One of my washers (video clips, NO suds)

[fredriksam]

In the house i,m living in with my girlfriend we have 2 bathrooms. In one of the bathrooms we have a washing machine. A Siemens. Before the Siemens machine we had an Beko that i was given for free. Not a good machine i can tell. The weight come loose and destroyed the plastic tub. The Siemens is much better. Anyway i have filmed the machine in 2 rinses and 2 spins.

By the way, NO suds in these clips.

Here is the first rinse clip. Enjoy

And yeah, now its time for the first spin clip. Sadly the machine made alot of noise in this clip. Nevermind, it does that sometimes.

The cycle was on 40 celsius, cotton. theres one button for rinse and one for starting the machine. You could also change the spin speed. We most always have it at 1000 rpm which is highest on this machine.

By the way, here is the second spin clip. Notice theres some unbalance the first time the machine begins it re-spin mode. Only that yellow towel in the machine was mine. LOL.

And here for you... My girlfriend herself. We were throwing a party and had invited some people over. We have this tradition in Sweden "midsommar". We eat new potatoes and drink a lot and having generally fun. Hope you all like the photo.

Thank you for making and sharing the videos. I noticed almost no suds in the first Siemens rinse. Was that the first rinse after the wash? Does it spin after the wash? The Whirlpool had more suds in the first rinse. Does it not spin after the wash?

Very provocative picture of your girlfriend. Lucky man. Be careful that you don't lose her to someone seeing her picture on the internet!

So I see the new potatoes, mustard, sour cream maybe and then to the right in the blue bowl, smoked salmon or pickled ginger? What else do you have to eat with them? I love potatoes and rice and pasta and bread and it's beginning to look like they love me too much to ever leave. I am very much in favor of a holiday where potatoes are eaten.

Does everyone in Sweden learn English? Your language skills are very good. In our public education system, schools have generally not offered foreign language courses until high school, but that is changing because we are not as bilingual as so many Europeans are. I could never discuss washing machines in the languages of our European members like all of you do in English. It is amazing to me.

It was the 2 last rinses on the machine. The machine spins between rinses. If i press the "add more water" button the machine sticks in some rinses. I have heard i,m not the only one that has that happened to.

About the whirlpool video, the machine spins after every rinse. It even spins before rinsing, but the detergent we have at the job is making to much suds sometimes. Even in the last rinse it has happened theres still suds. And boy, has this machine sudslocked sometimes? You bet! That NEVER happened with our hoover newwave.

My girlfriend is very cute and she loves me very much. She is not very interrested in washing machines but that is ok. She knows i,m good at handling these machines.

I like Potatoes too. In Sweden we have this tradition called "midsommar" when we eat Herring and new potatoes, some sour milk, salmon, eggs with shrimps. Then (often times) theres alcohol drinks involved. At last, there is often a strawberry cake that is served after dinner. I top mine with some chocolate.

Here in Sweden we often speak english if theres tourists that speak in english and want to ask us something. We learn english and german in school and you can go "extra" to learn more if you want. I must say i rarely speaks about washing machines with other people. They are not very interrested in it.

Lol i found i did a little mistake when loading the videos. The spins should be in this order: spin 02, spin 01. It was the last spin. The machine first spin at 700 rpm, stops and then spins at 1000 rpm. The last spin (01) was the one with that loud sound.

Hey, at my school they have a Bauknecht. Always when I wash the shirts from the soccer or vollyball team there are always to many suds. Once a colleague of physical education washed a load without me and when the machine went into her first spin the suds came out of soapdispenser. He was so cute with his sudsy pants. I think it because the machine uses to less water and so the product oversuds. And with the poor rinsing performance the suds a unbreakable. But last week we changed the machine. We have no an old miele out of someone's house, and no sudslock any more.
