The aquarius was always one of my favourites.....

I ave the Aquarius 1100 model, Marillion Man, purchased in the year 2000 from Direct Discounts near Halifax Swimming Pool. Great machine, always done the job and my whites are whiter than white!

The 1500 spin has always been a good little mover Tony, not to be under-estimated.

Hmmmm .. the 1100 is very powerful ... it's pretty frightening when it's in full flow, sometimes I think it's gonna take off! As for detergent .. check the label, some fabrics "don't like it".

Unless you've thrown beer and food down it a quick wash'll stop it smelling of man.

Mr Man, the higher spin speed of the 1500 while allowing the removal of more water and therefore reducing drying time will put clothing/washing at higher risk of damage caused by friction due to washing rubbing against to non rotating parts such as the viewing window.

As for washing detergent I can recommend Surf small and mighty with essential oils, using the 40 degree cycle. Brings em up a treat.

One warning though Styler, should you not be proficient with crease removal apparatus (i.e. an iron) get someone else to do your shirt on a low heat as you will melt it otherwise. A common problem with man made fibres.
