Hey all Glad you all like :) I wont tell ya exactly what its costing me but suffice to say its under £300 :)- at one stage the retail price was bout £530!!. Only slight quibble I have is the lack of a 50 deg cotton option- as Jon said towels etc will just have to be 60!.- it does have an option for 4.5kg cotton @ 60 with A wash in 45 mins tho-sounds interesting,im guessing it has an extra intensive action??. Steve- as Louis says it is indeed standard 24"/60cm width-also its only 60cm deep as well, this point is essential for where it lives;). I can see I may have to figure how to post videos of this lol!! Seamus Lastly.... Carl- The Miele was an excellent choice so dont worry lol :)- its far more likely to be around in 2026 than this is!. With regard to looks tho I think the Electrolux wipes the floor with it (Ducks and runs VERY VERY quickly from Jon!!!!) You had me in stitches as well- I wont ask if you were "under the infulence" of anything when you came up with that pmpl! |

Well the ZWF1440 still had 50*c one thing I was very grateful for. Mums LG is a pain for not having one of my favourite temps. Use it for light t-shirts, light cottons, synthetics. I dont know what progs we all tend to use but i find washing t-shirts on anything other than 50 and 40 synthetics ruins them. I only use the 40*c Cottons for Jeans, socks and underwear etc etc. Nick |

Don’t worry, Seamus – I wasn’t under the influence of anything. :-) I can’t drink, I certainly don’t take drugs and I am not mad. :-) Carl |

Hey Rob :-) Its actually some sort of random reflection lol!!!! Thanks for all the favourable comments guys I think it was the best choice I could have made for the money ;) Other than the lack of a 50 prog there is one other thing that will annoy the crap out of me at 1st tho!- the ZWF1217w has the instant release type door and this has the 2-3 min delay :(. Still at least it has the cool red door locked warning light above the handle :) Seamus |

Oh dear, I could have said it was a nice machine! LOL. I was a bit in a hurry. I love the looks of it. The door handle reminds me of the old Constructa machines. Personally I never use a 50*C programme, if things can handle 50*C, they most likely will handle 60*C too. The delay of the door release would annoy me too. Enjoy your machine! |

if i may add 2 the wonderin about the rinse button. its similar to my aeg's Rinse + button and the super rinse button on zanussi's it adds 2 rinses...to cottons and 1 to synthetics. though on my AEG it increases water levels too..not sure about this one though...though it'd be really gr8 if it did!!
