I have a Bosch Axxis+ Washer that is two years old. I have two other friends who bought the identical machines shortly after mine because I gave it such rave reviews. My question is, myself and one of the other guys are not having any problem with our machines, but the third guy is on his third boot. That's in less than two years. The boots on his machine seem to get torn to shreds on the bottom of the opening almost like someone has taken a knife to it and shredded it. He says he is very careful in removing clothes, and he lives alone so the Washer really doesn't get that much use. He probably does 2 to 3 loads a week. Mine gets used almost every day and I haven't had a problem in almost 3 years. Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening to him? He asked the repairman, and his reply was that it probably has to do with the detergent he is using. Well, he and I both use the same detergent so you would think I'd have the same problem. Luckily, he has an extended warranty on his machine but it just doesn't seem right that he has had to use it twice already. Anyone have any idea what might be causing this? Thanks. |

My otherwise wonderful cat has a thing about shredding leather and rubber. I have to keep all my really good shoes out of his way, and anything fun hidden. Lawrence/Maytagbear |

Jet, Thank you for the suggestion. He is in Chicago and I'm in Arkansas. He would never be able to do this and I'm not sure I know how although I could probably with some instructions. He told me the boot was going to need to be replaced again shortly so I'm going to forward your note to him and ask that he have the service man check this when he replaces the boot again. Ralph |
