Nice machine! I do love the front fill.
The superquick programme is very good. You get 2 deep rinses and you can press extra rinse too. It's a little noisier than my 2008 Zanussi essential ZWF12070G1. I still find the filter in the drum the weirdest thing!! funky too. As has been said hope it is sturdy enough not to come out that could cause a world of hurt! Darren |

Does it have a split or a welded tub? |

I believe I've already congratulated you for your new washer... you're the 1 with the AEG and the Indesit aren't you?
Nice to see that Zanussi changed the design of their paddles... and I really love that filter system accessible from inside the machine... less mess outside to clean it! However, let's hope you never gonna have a clogged filter with a full load of clothes in the washer! As usual Zanussi disappoints me in the way they organise their options... e.g. spin speed: unless there's is an ulterior way to select a different spin speed between 900 and 1600rpm which is not evident to me... it seems a bit daft to build a 1600rpm machine which lets you select only 2 slower spins... less than half the speed and only 200rpm apart between them! They could have balance things up a little more... and possibly included another spin option... even something like 800 -> 1200 -> 1600 would have made more sense! The lack of interim temperatures like 50 or 70 degrees would be enough to put me off with a vengeance, but it seems to be a frequent occurrence nowadays with most manufacturers... so I'm starting to come to terms with that. The rest of the control panel seems fairly intuitive. A nice machine overall. Bye now ;-) |

Vry nice, Must admit been noseying at these for a while with potential to have one if i need as a modern daily machine but think i have talked myself out of it for now.
Think Currys have reduced the price of them to £220 in the January sales too which is a fair consideration as a pro to maybe having one. I dunno. :) |

Congratulations AEG03 on your new Zanussi, I do like the sleeker taller look, with the sump outlet not being visible....my sisters got the washer dryer version and loves it...I would love Zanussi to go back to the larger induction motors, with every model release there motors seem to go louder and schreechier in sound...
I suppose it costs less to produce one moulded drum and pump unit than seperates with large manufacturing numbers, I looked at these the other day and did wonder whatever they where thinking, if you dont push that filter in sump fully home or by whatever reason it comes loose then imagine what damage it would do to the tub (we see what the effects of simple bra wires can do) also the snap shut plastic connector cover engages into metal pressure clips which is good, BUT look at those three flimsey plastic retainers at the back that holds it in place, with the ammount of turbulent force that say washing 7kg of towels would have bashing against it I do hope its robust enough to withstand the forces... So get washing and let us know how you like it, Cheers, Mike |
