Zanussi spin driers
Discussion
Never sure if this is the right forum.
Anyway, those of you who have spin driers, you know the circular bit of hard plastic you put over the clothes before you close the lid, where can you get them from?
I have been googling for hours, various sites, none seem to stock that item. Mine is a Zanussi SD 2811W, you name it, every thing from washers, screws to belts, I can find, but not the bit that I want.
On the offchance, one of our members may have found a supplier for this bit.

Ex Hotpoint twin tub engineer here (crikey, that's going back a few years). Don't bother with it, there's no way anything could get out of the tub once it starts spinning.Anyway, those of you who have spin driers, you know the circular bit of hard plastic you put over the clothes before you close the lid, where can you get them from?

In other words, dont need to use it?. Does it serve an actual use then?. You mention twin tubs, our first washing machine was the Hoover twin tub, 4 min wash as I recall, none of this fancy stuff you get these days on washing machines. Or am I dreaming when I mention 4 mins?

You're either single & sad (which is my excuse) or you are the most unromantic people in the world.

4 minutes is indeed correct. The Hoover actions (circular uni-directional impellor) was really too vigorous, and 4 minutes was all the clothes could take. The Hotpoint action (reversing, slow moving) impellor was superior, more expensive (required a gearbox) and maximum time was 12 minutes

Aye, but when you have been married for 40 years, some things seem more important to the ladies than Valentines day......albeit I got her some lovely flowers, she got me a bottle of very nice red wine and a card.You're either single & sad (which is my excuse) or you are the most unromantic people in the world.
