A good machine, except for the thermal lockout mechanism. It just works too god. It effectively prevents me from filling the machine with hot water by hand.

Normally it locks the lid if the machine is running and/or the water is above 40°C. But you can trick this mechanism by pushing down the left plastic piece. Unfortunately it tricks you back and stays locked. Now you can't close the lid anymore!

A washing machine should not try to outsmart its user.

Why I had to tape the lid shut.
