Washer has four settings. "cold-cold", "warm-cold", and "hot-cold". That's what the label says anyway. What the real settings are is "warm-hot", "hot-hot", "reallyhot-hot".
Hehehe. Mine's the opposite. We have cold/cold, cool/cold, and lukewarm/cold. So sometimes stuff doesn't really get clean. But at least it doesn't shrink...
The sole advantage of having a washer that hooks straight up to the sink is that I control the horizontal, the vertical, and the temperature.
Unfortunately this means that in order to have different temps for wash and rinse, I have to stand next to the washer and change the temp on the sink faucet when it changes over to rinse. So everything basically gets washed on cold.
Is yours like mine, where it has no sensor for when the ice bucket is full and just keeps on making ice until you turn it off or it bursts open your freezer?
Indeed. And it makes it at a frightening rate, and since the tap water here is pretty nasty (or maybe it's my filter), I tend to leave it off most of the time lest my freezer be overrun by musty ice.
I can't figure out the hot water in my house. The shower in the master bath takes zero time to heat up to the right temperature. The "cold" water in said bathroom sink runs warm for the first minute. This room is one floor above the water heater and on the opposite side of the house. The kitchen sink, however, which is perhaps 15 feet from the water heater takes for-frelling-ever to heat up.
