i think the advantage of using a dispenser ball is the fact that you know all the detergent is going straight into the wash, when they go in drawers, some may get lost in the sump in the pause between putting the detergent in the drawer and the fill beginning. Balls have been used for a long time in england as dispensers and altho some newer machiens have adapatable dispenser drawers for liquid, most old style english machines like the Logic and New Wave only have a powder dispenser and liquid was meant to be dispensed in a Persil Ball which Darren is using.

That is a very small 'load' - I assume you don't always wash such small amounts at a time otherwise laundry must take you days and your bills must be astronomical!! |

Interesting detergent ball, many were fascinated with the bag for the tablets last June - Mike sent some over for us to play with. I think it's a great idea, one of the things I don't care for on the Duet is the powder dispensing, it's all shot out in the first door-lock/safety check and it dribbles down the door instead of making onto the washload. Thanks for the pics - hope you had a great birthday! |

Hey Guys. Well me & jon Had a fun time! As the pic shows we used liquid in the newwave, which is a rareity. Because the idea of the detergent ball,is there is no detergent loss. But my machine was designed with this in mind by creating the front fill system, which is why powder works great in it. As all the water comes from the top lip & the clothes act as a filter so alas...there is no loss...But i do like liquid detergent as i find it rinses well & is great for pretreating. hope everyones well.
