Dyson video

Neat action, but where's the water? All I could really see was wet clothes tumbling around

"Neat action, but where's the water? All I could really see was wet clothes tumbling around"

That's how modern frontloaders work. Use little water, yet still manage to clean superbly. Some say it's a bad thing but IMO lower water levels are an improvement over older FLs with higher water levels. However as far as rinsing is concerned deep is the only way for me to go (thank goodness my AEG and Miele washers able me to programme that in...)

More Videos

Hi Chris,
Yes I will do another one this time I will do a heavy load of towels on the 85ºC Cottons Cycle. 85 degrees Celsius = 185 degrees Fahrenheit. I have just done a full load of towels in my Whirlpool Top Loader so it might be a couple of days.
All the best.
Hugh.

can u send it to me again pleseto [email protected]

 

[shanonabc]

Yeah could u puh-leeeeeeze do more videos.

I would have expected the wash action to be more rough and the clothes would actually tumble. Is that a duvet or blanket or something along those lines? It looks like it mainly turns the clothes horizontally.

Is it your CR01 or what?

 

[spiraclean]

Hi Shanon,
yes it's my Dyson CR01 Memory. I will organise another video, I tried the other day but I forgot that the washer was on and I missed the contra rotation part of the wash cycle.
All the best.
Hugh.

That is the first time I have seen a Dyson in action with laundry in it. In many of the stores they have them working on empty for some reason. Do the clothes get very tangled particularly duvet covers and sheets etc 'cos from the look if that video, the laundry seems to be corkscrewing and getting very twisted?

 

[spiraclean]

Hi Hoovermatic,
The Dyson does not tangle at all and is very gentle on the laundry. It does not matter if you are washing large items or small or a mixture of diferent sized articles nothing tangles.
All the best.
Hugh.

Question

Hugh,

You said something very interesting:"and I missed the contra rotation part of the wash cycle". Does that mean it doesn't do the contrarotation during the whole cycle?

Louis

 

[Acerone]

From the Video it looks like the contra rotation is done only in the wash cycle.

 

[shanonabc]

OH MY FUDGE

Us Australians should be able to enjoy the Dyson CrontraRotator from next year!

 

[Acerone]

Shanon,

What makes you think that? I thought it was over for the washer for good. Did you hear or read it was coming to the US?

 

[shanonabc]

I rang Dyson Aus & THEY SAID

 

[Acerone]

Thanks... Did they say anything about the USA getting it also?

A Big Thank You

Hi Allen,
A big thank you once more for hosting the video download. I really appreciate your help in making the file available to everyone.

All the best.

Contra Rotation

Hi Louis & Chris,
Yes the Dyson only contra rotates during the beginning and the end of the wash cycle, at all other times the drums lock together and rotate as one.

All the best.

Re: Dyson Info:

Hi! Hugh, thank you so very much for sharing your wonderful knowledge of info about your great looking Dyson Washer. It is my most favorite Colors for the Accent of the Purple and Yellow and I think that they go together quite well. It is too bad that the production had to be stopped, due to interest being down, but it is quite a high price to think about paying for even this sofistacated Washer and the idea of how it Washes the Laundry, without getting tangled. That is what is so amazing about the Dual-Rotation Tumbling at the same time of 1/2 of the Tub in opposite directions all at once, then reversing the Rotation. Keep up the wonderful sharing of your great "UK" Laundry Appliances, it is always great to learn about other areas production ideas and how they operate.

Peace and Happy Dyson Washing, Steve
