Excellent advice as always. We always used the Fast Wash programme on our washing machine. Since finding your channel, we're now washing on the Eco setting, on the timer to start very early on the morning so when we get up, the washing's ready to hang out.
One tip I'd suggest when using the oven, try and plan to fill the oven with other things that you can freeze then re-heat in a microwave
Great advice as usual. I have started using the eco programme on my washing machine. Definitely a better quality wash and saves me water as I'm on a water metre. Thanks mate
Are you one of those clowns that's quite the wanker with money???
Hey Seabrook, you think you're really something special don't you???
@@dwaynereber2082 no mate I'm sorry if I offended you.
@@dwaynereber2082 lol! why are you bothered by this guy saying he used a different washing cycle? Hilarious
Love your videos. You know your Equipment well and I like how you present. But, as a bonus: You're a real ASMR treat :)
I have learned a lot from this video, thank you very much👍🙂. I have also recommended your channel to my daughter!
Very helpful advice. I’m going downstairs straight away now to clean the seals on my fridge & do a service wash 😂
Well done 👏 😀
I was told by LG (the makers of the Melt detergent sheets) that running some types of laundry on low temperature settings isn’t always advisable. If you need to kill dust mites in bedding; kitchen heavily soiled cloths/tea towels and underwear etc; you should always wash at higher temperatures. Not just to kill the bacteria, but also to keep odours at bay for longer. It does seem to make sense.
I remember doing an experiment at college using different temperature settings for stain removal. This included soaking and not soaking. The results were totally conclusive. The hottest temperature with soaking was the best.
Fully agree with this, i am not a fan of low temperatures, especially as i have 2 teenage boys!!
Bedding and towels washed at 60c which also keeps the machine clean, everything else seems fine at 20c. I love those Melt sheets.
Love your videos, have been watching them for awhile now. You always ask for suggestions for videos and was wondering, I don’t think you have done a tour of your store. Not sure if you would feel comfortable doing that but that would be cool. If you have done it in the past, sorry I might of missed that video.
I would like to see this too
Potatoes, rice, pasta bring them to the boil then turn it off let it cook in its own heat do it as your 1st thing. Potatoes are ready in about 45 minutes pasta and rice not long at all.
Counter-top dishwashers.. good for singles/couples (who don't hold 'dinner parties')... it is my one indulgence!
Thanks for heads-up on the cylinder vacuum.. didn't realise 'max' levels were so low (didn't read manual.. just plugged it in.. as you do).. I kinda presumed 75% was about right.. gonna check mine right now!!
Really enjoyed watching 👍🏼 I have an old condensing dryer and didn’t know I could wash the condenser under a tap but was concerned about the buildup of dirt and fluff in mine. Appreciate the tip 👍🏼
Thank you for these very much needed tips
Great video Andy as always! Thank you!
Keep up the good work! I appreciated the effort, your passion definitely shines through.
We have a kettle that will boil just one mug of water at a time if that's all you need.
Brilliant video as always! Thanks for the tips
Now using the eco mode on my dish washer, cleaning the condenser on my tumble dryer. It surprises me though people don’t see the max on hoovers
Good advice and useful tips 👍😊
Great tips, thank you
Thank you for sharing great tips
Leave tin food and jars of food in fridge. They keep the cold temperatures so the motor isn't always running
I just bought a new fridge, gas cooker, freezer and washing machine to get the best energy efficiency rating ones and save on electricity. I expect they will pay for themselves in 18-24 months.
Thats great to hear, i am sure you will start to see the benefit soon
Great tips!
14:31 the heat will end up in the room anyway, an opened door only changes how quickly.
Unless it's cold in your room... don't open the door
I wouldn’t use the eco program especially for bedding and towels. With the new eco 40-60. Most machines won’t heat to the desired temperature on the eco program meaning the clothes won’t get a thorough hygienic clean. In regards to washing at lower temperatures is also bad as it can create bad smells and mould if you’re not doing towels or bedding and drum cleans on at least 60c wash.
Well you missed a tip out on dishwashers
Basically in all dishwasher reviews you’ve said if you have a half load then use the half load option as that saves both energy and water.
So missed tip is if you have a half load then use the half load option.
Yes good point, thanks for that
I don’t know how the manufacturers can justify a 2-4 hours cycle maintaining a constant temperature as being ‘eco’, furthermore I think those long washes are a false economy because I have found it wears clothing out prematurely. Agree on keeping the grilles on the back of the fridge clean as they tend to be a dust magnet. Cleaning the plastic drain reservoir and making sure the drip channel a drainage hole is clear also will do no harm.
Because the whole cycle actually uses less power. If you check with a kill-a-watt meter or equivalent, it uses fewer watts overall
I’ve been washing at 20c but Miele reckon that the ECO setting that washes 40-60 is cheaper, I’m confused
Always a difficult one, but if you select an Eco program it can be more energy efficient and use less water than on some of the Quick programs. I would always refer to the instruction manual where there should be a chart that states how much electricity and water each program consumes.
@@lords-electrical the manual I have doesn’t mention 20c synthetics, but it does show that the quick wash isn’t energy efficient.
why would a full freezer run more efficiently? it just gains thermal mass, which shouldn't affect the efficiency. The heat gained from opening the freezer will be the same.
Hi would u consider doing the Dyson fan cooler pls ?
you didn't post a link to the eco\fast washes video
Why is it that the UK is going through energy increase rates??
Maybe you really need to watch the news at least once a week. Where have you been lol
@@seanseabrook4994 have you not thought that Dwayne could be from another country and doesn’t know? I know my ‘’foreign” friends don’t know all the reasons with many not even know about the price hikes. In the same way we don’t know what fully goes on in other countries unless our friends who live there tell us!
The uk and many other countries have stopped or reduced the amount of gas they buy from Russia. It’s more expensive from other countries and has affected the market.
@@andrewlaw5118 in the UK we only got a small percentage of gas from Russia and the price hike was on the way more than half a year before the war. They removed the price cap and the energy companies put the prices up by around 50%. While more and more people struggle to pay their bills, the companies are making record profits. It's about the greed. The price hike wouldn't be a problem if the wages kept up with the cost of living but they are nowhere near. I'm looking for a job atm and they are literally offering minimum wages for candidates with years of experience. It will only get worse.
@@capyboppy fair point I agree and apologise
my eco wash takes 3.5 hours 😢😢^^
yes unfortunately quite a few of the eco washes will take longer to wash but should be more efficient when it comes to the water and electricity consumption.
@@lords-electrical thank you 😊, am adjusting to using the eco wash circle now
