Hi guys,
I have a zanussi IZ front load washer that must be over 10 years old now. It is a dream machine and has never broken down and has withstood shipping from UK to Australia when we relocated 5 years ago. It is still going strong and washes really well. One of the best things about it is that during wash and rinse it circulates the water and constantly sprays the load. I really fancy a new larger front loader but want one that has this feature. does anyone know if whirlpool, Samsung, LG, Bosh or any other manufacturer who are selling the larger FL washers in Australia has this system that Zanussi call "jet system"? Look forward to any info Cheers Simon | ||

The Electrolux washers available at the moment all spray the load during the wash with the jet at 12 o clock in the drum.
My partner and I just purchased an Electrolux Time Manager 8kg, 1400spin for 400 less than regular price due to it being a store floor model and they already had a big sale on at Harvey Norman. I can honestly say its a perfect machine. Very quiet, powerful 1400 spin huge capacity. The jetsystem works really well and the range of cycles is great. Big bonus is the Time Manager addition on Cotton, Synthetic and Delicates. You use the + and - buttons on the machine to select on of 6 soil levels and this adjusts the time of the wash, can be as much as 2 and a half hours down to as little as 50 mins for a Cottons wash. I'm trying to get a photo of my phone at the moment but still figuring out my new phones bluetooth etc... Hope this helps, they have lower ended models too with only 1000 spin that are also 8kg with time manager and jet system. Heres a link to the website... CLICK HERE TO GO TO mattywashboy's LINK | ||

Heres my machine.
Please excuse multitude of detergents surrounding it, none of which Australian, apart from the Omo capsules you can see fallen over lol. I have a weakness for British and German Persil and American green Downy lol. Amazon didn't do much good for my credit card, neither did the UK shop 15 minutes from my house haha. Its a great machine, looks good and doesn't move or vibrate much at all during the cycle, the dryer on top just wobbles slightly on the ramp up and down from spin.

Laundromat
I still think Electrolux needs to reintroduce their front loading washers and matching dryers in the old style open down/slanted door fronts like the old Laundromat models!Those also had the tilted interior drums.I believe that Westinghouse pioneered that design.Hoover also had it back when they had their key machines out.The new Frigidaire Affinities have some interesting improvements and now have the apex window where there's a center point like the old Laundromats a bit AND a newfangled device on the front frame that holds the door open so it can air out to eliminate mildew from forming.

Candy EVO Here's the video :) And it has a nice drum 9kg (66l), 1400rpm, everything else is pretty much the same as my GrandOPlus (You can check YouTube videos for it) :) CLICK HERE TO GO TO nrones's LINK | ||

@nrones I love those Candys How well do you think the Uk ones would be built? @spinspeed I think the older Zanussi's were best for jetsystem, the newer ones don't all have them. I am sure electrolux exist in Australia, so have a check around for them-I presume some of them will have jetsystems. | ||
