Hey guys, I get today this Bauknecht WAS 4740 with 1400rpm from Bauknechtboy. It is a Bauknecht version from the Whirlpool AWM5140. The cycle is same as at my Whirlpool AWM3100
what do you think over this Bauknecht?

I never liked Bauknecht machines. Is this one any better than the older ones?

The wash and rinse waterlevel is high! in wash the level is at the doorseel and in rinse the water is ever in the doorglass.
The quality at this washer is no so great with the qualiti of my Bauknecht WA3773, but the washers are cool at the cycle them are interesting to watch :)

So, I make the wash vs. wash and the champion was the Whirlpool. It was exact 20seconds faster than the Bauknecht. The wash cycles was 100% the same at booth machines, but one different was there, the whirlpool spins clockwise and the Bauknecht counter clockwise.
The waterlevel in the Bauknecht was really high i havnīt seen as a so modern washer from this company.
The Bauknecht WA330 on the left site was running too on cottons 40 at the picture it is at final spin 1000rpm. The other washers are in 1st rinse of cottons 60 cycles
You canīt see at this picture the Bauknecht WA3773 that was running at cottons 95°C.

This model looks a bit...

...BOL but if it washes and rinses well... The older Bauknechts or BKay in Britain were better off in quality means I think. Now with Whirlpool it is all plastics...
