The door on my Smeg Allegra front-loader washing does not open

The door on my Smeg Allegra front-loader washing machine will not open after it has finished its cycle. The push-button does not release the door. Once or twice previously it has been a bit temperamental but if I've pushed the door in firmly and then tried the release push-button it has opened. But not this time. I have tried running though the cycle again, but the problem persisted.

Samsung wf8750lsw front loader door wont open

Not sure if you mean when it is fully off or operating, but if you mean that once it is operating the door won't open, then the following applies...

Once a front loader wash cycle starts, the door on a front loader is physically (electronically) locked until the full cycle ends after spin dry. This is to prevent anyone opening the door and letting all the water out in the middle of the wash cycle, which a lot of people try to do to put in more clothing etc.

Kenmore elliet washing machine, front loader

To open the door manually:

UNPLUG the machine...

Remove the toekick panel (way down at the bottom).

Feeling along the inside of the front panel. You should be able to find a tab shaped like a teardrop attached to the door latch unit.

Pull the tab down just a little bit ... gently ... until the door opens (or you hear the latch click - then try to open the door).

Is the machine displaying a code?

FRONT LOADER DOOR LOCK WONT OPEN OR JAMMED

On a Bosch wfmc3200uc there is a green plastic string, similar to fishing line, located behind the round panel on the front of the machine. It is attached to the top right of the round black piece. Just give a slight tug this will release the lock.

Smeg washer/dryer not filling

Check the pressure switch, aka water level switch. If this isn't the problem, it may be the water valve.
