hey again Sadose, yea ur right in saying the logic clicks for about 30seconds its the internal mechanical timer clicking its way round to the setting chosen! i also have a hoover newwave that spins in the wash. which is what interested me about the zanussi's spinning in the cycle, its loadsa fun to see. i was amazed zanussis did the rinse spin as they never advertised it i heard from a friend that they did it! i have an aeg 74640 in the house which is pretty much like a zanussi jetsystem the jets on all the time. except it doesnt fill while distributing at the same time.

Gr8 machine Sadose! i do like those machines. to answer your question, the spin on my logic is fantastic. i've yet to have a 1300 out of my new wave which i'm at the moment tryin to fix. it has a module problem & cant get up to 1300 which drives me insane. it does a grand job of 800rpm though, got the dryer element on it working & managed to dry a load in an hour & a half in it. So i'm quite lookin forward to seein how quick it dries after 1300rpm. would love to see a rinse level pic of your zanussi. Darren | ||

Directa Jet
Love those Zanussi./Electrolux/AEG jetwash n rinse systems, road tested John from Brum's machine last week, the AEG 88880, had a rather large heavy cotton bed cover, washed perfectly then into his 7o's Hoover computer logic dryer...vented , reverse action every 37 secs...worked a charm...its the only item my MaytAsko always balls up...

Argh! Mike i want that machine lol Sadose - Thanks for the pics!!! their fab I just noticed they've changed the spray nozzel, my nans older zanussi sprays the load with a stream of water like the aeg, but yours its more of a flat spray lol (its hard to describe, you get what i mean tho?) looking forward to some vids :op | ||

Aeg
Darren was very impressed with this machine, its super silent , and very quiet & stable on the 1800rpm, I couldnt feel any actual difference from the MaytAsko at 1600. The directa jet really does soak the clothes, thesedays so long is taken up by dampening the clothes and then starting to wash only using the smallest amount of water to obtain the energy efficiency results....love the fact on the MaytAsko because its a timed first fill I can restart the machine and fill up to half way befor the pump kicks in... The only other machine I found very efficient was the Titan, that used a power pump baffle jet spray, the jets are built into the three baffles and are super pumped into the tub...

mike! thats some cool engineerin to make those jets work through the baffles! wow:d how cool! Sadose! i did notice your videos were loud i thought that was odd for zanussi does sound & look like my aeg in terms of sound & tumbling. i love old zanussis. high rinse levels on them were fab. i hate water deprived machines. least you can see the water in your zanussi!

Quiet
You`re right , machines are a lot noisier, Zanussi and Philco-Ford & Bendix all used large brushless motors, and the likes of the Zanussi 218T and the Bendix 7142 where almost silent... But we LIKE noise!!!!just had the old Hoover twinny washing and it wouldnt be the same without the spinner taking off like a jet engine and the "Rattling" of all those belts at high speed!!!

Hi
Hi guys, Sadose i love ur zanussi washer, my zanussi is from 2001 !! and its a FJS1225W its a great machine, never gone wrong and is washing the clothes well!!! My Zanussi does spin in the rinses!! when it is running a long 60 or 90 degree cotton wash cycle it distrubutes with the jet on and then spins at about 500rpm with the jet on for about 30 seconds to rinse the washing. its amazing!! i'll post some pictures up of my zanussi washer soon, as i have a new phone. Talk to you guys later Kyle -- | ||

