Zanussi FL882

isn't this the machine that the Tricity Bendix AW851 was based on, with the 2 buttons and pull out dial

Did it clean well? Also, when was it built?

Thanks!

I think the Delta was the basic machine from when the Nexus badged machines first came out, with white control panels with coloured stripes on the option buttons.

Think it was something like:

Delta (base model)
Nexus (a few more options & faster spin)
Quick 'n' Clean (variable soil control)
Jetsystem (high spec)

There were higher spec Directa machines aswell, as i found out yesterday.

No me neither lol - i thought id do abit of in-filling whilst we waited.

Ice cream for the interval anyone?

FL1012...

Yes i think thats how it went.However, Zanussi released a very basic Nexus machine. It spun at 800rpm and One button.

Ah ok, cheers.

I know they later dropped the Nexus and Delta and went to an Aquacycle, Quick N Clean & Jetsystem Excel line up. A Sensorcycle also appeared, possibly replacing the Delta as a base model?

I think the Sensor cycle was a version of the AquaCycle (I am not certain).

It did have 'Sensorcycle' written in the same place as where 'Aquacycle', 'Jetsystem' etc were written though, which made me think it was like a specification level all of its own.

hooverkeymatic · Aug 8, 2009

It could be.It still spun at 1000-1200rpm and took a capacity of 4.5-5kg so you may be right.

Hooverkeymatic: your right they did a 1000 and 1200rpm

Auto half load was its key feature and looked like the 1000rpm jetsystems from 93/94 heres a pic!

There were on the same sort of level as the Aquacycles.
