I've got a Bosch 6/6.5kg FL and I love it. It cleans so well and is gentle on my clothes. I use cold wash on cottons setting and it takes around 45 minutes. Mine has a max of 1200rpm spin which I reduce for towels and also wash them in warm water because they're softer (I don't own a dryer and we are very sunny here so they go a little crunchy if I don't do that).

Since moving to the farm about 6 weeks ago I've been using my FILs ginormous Electrolux TL (10kg i think) which I love for towels (softer finish) and linen (larger capacity) and animal bedding (we have puppies and dogs and cats - lots of animal bedding washing ick!) but it uses so much water and is harsh on my clothes with the central agitator. And it doesn't get the same "finish" on my clothes if that makes sense. They're more creased etc.

In saying that because of my circumstances being on the farm and the fact that I have a huge laundry room I love having the 2 machines. But if I had to choose, my Bosch would stay with me. I love my Bosch!

Hope my ramblings help somewhat