More Pics and Vids of your zanussi
Hey Sadose, can i see more pics and vids of ur zanussi in action, ur jetsystem is awesome, its like a wide spray, instead of a hose spray like mine has, its really powerful, i'd love to see ur zanussi washing whites with loads of suds, do you get loads of suds using ariel on a hot wash coz i get a few using ariel colour on my whites at 60 degrees. (can only use ariel colour, i'm sorry to say that i am repulsed by the smell of ariel biological powder)

hey Sadose! to answer ur Questions.I DO have a mixed load prog i've not used it yet. but now u've said how it works i will give it a try. i didnt know how it worked cause no manual with the machine. i do truely love this machine to the ground & i will continue to revive it time after time. as i will with my other machines. differences between logic & ecologic is merely water usage i believe. i do like both these machines. i was considerin an ecologic on ebay when my logic went wrong but managed to sort the problem so i didnt need it. I cant believe you had a computer logic how jealous am i!!! dream machine to find for me is one of those. even if the cycles are probably the same as my machine! there just real pretty! So are you happy with your zanussi?!! it certainly looks very nice. & that 7kg drum is huge. i'd really like the 8kg Electrolux insight. but the lack of water & price detere me a little. D | ||

Love ur zanussi sadose!! it is totally awesome, i've always wanted to see how zanussi would adapt the jetsystem by altering the pressure of the pump and how many litres are sprayed out per minute. First they made the jet hose bigger and then they changed the hose to three holes in the top of the seal so the water sprays outwards like yours has. Its wierd how zanussi dishwashers are now called Jetsystem lol, they were always called Aquapulse which i thought sounded more appropriate for a dishwasher!! Heres a pic of a jetsystem diagram i found on the internet, it was originally in a zanussi brochure from 1994-1998 Kyle

Old Zanussi washers
The reason i bought a Zanussi was because my friend bought 2 Zanussi FL812 washers in 1989 and she replaced them in 2001 after they both broke down after being used solidly 10 times a day 7 days a week for 12 years. Now that is a work horse lol!! I've always liked that zanussi machine ever since i was a child, the FL812 has in induction motor which makes them really quiet on the wash and spin cycles, plus they use loads of water and they have lots of programmes on dial, i believe on the FL812 washer the cycles go from A-X i believe, i also loved the way that u pulled the dial out to start the programme on them. I can remember my brother had a tricity bendix washer that had a pull out dial. it was great Heres a pic of a Zanussi FL812 from 1989

nice machine and very 80's esque with grey! I wonder...as a follow up to my previous post...did the water level used to go right upto just an inch below the door on high fill as it looks like it's possibly the same era as my neighbours FL1023. | ||

cool, i loved my brothers zanussi, i knew the water sprayed through the paddles on earlier versions as my mums friend has a 1994 FJ1094 i used to go round and when i used to watch it. I used to do my brothers laundry for him stay at his house, i never understood why on his washer it had a fast spin button, i've heard of a slow spin button but not a fast spin button lol. I love Zanussi's Kyle P.S sadose what is your favourite lenor scent?? | ||

cool, i like the spring awakening lenor next to summer breeze and stayfresh lenor, i love the pink one too, thats lovely, it smells a bit like watermelon which is nice!!. My mum likes comfort though, the blue one or the pink one, Mum sometimes uses Persil Biological powder, when she doesn't feel like using ariel. This cleans quite well, is low sudsing and smells quite subtle so i can use any softener with it without getting a strong smell of detergent dominating the softener. My brother had the tricity bendix version of this this is a Zanussi Aquacycle 800/ Zanussi Delta they used to call it. Kyle

RSI (Rinse Sensor Injection)
I think the Rinse Sensor injection was some sort of foam sensor or turbidity sensor, or something there to use less water during the rinses to be more environmentally friendly lol. Don't quote me on that, but i think the jetsystem rsi range was meant to have a better pump, to recirculate more water thus more litres of water is pumped out per minute ensuring less water usage but providing a better rinse.

