...ASEA.... ...and given the detergent drawer is on the right hand side, this is an ASEA design, not an ASKO...which is a good thing. The ASKO/ASEA's of that age are pretty indestuctible provided the timer is working properly. If you set it to say programme 3, it should advance to the start in about 15-30seconds with only a few light 'click click click'. It should sound smooth as it advances not as if it is 'grinding' internally. My mother has only just replaced her ASEA Cylinda 12000 (1989 outer door, 1200 spin) and the chap she gave it to fixed the 'dribble' from the detergent drawer (small split in the hose to the fabric conditioner dispenser) but the old girls timer is rough and seems to take forever to engage the cycle...once there, no problems though.... ...and they sound lovely just as they start too....very spacey... |

After seeing Mikes in action its far more flexible than Miele's lot in terms of programming for those who like the ultimate in flexibility with water levels wash/rinse actions and spin speeds. and the Askos are just far more entertaining IMHO with the cabinet seperate from the tub. Also Mieles soap dispenser is not exaclty that well thought out either with lots of places dirt mould and detergent/softener deposits can settle whereas the Asko's are extremely self cleaning and low maintainance, Impressed enough to want one!

Wow targus! You live nearby. I live in Ardooie! (Roeselare) I personally think that both ASKO and MIELE are great washers. The asko is indeed more flexible and spins faster! The Miele is has offcours more 'standing' but they are both good washers. |
