Any news on when Whirlpool is going to bring its REAL euro sized front loader to the US market? |

This is the rebadged Eurotech abomination to be avoided at all costs. |

What Dumbo said hot water temp is a substitute for bleach? When I want maximum cleaning for my whites, I want 140 degree water AND bleach. What a lame excuse. |

I have to agree with KM1978, my hot water temp is set at 150* and bleach is need for WHITES in a FL'er! I don't have the TOL of FL'er's but it is necessary to add some LCB to remove stains that normal washing will not budge! Powder bleach just suds up too much!!! Someone will not get it unless you deal with a senior citizen who put apple, orange or pear peelings inside white hand towel and the stains set in after a day or two and the best detergents just lightens the stains without totally removing it, only LCB gets it out all the time! |

Danby appliances are NOT a Home Depot house brand, but rather a separate company. Danby Appliances markets rebadged washer, dryers, dishwashers and other appliances from various sources. The washers and dryers are made by Gorenje, in Slovenia. Dishwashers appear to be made by Haier in China, (Haier's model looks exactly like the Danby), not sure about the rest of the product line. There are other sources for Danby laundry appliances as well as for their other offerings. Several local appliance stores in our area carry Danby's dishwasher and have it on display. These same stores will order the washer and dryer even if they do not have them on display. Recently Thor has begun selling rebadged washers and dryers that are from the same vendor as the Danby units, under their own name. While it is true Gorenje, makes great laundry appliances, the jury is still out on long term use of these units. Many people feel even if the appliances only last 3-4 years, for the price they cannot be beat. Gorenje appliances sold in other countries seem to enjoy a good reputation, but again we shall have to see what we shall see. Launderess |

What Dumbo said bleach is needed at all? Europe has been doing just fine with hot water and no LCB for many years and you can't say that they have dingy whites. Having a Euro machine (Miele), I agree 100%, even with using American detergents. Sparkling whites without bleach AND using only a couple tablespoons no less!
