I would safely bet Zanussi/AEG as I know they can be modded for deep rinses... deep water levels aren't in Bosch's dictionary, and I'm not sure on Hoover to say. Jon |

MRX, The hoover vision. I've heard and seen great things about these! I myself am going to get the 8kg in black! The sensitive care option offers 5 higher than standard rinses. I've loved hoover since i was a nipper, when they were overtaken i was distraught. lol. The logic and newwave were my favourite models, which i now own. When i first came across the chance to use a post takeover hoover i was scepticle. But. I was pleasantly surprized! I never came across any of the freakishly unreliable problems that i've heard of with these machines. The model in question was a Hoover Six 1600 whisper. I liked it! Washed well, good rinsing and very very quiet 1600! So i bought the Comet equivlent of a hoover nextra 7.5kg 1400 while i was workin at comet. It was great on capacity, wash, rinse and spin results. It had super rinse option which was the same as sensitive care. So yes i would recommend a hoover vision! I'm really looking forward to getting that. But before that i'm going to fetch a hoover computer control 1100 from yorkshire!:D Bosch: My brother has a current classix 1200 which with Aqua plus selected does 5 highish rinses which is a few inches up the door. INDESIT of all brands have very high rinsing when you use their "time for you programmes" the water is half way up the door on the flash colours programme & about six inches up the door on cottons. I found this out for myself when we looked after the "in laws" for 2weeks. Hotpoints are similar im sure enough people on here will vouch for that. Hope that helps you abit! Darren! |

2DrumsAllergy: Congrats on the new machine, i've been lookin at that one in currys very stylish. I'm still deciding what im goin to buy, but its looking likely i'll get the Hoover vision 8kg in black! Are the rinses a few inches up the door on your aqualtis? The indesitcompany models seem to have great rinsing. I used my inlaws WIL163 while we looked after their house and the flashcolours programme did half way up the door rinses, so with extra rinse it does an oldschool style rinse and then a final 1200. It worked really well! Darren |

Hi Folks, Here is a quick picture of the Aqualtis on a 60ºC Cottons cycle, its on rinse 1. It sometimes takes in more water but it depends on the load; that load is fairly small. David. |

Nice Aqualtis - is that a store model? Haven't seen that edition on the website. Here's a pic of the rinse level on a cottons cycle of my Hoover Vision before it got fried! |

Jon, It's not really a Hotpoint at all, given that it's branded as an Ariston Aqualtis everywhere outside the UK and Ireland. |

Meanwhile, here in the U.S., our "sensitive setting" would equal an extra teaspoon. |

but makes too much sense for American manufacturers to do. |

It's like those low-water content toilet cisterns that require you to flush everything twice :D |

Hey David, That's fine - I was beginning to think I was losing it for a minute then LOL. Keep us updated as to how it's going - though I think we're all more interested in the Aqualtis hehe :-). Jon |

Hi Guys, My sister has the above washer with matching condensor dryer and having used it a few times am rather impressed with it, had a good look at all the options and have always found it to do pefect results, stable in operation and not that loud on final spin....4 yrs old now and no probs to date... And then again a neighbours machine has the drum cassette replaced 3 times in hers etc.. |

If you want deep rinses I would go with the Hotpoint Aqualtis or Hoover vision, both getting good reviews from customers and service engineers... The other medium priced machine with excellent washing & rinsing results are the AEG`s with jet system, Final recommendation would be the MaytagAsko, whilst it can do deep washes its rinsing is superior by allowing multiple shallow rinses.... |
