"I kind liked washing machines that properly heated to 90C"
Modern front-loading washing machines still heat to 90°C. What's changed is that modern washing machines use less water than older models.
This is one of those dilemmas with older appliances: the older appliance is in perfect working condition, but uses much more water per wash (or more electricity). Do you keep the older appliance? Or buy a modern model that will save you water (or electricity)?
- switch007 6y ago> Modern front-loading washing machines still heat to 90°C I've read reports to the contrary (when researching current machine). A machine having a 90C cycle does not mean it heats to 90C, and for a decent amount of time. Yes, they use less water. Which means I often do an extra rinse cycle at the end. ("Use less detergent", well, I like clean clothes)
