Why do I use 2 progs. per wash?
Hi all,
I have a Beko WMB101433LW that I wash my clothes in using a prog that lasts 1.50 and uses 40 degrees, 800 spin. However, to dry my clothes out properly before putting on the line or tumble dryer, I find that I have to put them on a rinse and spin at 1400 spin to dry them sufficently?
I know I am doing something wrong.....but what else can I do? 1400 spin is the correct speed to dry them?

Beko WMB101433LW only spinning at 800 rpm on chosen wash programme
- The problem
- The user’s Beko WMB101433LW was being run on a 1 hour 50 minute, 40°C, 800 spin programme, and clothes were left wetter than expected unless a separate rinse and spin at 1400 rpm was used afterwards.
- Likely cause
- The selected wash cycle appears to be one that is designed to finish with an 800 rpm spin rather than the machine’s maximum 1400 rpm. The accepted reply also suggested a spin-restricting option button may have been selected.
- What fixed it
- Use a programme intended to give a full-speed final spin, with cottons specifically suggested as the cycle likely to use the maximum spin speed. Also check whether any option has been selected that limits spin speed. If washing fabrics that require a lower spin, the 800 rpm final spin may be normal for that programme.
- Checks to try
- Confirmed the chosen wash programme ends at 800 rpm
- Advised to check whether a spin-restricting option button was selected
- Advised that cottons is likely the programme with full-speed final spin

Hello there. I think the only wash cycle that does the full speed spin at the end is cottons. If the wash cycle you are using only spins at 800 then it is likely to be designed for a different type of fabric. Unless you are washing a different type of fabric in which case the wash cycle is probably spinning at the correct speed for that fabric.
Another alternative is if you have got an option button selected that restricts the spin speed for some reason. Check this page out, which shows the likely correct spin speeds for different fabrics on a 1400 rpm washing machine Laundry getting badly creased in washing machine
