It also comes out ringing wet. It is meant to spin dry a the end of a cycle, but it doesn't feel like this happens when I take the clothes out. So if I add it on a drying cycles afterwards they just come out hot but still rather wet. I don't know what else to do with this washing machine it's dribing me mad.

The previous machine made by the same manufacturer was 5.5kg capacity and would spin on 1400 at 40 degrees and I couldn't have asked for better results - perfect and creaseless every time as happened with all my other machines of various makes. Babuska (previous letter on your sight and also I believe Shirley ).were also complaining of the same problem.I dread washing now knowing more clothes will come out looking creased, old and distressed. Even though this machine is 1400 spin it will not allow one to spin at 1400 at 40 degrees, and I believe this to be ominous. When spinning it takes off like a jet air craft, there is no lull period and the spin goes on for ages with little or no water on the clothes to be extracted. I have deduced that the reason for this is that it takes less power by this method as the stopping and starting of the previous spin cycle would produce a less favourable energy saving rating. Well I am not interested in saving a small amount of energy at the expense of a ruined wash load and believe it to be very near sighted when one considers the energy used in the manufacture of the necessary replacements not to mention the cost. If I bought a pair of shoes and they let water in I would expect them to be replaced as "unfit for purpose" and because I know its possible to make a washing machine that is fit for purpose I am convinced that it is the mistaken opinion of the manufacturers believing we require eco/green machines at the expense of "fit for purpose ones" that has caused this and also the problems people on your site are having with rinsing.

If anything the bigger drum should make creasing less likely. The only thing I can think of that could explain the problem is if the old 1400 spin Bosch spun for less time than your new one.

The new Bosch Classixx 6 1400 Express(that's a joke in itself as it takes much longer than my previous WFL2872 Bosch ) The old Bosch was superb - even producing crease free perfect results on articles which recommended dry cleaning. This new one - the Classixx 6 is a pain - I dread washing for the first time in 44 years - (during which time I have had several machines of various makes and all have produced clean crease free results - This is the first washing machine I have ever complained about. I am sure it is well-built in so far as reliability is concerned but this so called "eco/green lobby are meddling in areas they know nothing about to the detriment of us all. I am now told that all clothes that come out of a washing machine have to be ironed. I have had superb results and never ironed a jumper cardigan trousers etc. in 44 years. Shirts used to be sold as "drip dry" and "non-iron" perhaps someone will enlighten me on how to achieve this. Ironing takes energy and cannot remove the deep seated creases even at temperatures far in excess of the manufacturers instructions. When are these people going to waken up to the fact that the prime function we require is superb results and not having to replace ruined garments continually for the sake of saving a pittance on the electricity and water bill.
