Washing Machine Saviour

Advantages: Quiet, large drum
Disadvantages: Can take longer to complete a cycle

This machine is my saviour. I live in a shared flat on the first floor. Our old machine sounded like a tractor when it was spinning. This machine has an almost silent spin on it. Our neighbours no longer complain that the machine sounds like it's going to come through their ceiling... Also, boys being boys, they struggle to use anything that involves cleaning! It's so easy to use, that i often find they have now done their own washing! You have ...
...machine also has a big drum so you can do a good amount of washing in one load. This machine is great and i would recommend it to anyone. Would be good type of machine to put in a furnished, rented property Offers the following wash cycles: Whites,Coloureds,40Oc & 60Oc, Fast wash, White prewash, Shirts, Silk, Wool, Duvets, Bed & Bath. Also has optional buttons for: Time Saver, Reduced Creases, Extra Rinse and Mini Load. Depending on the options ...

I wish I never purchased the machine.

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: have spent more time hand washing my families clothes because of the machine breaking down

I purchased this machine in 2004. It was fine for the first two years. Since March 2006 til January 2007, I have had to call the repaire service out to fix themachine on about 10 times. So far the machine has had three new seals, three new drums, three new heating elements, a new balance block put in the front, and I've lost count on the number of sets of bearings it has had to be replaced. When the bearings go in the machine, the noise is unbearable. ...

Goes On And On.

Advantages: Very reliable
Disadvantages: None

We seemed to go throught washing machines like nobody's business. My mother told me I killed them. Then about three years ago we bought this Ariston A1435. On the front it has the name Margherita. It is a 1400 spin speed. It has an energy efficiency of A, a washing one of A and a spin one of B. It also has a self cleaning pump. On the front panel is the detergent drawer. Then there are five press in buttons. One is the on and off button. One is ...
...drum with washing, so you can spin it when you are ready. Then there is a rapid wash button, which reduces the length of the wash programme by about 30%. Then there is the stain removal button, which makes the machine carry out a more intensive wash. Then there is the prewash button, you can use this on all programmes except the wool one. There are also two little lights on the front, one is the on-off light, to show basically that it is on. The ...

You Spin Me Right Round Baby…..

Advantages: Energy Efficient, 7kg Capacity, 1600 rpm
Disadvantages: None so far

Our washing machine is, without a doubt, the second hardest working thing in our house (after me, obviously..lol) so when our previous, and somewhat geriatric machine suddenly died on us without warning, a replacement was sought without delay. My research as far as choosing a new machine was unscientific - I drove to our nearest Curry's and asked them to show me what they had in stock that I could take away there and then. I had a few to choose ...
...the comparative features and prices, I ended up with the Ariston A1637 in the boot of the Passat. Installing it was easy as the plumbing was all there from the previous machine. It was simply a matter of connecting the cold water feed, routing the waste water pipe, plug it in and away you go. At that point I thought I had better read the instructions…oops, pull it back out and remove the transit fixings. Run an empty cycle….ok, now I'm definitely ...
