to love my American washing machine and its speedy ways

I am a saddo and love my American washing machine. There. I've said.

My supposedly fancy Bosch washer in London used to take up to two hours to do a 30/40° wash. Here, a regular Frigidaire front-loader gets the whole lot done in 30 minutes or less, and the washing is just as clean. I sometimes stand looking at the machine just marvelling at its abilities.

Do I need to get a life?

The main problem with the two hour washes for me was short attention span. By the time it finished I'd have forgotten I put it on and then leave it to get smelly for a couple of days before remembering.

If you have someone sick in the house and have to wash bedding etc, which can take more than one load to get done, you can end up feeling like you spent the whole day dealing with washing and might as well just stand at the sink and get a mangle.

Hi B-A-L-D, yes it is me. I'm back working for MN for a time, but from the US, hence the washing machine, which I hasten to add is a front-loader (or high-efficiency machine, as they seem to call them here) and looks just like a regular UK one. Except maybe it has a bigger drum. None of this old-fashioned top-loading carry on
