Guys, I've been waiting to tell this news since about 1 year ago but I had to keep my mouth shut.
Now it's official. Last Friday Electrolux launched their brand new washer/dryer combo here in Brazil.
Now some things that will make you curious about it.
1) it's a washer/dryer combo (not a stacked dryer) the clothes dry in the same drum.
2) High efficiency, but with an agitator (it means WATER AND DECENT RINSES!)
3) The drying is not condensed, but exausted. Perfect for those who don't need condenser dryers. (and it dries fast)
4) MUCH cheaper than Whirlpool Vantage, Cabrio, LG TUrbodrum, Panasonic Acquabeat, etc... AND IT REALLY DRIES)
5) 100% designed and produced in Brazil. (The Wateraid HE technology was launched in Australia years ago for marketing tests and it worked ok)
6) Probably, this will be the only agitator washer that will be on the american market in a few years.
7) It can be used like any other standard top loader, no need to worry about HE detergents or door seals/smells or clothes being shreded by washers that look like a giant blender.
8) the tub is HUGE! (Much bigger than Cabrio or standard Whirlpool or GE)
9) One of the versions (TOL) will have an internal tank to save water (Suds saver) and will be useful to make the machine much heavier for the ultra high spin speed. Up to now, it's the fastest spin ever used in a top loader, and being much heavier than a Frigidaire Unimatic, it will NEVER jump or walk.
Finally, It's going to be launched SOON in the U.S.
More news at www.electrolux.com.br as soon as they update the website with the new family of top loader washers.
As soon as i get authorization to post pictures from it, I'll do it. Otherwise I'll post only website pictures when the machine appears there (before the end of this week)
