at the "electrodomesticos". :-)

A definitive would-buy

I'm very unhappy to say that these twin-washers won't come to Europe, as LG told me via e-mail.

The combination range/oven/dishwasher is originally an Italian invention from "Candy"... It is called "Trio".
