Although you could choose the delivery free, Hermes called one day after ordering, and told me that the machine would not be delivered on Friday, but on Thursday, and my selection as is beside the point. Feel that as impertinence, have Friday free and now had to take an extra holiday Thursday. The two suppliers then called two minutes before (the lady on the phone said that they came 7:00 to 11:00) at at 10:58 that they were right there. A minute later would rang and asked me the washing machine in the hallway. I had to immediately sign, without having the time to control the delivery and got the documents into my hands. Well. So much for delivery.
My husband then evening with our neighbors joined the washing machine and put into operation. The machine is very presentable, the buttons are not pressed, but only touched and Drehknöpf is smooth and is only pressed to turn on the machine. First once run empty at 90 degrees. No sooner said than done, you can hear almost nothing. Contrary to the description, the drum is still lit, with all other models stamd this explicitly here, not here.
Supplement 01.27.14: The fact that the buttons can be touched only be slightly annoying, namely when you are a dryer on the washing machine and does the laundry after washing up. Regularly the wet laundry items then touch namely the knobs and the machine screeches and displays an error message :-) so bad, but I wanted to mention. By the way a child safety would be nice. Since my nephew has found how to operate the machine, it is to him a huge large fun to touch the buttons. As long as I have no children, I do not really care, but it would be more practical, for example, to hold two buttons pressed simultaneously before you can take the machine into operation.
After more than a month now, the conclusion: The washing machine is good, but the little niggles a likely patients only during continuous operation.
First of all: I had been looking forward to the dosing recommendation insane. I mainly use the Ariel liquid detergent for colored laundry and the powder for White. The dosing recommendation is then that proportion to the load a glass that appears on the screen is filled with up to four strokes. Then one should calculate how much detergent is needed. ME is a bad joke, helps me frankly nothing. If at least the percentage would be (the normally required detergent) directly on the display. By the way, these are 40% -60% -75% -100% and not as normal accepted 25, 50,75,100. Since I would prefer, it would directly the percentages are on display. With "ease of use" is here probably nothing.
Criticism two: The detergent dispenser. In compartment for the detergent of the main wash a flap with a scale attached. The starts at 30 ml. However, this thing is an absolute bad design. Fair I therefore order that the liquid detergent from the flap is down and prevents entry into the machine. Now the machine may not properly flush out the detergent and residues remain in the drawer.
So now you try to fold up the lid before turning on the machine. For a small button appears to be attached to the top, but the lid falls down repeatedly. So you have wet hands. Were they finally top, it falls at the latest while sliding the tray back down. An absolute joke. By the way I have now on the advice of the detergent diluted in the comments, but there still remain remnants back.
Gripe three: If you open the porthole, is as yet equal the gum, connects the drum machine. Sorry for the lack of technical terms, but as well as I know myself there from. In any case, this toward the drum three holes to drain the water. All thing accumulates exactly water and dirt, so we must regularly remove hair clumps and lint. The fact that there collects water, I then annoying when you raustut the laundry, and it (with me always sinds socks) if in this mud soup lands. Great.
However, one must also say that the machine washes well and clean. But nowadays do almost all. Although these are all perfect with whom I can live, but they are annoying anyway. Meanwhile actually calculator, spoon and cloth next to the washing machine. At least she says goodbye to me when I turn off. In this sense: "See you soon"!
