How My Frigidaire Affinity Washer and Dryer Saves

Monday, September 28th, 2009

My Frigidaire Affinity washer and dryer save me time, money as well as energy!  I can fit so much more into one load which saves me in all of the areas listed!  The inside of the washer is huge! Just check out these images of the inside of my washer.

Those photos above are of the washing machine.  The dryer actually has 7.0 cu. Ft. which is the largest capacity dryer in a standard size!  I have 3 girls and a hard working husband.  We go through a lot of laundry weekly.  I love that I can fit an entire hamper full, plus more in one load!  Check out the image below for how large one hamper is.

Please excuse any mess on the floor.  This is where we come in the house and it has been a mud pit lately!  My point in showing you these photos is so you can see what I mean when I say they save me time, money and energy!

I’m so forgetful that sometimes I don’t realize til late at night that I forgot to do laundry.  Well thanks to the handy timer, I can schedule a load to start an hour before I wake up and have it ready to go in the dryer first thing in the morning!  That is one of the coolest features!  Scheduling your washer?  Awesome!  I love these washer and dryers and can not talk about them enough.

My pretty red washer and dryer…I love you!

No More Stinky Clothes!

Tuesday, August 25th, 2009

frigidaire-logoI tend to forget the laundry in the washer sometimes.  I’m sure you’ve done it a thousand times too!  As moms we are constantly running from one thing to the next, and sometimes we just forget! Just forgetting simple things like this cost me so much time.  It meant I had to rewash all of those clothes.  So, really…not only did I lose time, I lost money!

I really don’t have time or money that I can afford losing!  This is one more reason why I love the Frigidaire Affinity Front Loader Washing Machine.  I can forget my clothes for a little bit and they don’t stink!  I think the reason for less of a stink on forgotten clothes is from 2 awesome features that the washer has.

  1. Advanced Rinse Technology: Final rinse uses fresh water to ensure whiter whites and reduce allergens.  I think the fresh water helps keep the stink factor at bay a little longer
  2. The super crazy intense Spin Cycle! I truly feel this is probably the main reason that this washing machine makes a difference in this department.  It spins the clothes out so much more than my old machine!  Some things come out feeling almost dry in fact.

So yea, I still occasionally forget the laundry in the washer. Never for too long though.  Atleast with this machine it keeps me from having to rewash everytime I forget.  So far, they are holding true to the More Me Time Guarantee!me-timelogo

Thtest-drive-buttone one thing that could be better?  Programing it to switch from washer to dryer for me!

This post is made from my own personal observations and opinions of my own personal use of the Frigidaire Affinity front loading washer and dryer that I received as part of being a Frigidaire Test Drive Mom.  Thank you Mom Central!

More Love

Tuesday, August 4th, 2009

Yes, I love my new Frigidaire Affinity front loading washer and dryerL  O  V  E! Did I mention they were red and red is my favorite color?  Yes, I am sure I mentioned that several times!

More reasons I love my washer and dryer:

  • NSF Certification: Dryer includes ‘Sanitize’ temperature settings to ensure your laundry will be 99.9% bacteria free.
  • NSF Certification: Washer includes cycles up to 153 degrees to ensure your laundry will be 99.9% bacteria free.
  • WashSense™ technology: ensures clothes get clean with care.
  • Advanced Rinse Technology: Final rinse uses fresh water to ensure whiter whites and reduce allergens.
  • Multiple options: Over 15 wash options including Stain Clean.
  • Multiple Cycles: Seven wash cycles including Whitest Whites and Deep Clean Sanitize.

More than enough reasons to love them even more!

The sanitize setting is great for sheets, blankets and towels.  I also love it because of Emma.  Um, she is potty learning and not doing so good.  It’s nice to be able to sanitize her accidents!

I have noticed that my whites are whiter than ever and my clothes always smell fresh and clean!  So much better than my last washer and dryer.  Not too mention the time it saves to be able to run quick fuller loadsLOVE!

Who Needs A Plumber When You Have A Bucket?

Sunday, June 14th, 2009

affinityredwd_loresYesterday those pretty things  were calling to me. They were saying touch us, use us…we are here for you! The plumber had not shown up to take care of the tree root problem yet and I just knew if I used them that water would flood the laundry room.

A HA!  I’ll use the diaper pail to drain it!  So I did!  I washed my first load in my new Frigidaire Affinity Front Loading Washer and dried them up in my new Frigidaire Affinity Front Loading Dryer.

I seriously thought the diaper pail was big enough to hold all the water.  J brought me the mop bucket just in time….we almost had an overflow of the diaper pail(large garbage can)!

These machines are so quiet! I can not believe how quiet!  J was asking me if they were even running yet.  Wow!  When I pulled the clothes from the washer to put them in the dryer they were so much lighter than from the old washer.  There was so much more water spun out in the spin cycle.

They sure are pretty, I could not wait any longer!

Holy Cow, They Are SO Pretty!

Friday, June 12th, 2009

test-drive-buttonMy brand spankin’ new Affinity Front Loading Washer and Dryers from Frigidaire are HERE.  They are right around the corner.  Sitting in my laundry room looking all pretty and stuff!

But ya know…I can’t use them today and that really bites! I have to wait for a plumber to come get the tree roots out of our pipes.  The washer drained so fast when they were testing it that the water went out and all over the floor.  No fault of the washers though…it’s just we live in a house from the 50′s and in a neighborhood with tons of trees.  The tree roots grow into the pipes and jack everything up.  The same thing happened this time last year as well…but it was worse…way worse.  Poop came up in the bathtub..that’s pretty darn nasty huh?

So for now, I can only sit and admire the beauty…and I tell ‘ya…they sure are purdy!
