The New Drawer Washing Machine from Reason!!!

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

Help Support :

I thought the same thing as dyson: it's probably a not just a button but also a dial - similar to what Miele uses for the Navitronic.

I wonder about the spin cycle. It's indeed a large drum but there does not seem to be an outer tub with shock absorbers. How does is handle off-balance loads? I guess the washer has to be very heavy, since it's not a solid-mount design. I also assume (hope) it still lets you dose detergent and softener manually - for those who use different additives for different cycles.

BTW: the space between drum and outer tub seems very small - so where is the lid? Inside the drum?

you' re right !
More : when pulled out,the drum is connected with the drawer door. If this connection is permanent I bet the drawer crashes at the first slightly imbalanced spin

So the drum should have 2 Titan-like pins that work this way :
DRAWER OPEN - the outer pin catches drawer/door sys while back pin free.
DRAWER CLOSED - the inner pin ins connected with the shaft/pulley sys while outer pin is disconnected

It doesn't seem such a reliable design.
I guess a design with the whole [tub + motor + suspension] mounted on the drawer would be much more solid.
I' d like to read ThomasOrtega's opinion about this crazy machine

One touch programming.I hope it'll be i.pod-like as Dyson2drums and Alex say.
Otherwise I'd stay away from an extreme "6th-sense"(whirlpoolically speaking)selfprogramming machine
My machine has a "mixed fabrics" (now is called "automatic") that SHOULD "understand" if the load is mosly cottons or mostly perm press and behave consequently.
It relies on fabrics absorption : cotton SHOULD absorb more water than poly. But this isn't ever true
Thick polies (as fleece and pile) get heavy when wet.
Lightweight cottons (AC shirts) absorb very little.
So the machine swaps fabric and program : poly not cooled down and fully spun, cotton cooled down and intermittently spun
Miele knew it as they locked spin @ 900rpm in both cases and temp @ 40°C/105°F to avoid disasters *LOL*
Some years ago AEG Lavamats introduced a unique perma/cotton program. Later they went back with perma prog. and cotton progr

TCALSS i never use "Mixed load" . I run them on perma press
