A quick vid on a few tips to make using your FP easier. This is a WM1480P and is correct as of April 2020. To set your own programme preferences all you have to do is select the programme you wish to amend. Press and hold an option button until 'SEt' appears. Now select your own favorite/default options. Once complete, press the 'key lock' button to save.

My overview of the Fisher & Paykel washer, 8KG, 1400 spin. I can highly recommend. Lots of flexible programming with many optional wash times. Hot fill optional (can be cold fill only). Very quiet and stable, easy to use and extremely stylish, looks quite different from other brands. Easy to use, quick door release with also an emergency door release by pump filter in case of power cuts. Sturdy...

For a full programme breakdown, go to my overview. Very pleased with this machine. Very quiet, no clanging springs, good wash action. Great spin without endless faffing. It will protect the machine from imbalances but not at the expense of your time!

Beko washer bought end Sept 2019. Excellent machine, washes and rinses well. Lots of programme options and variable quick washes. Whilst the out of balance protects the machine from damage the machine gets on with it and does not jump around and cause excessive vibration. Very reasonably priced for what you get. Independent review and compared against many other modern washers. New machine so c...

Independent review of this machine. Bought May 2019. Tested along side other well known brands. Well made and generally stable and probably the quietest machine I own. Good spinning and flexibility. Does not take forever to balance the load and general wash times are good. Allows a fast spin on Quick with up to 3 rinses allowing quicker drying and good rinsing. With all options selected Quick c...

Here is a demo of the mixed wash programme in action. I have selected intensive action and 1400rpm. Does a good job without taking too long. I show the wash, rinse and final spin. It should be noted that the high pitched top spin noise isn't that loud in real life. Wash actions are similar to cottons but the spins are shorter to protect clothes.

These are relatively rare so I wanted to do a review and overview. This is the 7KG version bought October 2018. It is not the dual fill version as I have no hot water outside. I forgot to mention it has a jet wash and the door opens as soon as it is finished. Nice machine with a decent wash. Uses a good amount of water without wasting any. Lots of variable programmes and times. Decent quality a...

Video showing the variable spin on the Hotpoint 18580. This machine is nearly 40 years old and still works well.

Old AEG with large load of old towels / pet bedding on a rinse and 700-800rpm suds lock spin

Hotpoint spin demo, machine circa 1980. This machine has 3 support legs which I believe were dropped in 81. I'd accidentally moved the dial too far on, hence the spinning before the water drained. Firstly at 500rpm then 1000!

Old demo of the 804 washing machine. Currently in storage but still working well. Circa 81ish

View of the S218T's deep fill cool down.

Zanussi S218T from early 80s demo. Older film so excuse the fuzzy picture! I used to be known as buxtedlad. Machine still working but in storage.

Demo of Hoover Electron from the mid 80s. Filmed a few years ago so a bit fuzzy! I was formally known as Buxtedlad, machine currently in storage and still works.
