Nice Euro washer, but requires 230v/50hz power. Doubt if it would work in the United States. Launderess CLICK HERE TO GO TO Launderess's LINK on eBay | ||

Well either the seller *gave* away a perfectly great washer, or the seller is either moving to Europe/UK or knows something we don't. FAIK some appliances will run on 60hz even if rated for 50hz, just will run a bit faster in terms of cycles and perhaps spin speed. There was a poster over on THS who owned AEG units purchased from Euro-line and so far his run quite well. IIRC his are older units though and may even run off a transformer, not sure, would have to find the old THS tread to read up on it. Euro-Line Appliances still sells AEG units for import to the United States, and people are buying. Given that Canada has the same power as the US, methinks all one needs is the 220/240 volt connection, unless AEG has made 60hz units just for export to North America. Launderess | ||

60 hz
I checked my Lavamat 74620 and it is 220 V 60 hertz so they must make them tailored now to the proper specs. I bet my older AEG was either imported from England or else is was one of the first to hit the North American markets. One thing I noted on my older machine was the plug. It looked as if the original one was cut off and an aftermarket plug installed for the North American outlets.
