Okay, I quickly browsed the Deluxe Forum but haven't seen it mentioned before: ***Whirlpool duet steam*** Apparently their answer to LG's Steam Washer. And, yes: what's old is new - again... ;) CLICK HERE TO GO TO logixx's LINK

Electrolux - Iron Aid
Someone from the U.K. mentioned it here before but I thought I'd bring it up again. Electrolux already sells a steam dryer. It's a condenser dryer that uses it's own condensed water to fill a little steam generator. User's manual and a brochure are online - in German. I attached the GER brochure, since neither aeg.co.uk nor electrolux.co.uk feature this dryer - for whatever reason(?) Alex CLICK HERE TO GO TO logixx's LINK

It's not on sale in the UK as yet, as far as I'm aware, and nor are the new 8kg Electrolux tilted drum washers on the German site. | ||

You can steam dewrinkle fabrics with a Filtrator or a condenser combo. I have done it for years. The garment and a very damp towel to produce the steam is all that's needed. | ||

Electrolux - Iron Aid Logixx, How much water does the machine use for the steam feature? In addition to the stored condensed water, is there a separate water line needed for the steam generator? | ||

The steam generator holds up to 1.3 liters / 0.34 gal. of water. The dryer comes with a small container that also includes a filter: you just pour the water from the main water tank (that holds the condensed water from the drying cycle) into this other container and then into the steam generator. The steamer holds enough water for 4 to 10 steaming cycles. A little symbol on the LC display tells you when it's time to refill. There's no additional water line needed.
