Dyson Washer Machine

The Dyson Washer Machine was one of the most anticipated products to come along in a while. After the success of Dyson vacuums, the company turned its attention to making washing machines easier to use. Although Dyson washer machines aren’t available new anymore, you can often find them being sold secondhand.

The Dyson washing machine has two drums.

The Dyson washing machine was invented by Dyson engineers trying to solve the problem of major manufacturer washing machines. During testing, the engineers found that normal one drum washing machines have trouble effectively getting the dirt out of clothes. Single drum washing machines don’t agitate the fabric enough to remove dirt quickly. In some tests, washing clothes by hand was more effective than using a single drum washing machine.

Dyson engineers set out to make washing machines more effective and more energy efficient. They manufactured special equipment that mimicked the actions that a person’s hands take during hand washing. By using two drums, the Dyson washing machine washed clothes faster and handled large loads better. The two drums rotate in opposite directions to gently release dirt from clothing in an efficient way. The drums also include 5,000 perforations versus the 945 found in standard washing machines.

Dyson washer machines stand out because of their front loading design and color choices. Although front loading washing machines are becoming more popular, this certainly was a different looking machine when it first premiered in 2000. The front loading design helps the two drum action and also allows the washer to hold more clothes than the standard machine.

The Dyson CR01 is also recognizable because of its colors. Standard machines are silver with purple and yellow details. Other models are available in all over silver or silver with blue details. The washing machine is 22.6 inches wide, 22.6 inches deep and 33.4 inches high. The model includes a coin and button trap and a child lock.

The door of the machine is made of the same heavy duty plastic that police use for their riot gear. The door is actually made of two interlocking doors, the inner door and the outer door. The door is designed to unhinge if it is stressed, which minimizes breaking.

If you are moving, you’ll be able to transport the Dyson CR01 with ease. A handle pops out from underneath the machine and instantly the machine is raised on small wheels. Once you’ve placed the washer where it needs to go, simply pop the handle back into the machine and the wheels disappear. One of the most popular features of the Dyson CR01 is the programmable settings. The machine can be programmed with up to three different “washing programs.” This means to can specify the length of wash time and level of agitation. You can easily program a setting for your delicates, towels and colors to use again in the future.

The Dyson washing machine is factory tested to last for 20 years. It is a heavy duty piece of equipment that handles the daily wear and tear of washing clothes very well. There are a few problems that some customers report, but Dyson has a well reviewed customer service support line and prompt repairmen.

The main problems reported have to do with coin and other small debris slipping through the cracks and stalling the motor. The best bet to avoid these problems is to thoroughly check pockets before adding clothes to the wash.

Unfortunately, Dyson is no longer making the CR01 model of washing machine. Although there are plans to create a new washing machine in the future, your best bet to grab this style of washing machine is to look in the newspaper or online for used machines.
