There is also an InfiniteCare dryer drum. Looks like the one on the washer but its drum vanes extend over the air inlet at the back of the drum so air is blown into them and over the laundry.

Loving the look of the new beko range, very smart, and it looks like they got a 11kg model very interesting to see what they retail for. |

Poor they are not avaible in Germany yet. Even though the quality will probably the same (is there a word for worse then worst case?), I would like to get a Whirlpool heatpump dryer with that drum... |

The current F&P front load machines are Haier...they may well have been designed by F&P, but they are made in China and sold as Haier everywhere else.
The original F&P machines were a Beko AND a Bauknecht....The Bauknecht ones had issues and were discontinued with Beko machines continuing in several capacities Beko supplied F&P right up until the last few months. They're good machines. Use a reasonable amount of water and have a good range of programmes. My mother has a Beko supplied F&P machine...it replaced an ASEA Cylinda 12000 which she loved for 20 years, but the Beko is better in many ways...certainly quieter! |

Ron, the reason for that will be because haier now own 90 percent of f&p shares. Haier really do make beko look like quality |

Never, ever underestimate a manufacturer and their ability to change, particularly the Chinese.
Beko weren't the best of quality and then they bought Blomberg..... Maytag was renowned for good quality, and then look what happened to them.... You can add Hoover, Hotpoint (though apparently improving) and Zanussi to that list of previous better quality machines that are now owned by others and where the quality has been removed to a degree or two. |

Same door opening, just bigger plastic frame around it, making impression it's bigger. Kinda remind me of Miele's design like W 1613 for example |
