shafted
Why do Americans get shafted on everything? We get the crappy washers. We get the crappy cars. None of our stuff looks as cool and probably doesn't perform as well as anything sold in Europe or elsewhere. Why? Why is this? Our own American companies make this cool stuff, and ship it out, never to sell it here. Why? Ford in Europe and the U.K. is VERY popular and they have stylish, reliable cars. That Brazilian GE washer looks amazing. If you were to compare it to a domestic American GE washer, you would laugh your ass off. It's crap. I'm sick of being shafted with shit goods. Even the stuff foreign companies sell in the U.S. is inferior to the stuff they make at home. WHY!!!!!????? | ||

~I ask the same question about why does everything cost twice the price in the UK as it does in the US? Quality? VAT? Some European countries have a value-added tax. Basically in the USA the government takes about 1/3 of our pay off the top of what is earned [GROSS funds]as income taxes....to fund unpopular/unwanted wars and feed those that don't want to work, but I digress. We are left with NET funds. My understanding is that income taxes in effect are built in to the prices (on the retail level)in many European countries. My Greek realtives came to America and while were visiting bought a German washing machine and shipped it back to Greece. Of course it was *cough* "lightly used" for duty and fee purposes. They paid a NET price with GROSS wages, which made shippings costs appear minimal and the machine was still a great bargain to them. With a VAT system all aspects of the cash economy appear to be taxed. Here other than a small sales tax (usually leadd than 10%)on a state or local level, the underground cash economy doesn't pay taxes. This attracts many skilled blue-collar tradesmen to this country. It is diffcult to compare prices accurately across countries with very different tax and social structures. There are price variatiosn even within this country itself. In my area housing and energy and taxes are high but in Gasget Gary's area those things are relativley less expesnive and food and clothing cost more. (inland land-locked location with no port....all is by truck. [lorry/lorrie (sp)?] In my area wages and job-opportunities are greater as well. Realtive purchasing power ("disposable income")is not always so easy to measure. | ||

IGNIS! The pix-- in the pink section/forum
In this thread we see: Post# 237453-9/20/2007-06:37 ||| dj-gabriele (Bologna (ITALY)) Diomede, have a look at this, the USA actually have something like that! Staber produces a washer that is just like you IGNIS , have a look at their website! I think that it's the only firm that still has this kind of washing machine. Thw drum rotates left and righ and is loaded from the top, opposed to the "usual" top loaders we see around in Europe. Have a look! Anyway I believe that at STABER they're all thieves, the least expensive model costs around 1,300 dollars! That's 1,000 euros for a washer I can buy for 350 euros in any store! Perhaps as a specialty item, this is not a fair comparison! | ||

Oh well, then I too must say that in Italy you can't find a dryer for less than 450 euros, when in UK they start at 250 euros, mean it, I already converted from pound sterling! I think that every nation has its high and low prices for everything. | ||

Mr. Bestcleaning washer, how come none of your Youtube videos have sound? I'd love to know how these washers sound. | ||

hmmmm
TO johnb300m I MUST desagree with you... i think exatelly the opposit... USA have the bestest washers of the world. The most effiient, most reliable, and a lot more.... the brazilian washers only have design....they are cute, and just it! would you like an washer that takes 1 and a half hour to wash a load of clothes? but the avarege cycle has this duration! ok, i know that here in brazil the problem isn't the washers, but the quality of our soap, that only clean the clothes if they stay on soak for some time! besides, the brazilian washers brokes so easily and costs a lot to repair! Maybe I stand corrected. | ||

They are not about to give anything away to feed anyone'
~However, the company is indeed very greedy. ~When it would only cost about 350 dollars in stores. And we know this HOW? And we assume this based on what? Sorry but without your age, first name and gender in your profile, I simple can't put forth the effort to respond to statements such as these which appear to be more emotionally, rather than logically, based. If their sales volume is low, they may require a high mark-up to cover their fixed costs such as overhead, rent, taxes, R&D and their founder's Mercedes or Cadillac SUV. | ||

Smart Washers Hello Rodrigo, Those are smart looking washers, I love the styling of the Electrolux. The agitator on the GE reminds me of the vintage GE washers some members own, very retro looking. Good health and happy washing. David | ||
