There's an eBay seller who's been selling these for a few years now:

IIRC comments were made at time huge front loaders like the Duet weren't big sellers across Europe. Not many homes have or had the space for such uber sized washing machines. In places were washers and dryers are fitted into kitchens or other tight spaces large washing machine likely would pose problems.
Think the conversation came up also as to why Miele didn't really market those huge 4XXX series washers and matching dryers all over Europe. |

I really hope they will never arrive here. We are certainly not short of rubbish! |

I am aware these aren't huge sellers. And that the semi-commercial machines were around before. But these are just straight up home machines, nothing about them. My main interest is the dryer. Having an efficient large volume dryer is awesome! Not gonna get one here in the flat, but if it sticks around some years might be interesting... |

That Samsung 18kg washing machine seems to be hot and cold fill. I still wouldn't have one. Samsung aren't renowned for washing machine quality. |

I don't know why, but I noted that also LG and Hoover (Candy / Haier) do not sell their high-capacity washers in Germany, while they sell them in France |

LG does sell 2 versions of their US derivatives over here - a 15kg version without steam and a 17kg version with steam. Hoover only sells their 80l 13kg rated version here. |
