  • I think I broke it.
    I will be saving the drum unit and motor for a more fiery experiment :D, the rest can be incinerated and loaded up as scrap steel.

    I have a Miele washing machine. They really are in my opinion the Rolls Royce of machines. The build quality of their whole range is outstanding. They are built like tanks and are very reliable. These are only for people who appreciate quality and reliability. That's why they are expensive but you get what you pay for. So, you are wrong. The Miele is not like any other machine. They're far superior! Miele, made in Germany and still a family owned business for more than 100 years.

    Im really glad you tested the miele, at least I know my jeans will be well cleaned even if I forget to take my alternator out my pocket when I wash my clothes

    this is really cool - the physics, the engineering of the machine and even learning about possible hazards in future tests

    My BEKO did that--without a flywheel and alternator and as a bonus--flooded the kitchen!

    This proves how superior these machines are! Mieles are superior, just try doing that with any other washer.

      @erszebet Před 8 lety +3

      +TheWfhg they create hype. believe me. there are tons and tons of bad reviews about miele washing machines. even 1 should happen considering the amount of cash you pay for them!

    Having worked for Miele for 16 years (they pay my pension) and an owner of a range of Miele equipment inc DW,WM,TD, Freezer, and fridge freezer, vacuum cleaner, I am well aware of the strength and quality of design on their full range of machines, The chassis of the WM with shock absorbers has been well known in the trade for many years as capable of dealing with most weird and wonderful items being "washed" that may cause severe out of balance conditions without going into self destruct mode..

  • @terawattyear
    @terawattyear Před 12 lety

    Ed, very enjoyable video. First good laugh I have had in a while. That machine knew where you were and what you had done to it. It was on the warpath! Hopefully it didn't have time to tell the other appliances in your yard what might be in for them! Or they may take preemptive evasive maneuvers. :-O

  • @gamerchannel9578
    @gamerchannel9578 Před 10 lety +1

    Ive done this a lot, but its better when you take off the door, speed it up to full then throw a heavy brick in. The sudden weight change will send the washing machine crazy! Do try it.

  • @CableWrestler
    @CableWrestler Před 12 lety

    @Aussie50
    Ed, have you tried an isolating transformer? 230v in the primary and 230v out the secondary. This means that it won't trip your RCD in your workshop. I would advise fitting an RCD after the secondary windings, this means you still have earth leakage protection but it won't take out your workshop, or computers ;)

  • @Aussie50
    @Aussie50  Před 11 lety +2

    I never bothered testing it either but it looked like a seal had been leaking for a while. sadly it got dumped at the scrappy and mangled before I could save it :(
    bloody tough machines tho! I would own one anyday!

  • @RODALCO2007
    @RODALCO2007 Před 12 lety +1

    That Miele did manage to balance the load a few times in the beginning.
    At least you had a "live" test of the emergency stop button initiated by the Washing Machine on death throw.
    Interesting that the machine wants to attack the operator. Great video anyway.

  • @deonellis8577
    @deonellis8577 Před 4 lety

    Indestructible!!!
    If it hadn't been for the drive belt climbing off ... I wouldn't be surprised if that machine simply would have kept on going until the smoke and flames started coming out of it.
    Proof of top quality German engineering!

    Best thing about using the Variac is you can find the sweet spot for maximum resonance...

    my friend miele before you had already stressed tested your machine!!! so well built washing machines are not for to play with if you want to play choose those with plastic outer tubs!!! this one could be repaired i have repaired many miele!!! you have kept the scrap to wash your clothes and you destroyed the best one!!!!

  • @SP330Y
    @SP330Y Před 12 lety +1

    Just need a new belt and your good to go.
    German quality built to last.On average Miele washers will run trouble free for 15 to 20 years unless you wash car parts in it. Thats why there about £1,000 when new, you get what you pay for.

    nah, best way is just to make a bonfire out of the whole thing, fill the drum and casing with as much fuel as you can and light her up :D
    works well on top loaders too, since its only a aluminum drive boss that keeps the inner drum in.

    @BoomBoxDeluxe Před 12 lety

    So the washer took out the RCD? What happened to that whopping great transformer that you had, which you could put 240v into it & get 415 volts out?
    Putting that between the variac and the washing machine would isolate it from earth, right? Would the variac handle it OK?
    If so, then I'd do that, because then you wouldn't lose all of your power every time the cable gets chomped through. I know you used it in one vid with good results, but can't remember what vid that was now... :-)

  • @bigclivedotcom
    @bigclivedotcom Před 12 lety

    Don't knock RCDs. The day you get a wallop (and you probably will) and it trips is the day it might have saved your life. I take it you know that they work by comparing current out (live) to current back (neutral)and trip if there's a 30mA or so difference. It's really simple. Live and Neutral just pass through a torroid and if the current is equal it cancels itself out. Any difference induces a field in the torroid that is detected by a sense coil.
