I am about to get a replacement washing machine and noticed in one

washing machine inlet) but if it is not leaking why is it essential to
replace it?

I must say that looking through specs and reviews of washing machines is
quite possibly the most mind-numbing and madness-inducing activity I've
experienced recently. Too much information!


Have you found the instructions for the quick wash?
Â*I haven't asked my 6-year old grandson how to do it yet! :-)

Looking at some of the specs was enough! It seems to me that the new
machines are adding pointless functions on top of already pointless
functions, and making it even more complicated. The "quick washes" seem
to vary from brand to brand, and with some of the standard washes taking
well over four hours I can see why they are needed. Actually, trying to
find the "best" machine for our needs is a lot simpler in one way as
"The Management" insists on a silver/grey/stainless steel colour to
match everything else, and there are far fewer of those available now
than several years ago.


I found one that could actually do a 14 minute quick wash.

Technical stuff like bedding is left to the gf as is loading up the
tumble drier afterwards and then making up the bed.
