These machines do look stunning. It's such a shame about the welded outer tub, though, which is a deal breaker as far as I'm concerned. Any chance of uploading a video of the final spin cycle? | ||

My parents have the L75470 washer!
I wanted them to get another with a jet like the AEG we had previous to it but funds wouldn't allow it! I like the sensing how it can dramatically reduce cycle length. The spin is extremely similar to my lg f1402fds6! I've taken a pic but for some reason my new iPhone won't let me upload it! Darren | ||

Protex
Congratulations Steve, looks great stacked, the thick stacking tray really works well...
The Heat Pump dryer works very differently from condenser models, it doesnt use heat, just builds up residual heat and the programme finishes... The ones I`ve used are much quicker in time to complete the drying programme than condensers, the heat pump works by sucking the moisture out of the clothes via the pump, as the air is re-circulated the air takes on temperature, they seem to work the opposite to other dryers ie, they start cold and the air warms towards the end of the cycle... You may have to alter your way of drying, I used a lot of mixed cotton duvets, sheets etc...after the wash-ins or visitors I could have 6+ king size bed sets to wash & dry, with the MaytAsko I would spin them all at max extract (1600) then pop them in the condenser dryer for 20 mins to de-crease & dry.... So did the same with the heat pump, only thing was there was no heat to drop the creases and so little moisture they where dry in little time BUT with loads of creases....I ended up spinning at a much lower spin to prevent excess creasing, leaving them wetter but it gave the Heat Pump a chance to warm the air up and it was still cheaper to run than a normal condenser!! Let us know how you get on!! | ||

Dryer Drum
The Zug Heat Pump dryer has a normal rotating drum and back panel, although it has a solid door so you wouldnt be able to tell working!!
The stationary back panel is used on US dryers, as everything seems to be on the change at the moment not sure if any other dryers work the same here... Would you take a pic of both drum door filter and the heat Pump filters down below please?? Do you have the condensate water pumped to a drain?? Steve are you in Sydney or from Sydney and in an other part of Aus?? | ||

Protex
Lol, I did wonder, just assumed from your profile it was us, but then noticed the 13amp Brit plug and noted that AEG Aus didnt have these models on their site...
Similar style filter set up as Zug, they do collect very fine dust well, I do find you need to keep all the area around the dryer and intakes vacuum cleaned, also if any residues from powder / softener is left in clothes it get stuck on that Heat Pump filter... Is there no black sponge filter on the Heat Pump filter??, it looks like it is just another fine nylon almost see-thru filter?? | ||

Whirlpool corp EU dryers used to have the stationay back plate with the heating element mounted to the back plate :-) The stationary back is normal on the protex dryers :-) Tom :-) | ||
