Saw this on FOX News while looking for other news. I kinda wonder how this will fly or if it will last the whole model year. CLICK HERE TO GO TO Tomturbomatic's LINK |

Maytag 5000 in most cycles just by pushing the pause button and waiting for the door to unlock.
There are certain circumstances where the door won't unlock; like when the water level is too high or on a sanitize cycle where the water temp is too high. Other than that the tilted drum allows you to add clothes anytime, though the add clothes light is only on the first eight minutes of the cycle as after that you may have missed too much to benefit from adding; so just as well wait until another load. |

Quite a lot of machines, including Miele have done this for decades. |

Oh my god when will it stop, another piece of junk that will save the owner having to think.
All these silly supposed innovations (or re-hashes of old ideas), eventually we could end up with non thinking potatoes aimlessly going through there lives never having to make a decision or think about anything. The manufacturers will own and control the human race................:-( oh well rant over, I now need to rest before I decide what items to select for my next wash and I hope I do not forget any, that will mean turning the selector to "0" pressing door open and placing the forgotten item(s) in the machine and putting the control knob back where ever it was.................that has exhausted my brain just typing that out! :-) Gary |

Is the "add a bit" door somehow interlocked?The machine stops when its opened-kinda scary to add something while the drum is moving!esp if the item is long or large.Or is there a lock on the door to prevent opening unless the machine is paused and the drum stopped? |

There are also door locks that will not allow the user to open the door if the water level is above the door, this is achieved by air pressure acting on the door switch mechanism.
The only way you can get round this to drain water via the outlet hose until the water level drops below the door level. Gary |
