Not much?!

It's a really cool collection, regardless of size! I love your machines!

Mehhhh I really hate it when I see such nice toploaders, it's so sad that we don't have them in Europe :(
 
My Whirlpool Laundry Center.
Both machines well over 10 years old.

Next on the wish list is either the new Electrolux 4.7 cu.ft.(wave touch)
or Kenmore Elite HE5t matching sets.

"HooverKeymatic":

I don't have one of MY own yet. My apartment/condo has recently gotten renovated and has gotten to the point that now, I plan to make it MY own personal luxury abode. That being said, I don't have a washer or a laundry center of my own yet. But in the meantime, I have access to a:

(01). 2007 Kenmore Elite Oasis Top Loader w/Stainless Steel Tub and a Dual-Action Agitator

AND

(02). 1987 Kenmore Electric Dryer.

I do however, plan to get a washer of my own sometime in the next year or two. And the ones I have my eye on so far are the following:

FRONT LOADERS

(01). Maytag MAH2400AWW* -- $750.00
(02). Whirlpool WFC7500VW* -- $750.00
(03). LG WM3431HW* ** -- $1,600.00
(04). Frigidaire GLTF2940F*** -- $800.00****
(05). Sears Kenmore HE2 -- $900.00****
(06). Sears Kenmore HE2t -- $950.00****

TOP LOADERS

(01). GE Spacemaker 1100HWW* -- $800.00
(02). Avanti W797* -- $400.00*****

* = 24" Model
** = Washer/Dryer Combination
*** = 2009 Consumer Reports Best Buy Rated Model
**** = If I am able to accommodate a Full-Sized Washer into my kitchen
***** = Estimated Retail Price

Comments or Questions, Anyone??? :-)

my washer is the aeg lavamat 76850, very good machine but doesn't use enough water for the rinses
my dryer is the aeg lavatherm 59840, very good and efficient dryer

Hi Targus - nice utility room. Is that the A rated tumble dryer?

BTW - on my AEG if you pressed sensitive it would raise rinse levels to either 1/3 or halfway up the door, depending which rinse it was on :-). Does yours not do that?

aeg rinse water level

the sensitive or extra rinse option doesn't raise the water level a lot, you still can't see it on the door glas
 
AEG Water LEvels

I have an AEG Lavamat Bella. Purchased in 1991, and used very little. Actually only used steadily for one year. Machine was kind of small, so I went back to a Maytag top loader, then an LG front loader. So......the AEG was really only used for sweaters and a occasional regular load or boil wash.

ALl of the rinses fill up to half way up the window.

Back in 1991, paid $1000.00 for this machine, and this was on sale.

I guess I should keep this machine??
 
Ray....

I'd be keeping that machine for sure....

You comment that it is 'kinda small', but it should be able to handle a 5kg load which is at LEAST 2x queen sheets, 1x Queen quilt cover and 4x pillow slips.

Hoover Australia marketed the Electra 4kg machine as capable of washing 8x single bed sheets....
 
One of my newest!

Both the newest because I brought it home 2 days ago and the newest because it's ONLY 2 1/2 years old! The ad read that she paid $650 for it when she bought it BUT I only paid $75!!!!!!!!!!!!! For some reason it was WAY too big of a problem to push "pause" and open the door to add something after the cycle was started. The other "problem" was having to leave the door open when not in use to prevent musty odors. Go figure!!

But, her loss in my gain as I have already ran two loads and it works GREAT!

No pictures handy but mine is a 2007 Kenmore Oasis Agi model with solid lid and Total Care Flex agitator.
 
I own a Zanussi FJS1225W

I own a Zanussi FJS1225W washing machine bought in October 2001

It will be 8 years old in October 2009, pretty chuffed as its still going strong, I know of others who had modern Zanussis and theirs lasted a few months.

Previously to this we owned a Philips Whirlpool washing machine which was a work horse, we had this machine from 1993-2001, it was purchased in March 1993 at radio rentals.

Here is a pic of our Zanussi

I very nearly bought a Zanussi in 2001 from Allders....and then saw the Blomberg Comet/Currys (not sure which)....

My only regret is that we left the Blomberg in the flat when we sold it to move back here....

...but now I am a bit of a Zanussi fan....we have a 6.5kg jetsystem in a rental property and another rebadged Zanussi we use at home (think John Lewis)....
 
@ RobM

Hi RobM,
what about your Jetsystem rinses ?
Can it have such hi level rinses like the Premier Novo ones when "short" & "water +" are selected ?

thanks in advance
