After the disastrous Bosch machine, I looked around the net and read some good reviews for the Whirlpool. We bought the Whirlpool for 220GBP cheap compared to 379GBP for the load of old Bosch. The Whirlpool is A rated energy efficient but here's the secret it does get water. Whirlpool has washed food stains, soiling (some quite heavy from sons DIY), cat odours from his blankets and everything comes out fresh and clean. I have owned this machine for nearly a year and half, and have never had a problem. The synthetics wash is excellent,, 30 minute quick wash does socks and undies and the cotton wash cleans. The only disadvantage is that a larger family would need the 6kg so size does count. I recommend this machine to a couple or small family with a limited budget. P.S. There are plenty of 2nd hand Boschs for sale but very few Whirlpools. My neighbour has had one for some years and has never had a problem.