Yes they did, it was 1991 and i woke up at 3 years old with the 1982 Hoover Electronic 1100 Plumbed in, mine had the push button door and the rounded edge square door. It had a pull out dial which i loved, it was really good at washing, it went from A to H on the dial A Bio Prewash B Whites C Whites Economy D Fast coloureds E Special Cares i think it was some sort of synthetics wash with the Half spin button pressed in E Non fast coloureds with the full spin button pressed in F woolens with the wool button pressed in F Delicates with the half spin button pressed in G Special Treatments (Softener Rinse) H Spin Dry 1100 0 Off I can remember the programmes even though it was nearly 15 years ago lol. I loved this machine i loved the high water levels and the loud spin that rattled the cupboards lol Absolute Legend Kyle | ||

Sadose: i have been contemplating the extendia & aqualtis's b4. I'm now unsure. they both look very nice. but the old merloni quality worries me. or lack of should i say. ahh your old computer control must be from a similar range that of electron energy control stuff then? my friend had an electron 1100 it was great. I'd never have dreamed then that i would own my own one day. lucky me:D *digs out brochure* Quote " Rinse Sensor Injection technology & automatically adjusts rinsing to cope with the amount of suds in each wash for perfect end results everytime." Un quote. well you could speculate many things out of that. i would've said either a foam suppressor or adds more water/slower tumbling phase. i dont know.... my friend had a FL1084 & i loved goin round to see it on. one day i went round & my eyes fel out my head when i saw a then new hotpoint aquarius WMA forget the numba 1300rpm machine. in oyster! i was like wooooooah. but wow at the same time cause i'd never seen one of those in person. nice to know zanussi havent totally given up on what they stand for i think.

I havent specifically had one no. my best friend did & i used it regularly so you could say i did lol. the idea of the 45degree n 60degree button were for lighter loads i think to reduce energy consumption. looks good on paper i guess. you can see pics & videos of my logic i have a few! i will post them in a bit.

Hiya Thanks for the vids Sadose there ace! would like to see more... lol and thanks for the pics darren, i like the paddels on the new wave! In regards to your NewWave probs, you should try... www.washerhelp.com/... The guy who runs it specialises in hoovers! Hes really good... You could post your problems for free on the forum and he'd walk you through how to fix it... but i think its closed now! However, you might find previous posts from someone else who has had a similar problem. Mike: i love the Titan, i remember them showing it on 'The Big Breakfast' on channel four, lol! The designer was talking the presenters through it | ||

RSI i dug out an old brochure that explain Rinse sensor injection better. hes what it says; "The Rinse Sensor accurately measures the amount of suds during rinsing, determines the quantity of residual detergent and then adjusts the rinse water intake & spin profile during rinsing. The result is outstanding wash performance with maximum economy. Maximum water consumption for 4.5kg of cottons is miserly 58litres with the state of the art directa fj1200 washing machine. good stuff. D | ||

hydrosensors meant to sense the clarity of the water & adjust the rinses/water apparently. put a couple of pics up of my aeg washing. i missed the rinses because i was outside with the newwave lol doh! i'll capture that next time. & a video of my logic final spin up to 1300rpm D CLICK HERE TO GO TO newwave1's LINK | ||

im puzzled by that too. its either fast & slow spin or anti & clockwise tumbling lol i have no idea! my machines are lined up in my garage. much to my fathers discontent lol. but i dont care:D:D:D to think it all started with the logic in the shed. well thats not technically true. it stood in my utility for 3months while my parents holidayed in spain hehe & they came back to the grand site of the logic. cant think of a better thing to see once i've gotten back in the country from a trip! lol D | ||

im really not sure. i can but think that it is the option of bein able to select fast/slow spin. cause i remember that one of the models was like one speed i think which was 800rpm dont quote me on that. i'm just guessing. i've said it endless times before in conversation with jon & dan & steve on msn & in person. i would love to see a 2006 hoover washing machines that was a genuine hoover without any candy interference i believe it would be innovative & style as hoover always were:D Thats my take on it anyway D | ||

lol sounds like you didnt have much luck when you got rid of the old faithful. wow thats interesting about the distribution sounds equally as fun tho! my quartz is the same but jumps str8 into distribtion pinning everything against the sides from the minute the pump starts. tis all very dramatic lol. the only question i ask myself is when i get somewhere to live by machine. which machine will make the cut for the kitchen cabinet slot lol i figured i'd swap them over every few months! lol D | ||

weeeeeeeell. i use C,D,E J & K mainly. i've bin doin most things on D so i can get the spins between the rinses & let it do 800rpm final speed. Even better rinsing. if it just did it on the prog it'd b easier lol the quartz does!!! lol. on the newwave i use 2, 4, 5, 6, & 13 for seperate dry. it does a grand job considering it'll only do 800rpm for the moment. gonna get around to resolvin that this week or next week.

