Asko W8844XL / W8844XL ECO Questions & Answers

The only way to get towels fluffy again is the finish drying off in tumble drier.

Hi
I start the machine
The cycle won’t start until I push on the door when it clicks second time
Hope this works

Got me maybe a program or electrical fault if some kind mine's been great so far came highly recommended salesman said he'd had 1 for 20+ years never had a problem.
Has it been repaired? Never over loaded? Doesn't help
Try lighter load or is there a way of rebooting it like a computer like a reset switch?

ASKO recommended that I replace the door lock. Have done that - still no joy

I recall the salesman from Harvey Norman's mentioning something about a pedestal, however I think he mentioned it may no longer be available or if your machine is put on a pedestal not specifically designed to go with it, then it would void the warranty. Sorry I can't be of much help but If in fact you are still able to purchase a pedestal through Asko then it would be best to check with them directly. Maybe it was a case of only using an Asko pedestal that suits your Asko machine. Mine just sits very well on a tile floor.

My washing machine does not have a drying option, so I am unable to answer or help with your question. Perhaps it would be more beneficial to contact the Asko technicians directly for further assistance. Sorry I couldn't be of any help. Good luck, I am sure they will resolve this for you.

Asks does not make a washer/dryer combo. The matching dryer is the T884XLCHP. The washer is a W8844XL. i think you've posted under the wrong product.

No it does not have a fluff dog hair filter it just goes out the pump into the drain.
It is amazing water saver .
How are finding closing the door ? Does it engage and have no problems getting straight into the programme or do you have reclose etc?
If the machines gets blocked by a Button, coin clip etc there is a little trap door in the front that you open follow instructions in the manual .
hope you are enjoying the machine I have heaps of dogs also .
Hope this has helped

My door does not close very easily and does not engage every time,

Hi there, sorry it took a little while to reply to your question. I have 2 cats (don't hold that against me) but I find that for items such as their sleep blankets, or anything like my kids clothes after they've been holding the cats to place the items dry into the dryer and put these on an air spin in the dryer prior to washing them. Generally, the air spin will not use any heat and will adequately remove all hair fluff prior to washing. This will generally take 10-15 mins, and then wash as needed. With the Asko machine, the only area which needs to be serviced is the trap door in the front as Julie has replied to you. Any issues with this, the friendly service team will happily guide you through. Also, a really useful tip I have, is be sure each month to run a clean cycle on the wash, this will eliminate any built up suds in the Asko machine and ensure its longevity. I also find that when washing sheets etc, instead of using any fabric softener, simple no name vinegar, and a teaspoon of baking soda will leave your sheets/towels etc perfectly clean and they dry better. Each time I get a new bottle of vinegar, I also put in 2 drops of tea tree oil, and a few drops of lavender oil as well. This helps 2 ways, lavender oil will help your sheets dry nice and crease free, and the tea tree oil will deter any nasties likedust mites etc. Hope this helps. It really is a great machine and I know what your saying about the water thing, but over time you'll wonder how you ever live down without it. I find the door on mine is a ok, but again, any issues just call the service team. All the best with it. Kind regards, Eloise

Hi no he took the bolts at the back off I'm talking about the bolts on feet

It uses 80-100L of water across the wash cycles not the maintenance cycles like rinse, spin, clean etc. this is under asko - product manuals - 8844xl Eco. Sarah
