Flavor of the month.

 

 

These are my "weekly" drivers... for this month anyway.  

 

From Left: a 2009 Kenmore He5T Steam washer, a Whirlpool Calypso, a Maytag Neptune 5500, a Fisher & Paykel Intuitive Eco (agitator) washer and a 1955 Frigidaire Unimatic!

 

I have 3 gas dryers connected for the drying duties as well: a Maytag DG808, a Kitchenaid dryer (w/window) and a Maytag 9900.

My 2012 Zanussi Jetsystem is used nearly everyday with full loads and has been great. Nearly a year old.

Last mid-September, bought and still using a pair of unusually pristine looking Maytags LA482 LDE482 -not fancy, but I'm happy with the results...but just now beginning to see why people chose more than one machine.

Miele W1986 purchased in 2003. Things I like about it:

Cleans anything I put into it and does it fast. Normal cottons cycle takes 41 minutes

I can extend the cycle times to get a longer Euro type wash

It can be programmed. I have it programmed for water plus which gives me a bit of extra water in the wash, and much more water in the rinses.

It can do an 190F wash in 52 minutes

It senses the load size and reduces the cycle time for small loads.

Left side of control panel. Don't know why the lines are blurred on the program selector in the picture but they are straight on the machine.

Good rinses:

Here is the entire machine a bit fuzzy but you get the idea.

The first picture says left side of control panel. Don't know what drugs I am taking but that's the right side not the left.

Funny, the temps on Miele never do get below 30°C except on cold and delicates/woolens. would use 105°F anyway, 120°F for more soiled normal clothing or less soild sheets and towels, 140°F towels and bedding, 190°F rugs, pillows and conforters.
Would like to see it doing a cycle. How much rinses is it doing?

1972 Maytag 806. I have family staying with me for 6 months so we are averaging 3 loads a day.

1996 DD Whirlpool

I love it!  Super reliable and would wash the evil out of  Satan's cape.  Only repair to date is when Katie's huge bathrobe got twisted around the auger and broke the dogs.

My daily driver is a 2005 Maytag Ensignia top load washer. Though it has had lots of repairs and I cant always count on it lasting for more than a few years without problems I can always count on it to get everything clean! I call it a piece of junk sometimes now but I remember when it used to have all the original parts it would often be run constantly during the day from about mid 2009 until about November of 2011 when everyone decided to move back home (to my house) from Alberta until they got there own places.

Its really too bad that the norge-tags had reliability issues with the transmissions and bearings because they perform great otherwise! And I always loved the sleek designs for the control panel's on norge-tags, in fact the look of the washer and the capacity were the key selling points for me!

The only other reason is that it was a newer version of the Crosley (Norge) we were replacing. even though I knew Maytag washers had reliability issues in the early 2000's I still wanted it. I really wish I had gotten the matching dryer with it when I bought it....
