Well its here, in my house. Its the most fantastic washing machine ever i swear to god. It has a lot of cycles and a Quick cycle that allows you to set the tempreture up to 60*! It arrived this morning and i have done three loads so far. But the best thing about it, it only does 2 rinses but these rinses are DEEP i mean we are talking Hoover Logic water levels on both rinses. I couldn't believe my eyes. This washing machine does a fantastic job on washing because even tho the quick cycle is supposed to be only 32 minutes, it still washes clothes fantastically clean with a nice long 850 rpm spin at the end. Here are a few pics of the machine doing its thing. I will upload some video as soon as i can. Youtube is quite slow at uploading videos. Matt

VIDEO
Heres a video of it washing mixed colors at 40* on Daily Mixed, the entire cycle took about 1 hour, not bad. It makes such a nice smooth motor noise as it tumbles and the spin revving up is divine. When it reches final spin it goes straight up to the set spin speed, no messing about going up in stages. Love this machine. Keep and eye on my YouTube proifle coz more videos are coming. matt CLICK HERE TO GO TO mattywashboy's LINK | ||

Looks visually similar in design to the Duet series, but with a hint of FridGEmore thrown in. I wonder if it shares any of the same internals with the Duet's. | ||

Spin Speed Cool washer but 850rpm seems quite a low spin sped for a front loader. do the clothes come out quite wet? | ||

A Glamour Shot! I just realized how to turn the flash off on my camera (like a year after getting it lol). Also there is one more video on my Youtube profile of the water level for the rinses. Enjoy CLICK HERE TO GO TO mattywashboy's LINK

Vintage sound
LOL, oh you youngsters!! Matt, I like that machine. If the sound of a 90's machine is vintage I can agree. LOL I love the water level in the rinses. How many rinses does this machine have? And how often does it spin between rinses? How do you like frontload washing so far? Thanks for sharing the videos. Louis | ||

Louis- i am loving front load washing so far, my clothes really feel clean and my whites are pristine. Rinse spinning is two short bursts between every rinse. I first thought this was a little pathetic but it seems to work okay. Darren- this machine rinses twice on the Daily and the Rapid cycles and both of these rinses is at the water massive water level. If you select Intensive you get an extra rinse which makes a total of three. I don;t know about the cotton cycle tho, maybe that has normal level water and three set rinses?? Anyway,more videos to come of spins and suc, just finding the time to upload them all :) Matt | ||

Matt had to watch it twice more. So, are you now converted to a front load fan. Was great to see you on the floor. Now you can fully understand why I just laid there in front of the GE Combo at the Texas Wash-in recently. I'd lay on the floor with my Fridgemore, but witht he pedestal, it's a little bit too hig for me, hence me sitting in my video chair on the floor :-) Sing it peanut gallery, FRONT LOADERS ARE ADDICTIVE!!! YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!!!!!

Cool Machine Matt
well done! Back to good ol automatic! Lol. Great vid. I saw the one with Jock in. Maybe I too should confess. When im home alone I very often make a coffee, put a load in the Hottie and sit cross legged in from of it. Hehe. Gets VERY scary when its very OOB like earlier today. A heavy jumper clumped on one side of the drum. The machine leapt out 3 inches at me when I put the dial on the last notch of the long spin. The motor hit the worktop so hard the bang was tremendous. Left me quivering I can tell you. . . . . Nick
