Bath Water; Pool Water: Samsung Explains Wash Temps

whats funny is their not "transitioning" people into these new H-2-Low water levels and dubbed down temps....theres no stepped phasing, just a JOLT into the new way of washing.....

for a while with a car, you has a cassette player, then the addition of the Cassette/CD in one unit, allowing people to switch gradually as cars changed into CD's only!.....

these first generation of HE machines should be offering both a HE and Normal operation, like what Speed Queen has done, theres a traditional Normal cycle, and with a flip of a switch theres a Normal ECO cycle.....

their making machines efficient, but not effective.....I mean hell, we can't even get the whole world on a non phosphate detergent system, so were only polluting half of the world, as if the water doesn't mix....

although I think were going to maybe see a Hybrid machines eventually show up...

remember the energy crisis of the 70's, car manufacturers quickly jumped on 4 cylinders, great mileage, no power.....not a great turnover for a company, and this may very well turn true for washing machines, efficient, but not effective, somehow their going to have to figure a way to Turbocharge these machines....

cant count how many machines I have sold lately to people wanting to return to a traditional water using machine....used appliance places are becoming very popular lately....

Checkrate/Likes I've been reading Samsung washer manuals and chuckled out loud at their explanation of automatic temperature-controlled wash temps. You can almost see the bulb light up over someone's head in Technical Writing, can't you? At least they provide the work-around: Use cycles other than Normal or Heavy Duty to get actual hot water.

Checkrate/Likes Oh brother!!! If Heavy Duty is supposed to be for extra dirty stuff, attempting to clean with tepid hot water. Ugh.

Checkrate/Likes *Heavy duty?* Heavy duty? Why is the water dumbed down for the heavy duty cycle? I understand if its the normal cycle but heavy duty? Really? Even my WP duet gives a hot wash if hot is selected on heavy duty with no dumbing down.....So is the cycle longer since its dumbed down?

Checkrate/Likes I posted about this several months ago. I love how the manual says that new washers must reduce the energy usage at first priority. I always though washing clothes was a washer's first priority. Hm. I read that LG has the same thing happening on Normal and Heavy Duty for the same (Energy Star) reasons.

Checkrate/Likes 6 I want a T-shirt that says, "But This Is Normal, Not A Problem."

Checkrate/Likes >At least they provide the work-around: Use cycles other than Normal or Heavy Duty to get actual hot water. Actually, I'd say they don't provide THE work-around. They provide A work-around. Another work-around occurs to me: use a vintage machine that does not have dumbed down water temperatures on any cycle. LOL

Checkrate/Likes I just love the comfortable temperature in a pool analogy. I have no idea what their idea of a comfortable temperature is, but it seems like about 80 degrees is a common pool temperature, which would mean "warm" is really technically "cold".

Checkrate/Likes *Nice Pool Temperatures?* Try about 85�F :P Anything colder feels frigid, at least to the human body. Good to see Samsung are clarifying the forever "Clear as Mud" designators of HOT, Hot, "Hot," WARM, Warm, "Warm," Cool, "Cool," Cold and so on :D *Yes, some of the above is complete stupidity. But so are these labels in 2015, when it comes to ACCURATELY describing what the temperature actually is.
