New Models

Hi Twodrums, The SLQ & TLSWP heat Pump Dryer are being introduced with the UK / Ireland in mind, it is available here from October,so the dealers have all the latest photos / info etc from the product training workshops, The V-zug UK websites are being updated as we speak, the exclusive distributor responsible for bringing V-Zug to the UK/Ireland/Europe are LSY UK, link included, they also promote the GE & GE Monogram appliances, a fantastic range of appliances for the serious appliance officionado etc...love the coloured fusion food centres & the GE Monogram rangecookers look like they can handle anything!!!

Hi James, I`ll see what I can do!!! you`re not bored of the Miele`s yet are you???

Toggs & TwoDrums - Structural Distortion..Hhmmmm, I think the way this is built, that issue has been worked out!!!like you say though interesting to see the differences in manufacturers, its also to do with how the machine operates as well, the functionality of the programmes is the biggest winner or loser these days!!!

Eddy, I`ll check the shipping costs!!!...lol, you have enough space now so no excuse there!!!

Paul, I`m awaiting the programme sequencing charts, (yes more excell spreadsheets) I think you like these!!!

Jon, get sorted with the studies, then the degree, then the Job and voila..I`ll keep my order book open for you!!!

Hey Peter, yes arent they big baffles, it does give the drum a new look, looks very commercial, alas no combo yet, but if they did you can bet it would be the best!!!

Hi Ritchie, glad you like them, I also fell in love with them the first time louis intriduced us to them, "Cheatin on Mieles"...how could you!!!...Lol

Hi Alan, yes it will remain to be seen how they sell, lots if its anything to do with me, the sales directors of LSY where completely thrown when I started to talk about them and all I knew of them in the first sales meeting, then when I showed them the links to Louis`s pics and youtube vids they nearly felly off their chairs!!! just goes to show nothing is exclusive in Cyberspace!!!

Zugs!!!

Hi Louis, well never thought this day would come, talk about living the dream!!! and all credit to you for getting us all interested in these machines as well, I think Jon Jetcone is booking his ticket as we speak!!!...Lol

The Sibir and Gehrig machines look great, for one country they do have a great diversity of laundry brands etc, the Sibir WA6100 range look like they are made by Gorenje, who also make the lower priced SMEG laundry machines!!!, who makes what these days, hard to keep up!!

Many thanks for the pic links, cant wait to see them in person, the Zug semi-automatic is my favourite with all those dials & gauges, looks like it should be in a boiler room!!!What is your favourite "Classic Zug"

Hi Brent,yes quite a classic, I wonder if the younger generation of AW club will rate it in years to come as we do say the Bendix Combo`s etc???

Innovation Wet Clean - Its the New Dry Clean...!!!

The Zug Innovation Wet Clean programme is very interesting, as Laundress says it is the new buzzword in commercial laundry sectors, its very simple in operation, uses cool water, 20d on the official Zug programme, and gentley cradle rocks the clothes, back & forth, whilst the spray jet showers a fine mist of water / detergent solution onto the clothes, so very little water usage, less agitation, so no shrinking / felting as can happen on other programmes...it doesnt do away with dry cleaning completly but for more robust items then this type of home cleaning I think will be a real boom!!!

Louis, looking forward to getting the vids myself, they are being installed in the showroom for use shortly, and who knows, the MaytAsko`s are gettin on a bit now, I`ll have to ask about a "Display Price"...Lol
 
Northern Ireland Delivery

Hi Mike,
Amazing looking machines and a great 8Kg capacity too. Do you deliver to County Down Northern Ireland? I would certainly consider the Adora SLQ, I just love the styling and the Honeycomb Drum is amazing.

Mike

So glad that this all happened and more Europeans than the Swiss can experience these wonderful machines.

It's indeed hard to keep up, the Swiss sure know how to confuse us. I've seen Zanker machines labelled as Electrolux long before Electrolux took over Zanker etc. The Sibir budget line looks indeed like they're being made by Gorenje. And then Gehrig doesn't have that line. And Zug uses Bauknecht for their budget line. I bet the Swiss do it all to confuse us! LOL

My favourite vintage machine is the machine on the right, the first fully automatic Zug Unimatic (what else LOL). Here's a close up of the timer.
 
Zug Super Unimatic!!!

Hi louis , I thought that might be your favourite!!! looks such a sturdy machine with the solid steel lid etc,

David, for an order I`ll consider personal delivery anywhere!!!p.s they will be coming to your area shortly, I believe!!!

Jon jetcone, glad you like, now you WILL have to book that ticket!!!

LATEST: Product Update
I got it wrong on the "Holes in the Hallowed Drum" the correct number is 14,500...(yes even more!!!) apparently the man at the factory had a teabreak before he finished etc, and hadnt counted the baffles!!!
 
Hi Mike

Ummmm..

Can you please tell/check if the zug baffles have holes in them to shower water over the clothes like usual drum lifters or has it got identations/prints of holes but not holes.

Thanks for all the info you have provided so far!
 
Any idea when these machines will be available in the Netherlands? Suddenly I need a new dryer!
 
Re-styled....!!!

Hey Louis, looks like we book our tickets for next Feb and meet up there!!! The new distribution centre looks stunning as a building, I`m sure it all reflects the V-ZUG philosophy...if my translation is right it reads:

"
The exhibition in ZUGORAMA in the second half of 2008 will be completely rebuilt. The construction work will start Monday, 15th September 2008 and last until Friday, 9th January 2009. During this rebuilding phase there will be for our customers in ZUGORAMA a temporary exhibition with a reduced range in the 1st Floor available.

From 12th January to 29th January 2009 the exhibition will remain closed. We look forward to welcoming you from 30th January 2009 in the newly designed exhibition hall. "

See you there, Mike
 
Personal Delivery

Hi Mike,
Now that's an offer we don't hear every day!
I will have to work on Mother for a while and ease her into the idea of another machine LOL. Although its my money I could be in for a lot of earache if she found out the price, especially as my Miele W3985WPS is not even one year old yet.

I will be in touch.

David
 
Mike,

Your translation is right indeed.

I noticed you found the new logo too. Isn't Robert a sweety for adding it?

I would love to go to Switzerland again but I would prefer that in the summer. I'd love to go back to Davos again and visit the Zugorama on the way home.

Enjoy your weekend!

Louis