why doesnt my aeg ....? Why doesnt my aeg fill to that level on the Cottons rinses? I would be almost happy then! The water level on the cottons rinses doesnt even show over the lip of the door seal! I can see a change of machine coming on..... sadly | ||

if i use rinse+ the water level is lower. the pics there are of the machine on extra short cottons wash with no rinse+. on this cycle it does just 2 rinses at that water level with a 1000 rpm spin between wash and first rinse and a 1200rpm spin between rinses 1 and 2. | ||

My Zanussi Control Panel as you can see I like to wash dark coloureds at synthetics 40 with quick pressed in, mainly because i like the high level rinses and i find 1200 spins the clothes and leaves them creased out, also it is 56 minutes long so i can tolerate waiting for the wash to finish. A cottons 60 wash on my zanussi is 2hrs 8 mins, if i'm up early i will sometimes put the wash on then go back to bed for a few hours lol, its good though, the whites come out impeccably clean. Pristine whites!! yay!! championship whites with ariel!! If anybody wants to know what detergent i use, I use Ariel Colour & Style powder on whites and colours (its really good on whites, darren recommended it to me) with lenor spring/summer/stayfresh/pink the sleep sensations one smells awful if i might say lol I have used the comfort creme softener and i thought it smelt like coffee, but it was nice though not something i would like to have on my clothes lol Enjoy the pics Kyle P.S i may give Ariel Biological a try in the near future, i'll buy a big box of it so i can force my self to like the smell!! lol

Kyle, Nice photos!! Love your Zanussi, those pushbutton models are some of the best available on the market, tried and trusted too and I bet they'll be around for a few more years yet! Jon | ||

More Pics of my Zanussi
Hey guys, i did a load of whites this morning and i took some photos of my washer in action. I ended up doing two loads, a 90 degree cotton wash for dishclothes and teatowels, and a 60 degree synthetics wash for my bedsheets (these are pure white too) Heres a caption of the first load on cottons 90 with quick and super-rinse, i use this because on a normal 90 wash without quick takes 2hrs 25 mins, but with quick and super-rinse pressed in the wash is shortened to 1hr 47 and u get 3 rinses but with a shorter wash phase

Yeah it rotates very rapidly and kinda bounces the clothes up and down. For some reason the sound is more like an agitator top loader than a front loader. I'm not very impressed with the machine, however it was my landlady's choice, not mine.. | ||

Also, that service-whirlpool actually caused me to advise an aunt of mine not to buy a pricier whirlpool appliance. I just assumed they were all the same. | ||

Mark, Are you the guy that was selling the A3060 on Ebay? That was my nana's first washing machine - and has gotta be my favourite Hoover washer of all time!!! Jon | ||

Ohhhh I grew up with an A3060 which had to go in 1993 when it developed a nasty leak. Long history of machines since then as you all know. And the Zanussi has broken down for the first time today, 7 months down the line...albeit with a lot of heavy abuse! | ||

Zanussi-Electrolux ZWF1217W
Hey Guys I have the above and its fantastic- just short of 2 years old and no problems so far :). It cost me just short of £190(work for a Euronics dealer so got it at cost :-). The noisest thing on it its the pump!. Whoever asked the age of a s218T it would be very early 80s and they were indeed incredibly quiet- basically on a wash all the sound came from the water !!. This machine was also one of the Zanussi "Washcraft" models. And just in case you didnt know Zanussi-Electrolux have recently started using The Appliance Of Science as their tag line again after 20 odd years!!! Seamus | ||
