Hey guys, Right i'm 7months on from buying this machine new. I have to say, its good, but its not to my standard. I detest how picky it is to spin, it could use abit more water, it could do more. It is no longer super silent as you will hear on the final spin video i've done today. Infact im sure the bearings will go by its 1st birthday. especially when i do loads like this! lol. So i want a new one. tho funds are low, i'd like to find something high spec on ebay at a reasonable £. So today i am trying to use up a box of ariel proffessional bio i don't like as its too sudsy and doesnt rinse out well. i washed our biiiig throw we sit snug on the sofa with, its heavy when its dry to this thing in the wash is reeeeeeeeeal absorbant. I had to do abit of manual filling myself, but we made it through a cotton 40 with no issues, when it spins its real fun, it reminds me of a philips machine spin draining the amount of water that cascades down the door! anywhooo check out my page and see what y'all think!

I too cannot stand the 20mins to do final spin and 15mins synthetic. my mums aeg takes 12mins cotton & 6mins synthetic. it does my tree in. Another tip for higher rinses on these is to fill extra water in the initial slow tumble stage, til u can see it over the rim of the drum, then when the machine fills manually it tops itself up to a higher level. the 2 stage rinsing is startin to annoy me now aswell. Ahh i just want a new machine! I'm goin to sell it, i knew i shud of bought the zanussi! Grr! lol. D |

Hey Steve!!!! Tut at you with your lack of e-mails! lol! Hope you are well. Yes once the maxx machines came out they did lose their quality. I've used or or 2. But i'd hoped maybe the current aqua plus would be like the "higher water level" button on the aquatech models etc. How are you getting on with your vision? Ooh well i think about it, has anyone seen the replacements for the "nextra" models, they are called "optimas" Heres a pic from the comet site! Darren |

Hi Darren and all Sorry to hear that you are so fed up with the Hottie! I can understand it though, I got rid of mine in the end. I have a basic Whirlpool in my flat left by the previous owners and I would ideally like to replace it with something new. However, I'm concerned that all the new machines have oversensitive balance sensors. The whirlpool works fine but is a little noisy. Do you or anyone else know what machines don't muck around on balancing? Rob |

Hey Steve! I've used aqua plus on my bro's bosch, it filled into the door seal and slightly up the door. i haven't tried it on easycares to see if thats any different! I'm glad your happy with your vision. It seems a nice machine, theres a black washer & dryer pair on ebay atm that looks very nice. I arranged a repair for a newwave yesterday that i'm happy to report will continue its great service, it needed a new door switch so the prog could commence! Nice to know their still circulating! I will have to fire mine up on my day off! Glad your well! I'd love to see a pic of your machine in action if you have any recent ones?! Darren |
