I managed to take a picture of the Simpson version so you can all have a closer look. |

I think the tub looks really nice. Only thing that I could fault about the Simpson version is that some Chrome would be nice - my Fluid Drive is full of Chrome. |

Honestly... They do have elegant styling like all Electrolux machines... But I am not overly impressed with it... |

Interesting concept for lowering water usage in the wash cycle...sort of borrowed from the GE mini-basket. An almost solid tub with just a few holes to let a small amount of water escape which is recirculated back into the tub. It doesn't look like it has any holes in the bottom of the tub. I wonder how it does in sand disposal.

So basically what we have here is a quasi solid tub washer, with load sensing, recirculating water and a series of spray rinses to save water. Exactly the sort of top loading washing machine I and others spoke about in the posting about making top loading washers that would be water efficient enough to satisify US mandates. Would be interesting to see if the unit can meet Energy Star guidelines. |
