The pits

Advantages: NONE
Disadvantages: Length of time for wash, Poor wash, Leaking, over-sensitive balance

I bought this machine about 6 months ago as a fairly basic work horse machine. It is cold fill and supposed to be green & economical to run - huh! Firstly it takes 2.5 hours for a full cotton wash and I would question how 2.5 hours electricity saves much over heating the water a bit more. I don't have that time to wait for a wash to finish - so what economy? Quickwash is just a swill round - nothing more. The balance mechanism is so delicate that ...
...still dripping - more waste of power and time. On several occasions it has leaked water when taking in either through the soap drawer or today - the door! I like to hang washing outside when possible but half the day has gone before the wash has finished. I did have a fault soon after purchasing and I must say that was cheerfully and speedily fixed. This is the only good thing I have to say. The rest has been anger, irritation, aggravation and ...

LG Direct Drive Washing Machine - I can't recommend highly enough

Advantages: Multiple spin speeds, babycare cycle, bulky cycle, quick wash cycle and child lock
Disadvantages: some may find the tune that plays when the washing has finished annoying.

What can I say other than "WOW!" This is the first washing machine that I actually enjoy using! Not only does it look good, but it is so efficient and quiet. The features are impressive. It works with just cold water, but offers cold washing, 30, 40, 60 and 95 degree cycles. It has a special babycare cycle, a medicare cycle, duvet cycle, four spin speeds and much, much more. It even has a child lock (a blessing in my house) There is also a timer ...

Maytag MAF8800 stainless steal washing machine- spotless!!

Advantages: Great wash results, low running costs, quiet, looks amazing, bomb proof.
Disadvantages: Expensive

...year ago because of the Maytag reputation and the economy of the machine (which is one of the most economical on the market). The Maytag brand is very big in the USA where I would say they are the equivalent of the Meile brand over there. As expected, the machine has lived up to its billing as a king among washing machines- its bomb proof- very heavy and welll designed as its fully clad in stainless steal. The wash results are superb and does wonders ...
