Advantages: Great machine! Disadvantages: If used improperly may leave you're kitchen floor covered in detergent
When the old family washing machine finally packed up after a good 9 year run (R.I.P) it was time to time to turn our attention towards getting a new machine to live up to the old one's speeds, reliability and general performance. It was quite a few months ago now that we were flicking through an old Argos catalogue looking for a new machine.
The criteria that had to be met were:
1) High speeds for those stubborn stains
2) A good energy rating, so I feel like i'm doing my bit.
3) A good price
We finally decided on the Indesit SIXL 145S because it pretty much met all the above criteria though we did have to get over the opaque door which although seeming very small it was a weird notion not to be able to see the washing at all until the cycle finished. As previously stated we bought it from the Argos catalogue which is ...
Advantages: Very good price, attractive frost free fridge freezer Disadvantages: Rust appeared quickly, broke down after 3 years
I bought the Indesit frost free freezer after moving house, the price was very reasonable at £229.00. The capacity of the fridge freezer is good it's fine for a family of three and my sister also has one and does okay with a family of five. The applicance is very quiet and aesthetically pleasing. There are 3 glass shelves plus 2 salad boxes which are pretty deep. There are also 3 freezer boxes with a fast freeze plus ice cube trays built into them which I must admit I hardly used.
The fridge freezer was frost free and I've only had to defrost it myself once in three years which is good going, the fridge always worked very well and kept food nice and fresh, it was also very easy to keep clean.
The downside was rust appeared on the inner seals pretty quickly probably within the first year. The door also dents very easily ...
Advantages: It is an everyday washing machine that does the job Disadvantages: If you want high teach crome and digital displays it's not for you
I have owned and worn out several indesit machines over the years. This make has been inmoroving over the years and I have found it to be affordable and reliable with all the features of the so called better machines.
The 6kg load capacity is fairly reasonable and will take a sleeping bag or a quilt that's not too bulky. It cheeses me off when you own a machine but have to go to the laundrette because things won't fit!
In this day and age energy efficiency is important. Anything that saves energy and money is good news.
This machine has all the standard features you would expect. It's a work horse, it is reasonably easy to operate and the spin speed is ideal. It's spins well enough to get all the water out and not annoy your neighbours.
It's ideal if you are like me and just want a good relable machine that does the job. ...
