But they last forever!!
Thats the point of my post...by 3 at £200 instead!
Nothing lasts forever. We change our washing machine roughly ever four years, buy cheap or second hand. |

They are all much of a muchness, just make sure you have one that has a hot water intake as well as cols otherwise a standard wash takes about 2 hours.

This is the water.
And this is the well.
Drink full and descend.

Is that a fact, maybe thats what i have. Not my washing machine or apartment, i just rent but a washing cycle takes forever. Yep, just checked. Cold water pipe only, cheap cunts!!!! I pay a fortune for this place too. And the final spin thing is shit, the clothes are still proper soaking when the cycle is finished. Down with shit machines!!!! |

I've never bought a washing machine, but if I was in the market for one I'd get one that has a decent sized drum to fit all your clothes in. Also, as I don't use all the fancy settings I'd could probably save money by getting a more basic model.
If I was rich enough I'd wear everything just once. Laundry is a very annoying thing to do.

Can't equate to more than a few pence saved per wash. I reckon you'd have to do thousands of washes for it to pay for itself. How many washes do you do a week? Will the machine last that long? |

I think I missed that part of the post, I was in Alan Hayward "it's all a big con mode". But I think an average wash costs less than 10p. You'll save about £15 a year. Might be worth getting a more energy efficient machine as well though if energy efficiency and the climate is your thing.
Didn't know there was a place in the outlet, thought you'd been speaking to Jan. Make sure they'll take the old one away and plumb it in, unless you know someone who can do that.

No point plumbing the old one in, dumbass. |

I don't think there is anywhere in the Outlet Village that does washing machines, at least not the last time I went down there - unless the John Lewis shop does them! |

Just got rid of a Hotpoint which was a pain from start to finish ! Kept getting it repaired until the missus said enough is enough ! Now using a Fagor (sounds like a someone in Lord of the Rings but is a Spanish make) Had it 8 months and so far so good. 1600 spin means less soggy stuff to hang up or put in the spin dryer !................god this thread is ace !
