Re: Rinsing
No I am not obsessed i can assure you.
There are no blockages as i have already mentioned. None in the sump, filter or drain hose yet i end up with foam stuck in the sump. Although the pump drains the water it leaves the foam behind in the sump which makes subsequent rinses foamy. Do you understand what i mean??
There isn’t any water droplets on the door glass even on the last cycle. I can assure everyone who reads this i am dosing correctly and nothing i am doing.
I do have a spare Hotpoint pump and wondered if i could use it on the Bosch? They are pretty universal aren’t they?
Re: New Persil ‘Small and Mighty’
Start off as liquid then turned into powder format? Interesting, ill have to ask Unilever, that should be fun lol
Re: New Persil ‘Small and Mighty’
@ KWatt I forgot to ask you something which hopefully you may know. Regarding liquid detergents don’t they start off as dry solid ingredients and then dissolved with water?
Re: New Persil ‘Small and Mighty’
@ Muv I would be very interested in your 9513. How much would you want for it? I am in Colchester, Essex but am prepared to travel. I would need help lifting the machine though if that’s possible.
Re: New Persil ‘Small and Mighty’
I would love to be a washer engineer but have no idea where to start. Have always been interested in chemicals and appliances ever since a young age. I used to work on the Hotpoint 9506 myself and that is the thing I miss most you can’t do much work yourself on the modern ones although I did take the drainage hose and drain pump off the Bosch myself following an ESpares video which was good.
It is a bit of a tyranny all this eco friendly clap trap. Customers should have the choice if they want high or low water levels. Have had numerous rows with Currys, Comet and Bennetts about modern machines lol No one listens except here or the Washerhelp site.
Nice to actually exchange messages with someone who knows what they are on about and is honest about appliances.
Re: New Persil ‘Small and Mighty’
KWatt tell that to the tree hugging hippies on automaticwasher.org who think you can get excellent rinsing with low level rinses. Never heard of so much guff in my life. Im only 31 but I can remember when machines used to rinse and wash properly but I don’t buy into the green washing anymore. Its all about making money and I for one can see right through that.
No modern machine is what I am looking for so am not going to bother with buying another automatic. Am giving the Bosch to a friend today so that will make room for my new dishwasher. It infuriates me so much that such a simple job is so difficult to achieve.
Re: New Persil ‘Small and Mighty’
I have heard of the ISE 1406, Does it do deep rinse levels? I may well have to look into that and get rid of the Bosch.
The Bosch Classix 6 is not very good model is it? Not sure if its German or not but doesn’t say on the back. I don’t want another Bosch that’s for sure.
In terms of rinsing performance do powders/tablets rinse better than the liquids?
Re: New Persil ‘Small and Mighty’
@ KWatt I like to thank you personally for being so helpful and giving honest advice. I know where to come in future.
There is one last thing though do you know if Persil is suitable for Vegetarians/Vegans? I have personally contacted them but they don’t respond. I have found an alternative to Ariel which is Simply Biological tablet format, just need a colour detergent for whites. Any you can think of? Regards
Re: New Persil ‘Small and Mighty’
My washer is a Bosch WAE2465GB Classix 6 ‘Vario Perfect’ and I absolutely HATE it. The rinsing is pants even with the Aqua plus. Be glad when it breaks down. I won’t be bothering with a modern automatic anymore. Shall get a reconditioned twin tub. All this eco friendly, water saving nonsense drives me mad. I rather have a machine that uses plenty of water so I don’t itch and save water by having a shower or using a watering can to wash the car. It really is just green washing.
Re: New Persil ‘Small and Mighty’
Can honestly say I have never over or under-dosed liquids though. Do optical brighteners fade coloured clothing though? Some people tell me they do and some say they don’t.
If you were in a hard water area how much liquid would you advise for normal soil? On the Persil liquid it says 52ml which is too much as that dose I would get loads of thick foam at the door.
I used to use Simply but they don’t make colour care no more but I did find that suited my water quality and the Bosch seemed fine with that.
Re: New Persil ‘Small and Mighty’
Persil have now put Optical Brighteners in their colour detergent so that’s not suitable is it?
I use Stergene for delicates.
Would it be ok to use German Persil Henkel here in the UK. A friend gave me a box of it and wondered if it would be ok to use?
I know you personally don’t like liquids but other than lack of bleach can you please explain to me why they leave a residue in the drum if they are supposedly 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} soluble?
Re: New Persil ‘Small and Mighty’
Thanks for all the help, I think have sorted the problem out fingers crossed.
Regarding liquids KWatt would I be better using the dilute ones rather than the concentrated versions?
Re: New Persil ‘Small and Mighty’
Well I have removed it anyway now and have no intention of putting it back. I think it slowed down the draining personally.
