Give your clothes a servis wash

Advantages: User friendly, gentle wobble and gets the job done
Disadvantages: can rattle a little if not on level ground

...I, like most people have a washing machine and, like many others, it is always on the go due to my delightful little cherubs who think nothing of dirtying their clothes even as they are putting them on. So, like a lot of others, I tend to go through washing machine like a ?Stonehead? with the munchies goes through mars bars. Anyway, as I had tried many ?branded? names, which all failed me in the end, I stumbled upon my latest washing machine which is made by a company I was not too familiar with called ?Servis?, and, up to now, this ?Servis? machine seems to be standing up to the constant abuse that I am throwing at it. ** TECHNICAL BITS? * White casing being 600mm wide by 530mm deep by 850mm high * Front loading washing machine with a 4.5 KG load capacity. * It has 7 ?normal? setting and 9 ?delicate? settings (16 in all...

Review of Servis M3094

Service not so good from Servis!

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Needs a shove to get it going, long cycles and quite noisy

...Everyone will know that when your washing machine packs up, it is a major inconvenience. I shouldn't complain as up until buying this Servis M6002, my faithful Zanussi had served me well, and so had the Zanussi previously. The first lasted me 13 years and the second one 9 years, so I cannot complain! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ CHOOSING A MACHINE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I was all set to buy another Zanussi, but unfortunately I did not have the money at the time, due to Christmas, garage bills etc, and desperate for a new washing machine, I had no choice but to look at cheaper makes and models. I settled upon the Servis M6002, as it seemed to meet my requirements and was a decent price, at £220. I also remembered I knew someone who had a Servis washing machine which had given no problems. The washing machine was available in two colours, white and silver...

Life In The Freezer - David Attenborough

Advantages: So interesting, fun to watch, educational
Disadvantages: I want more episodes!!

...I really love 'The Life Collection' from David Attenborough. The complete series of 'Life in the Freezer' was the third dvd of the collection that I bought. The series itself has six episodes which are all on one disc. They were originally transmitted in 1993. The six episodes are: Episode 1: The Bountiful Sea - All about the Southern Antarctic Ocean and the species in it Episode 2: The Ice Retreats - About when Spring comes and the wildlife coming back to land to breed. Episode 3: The Race To Breed - How seals and penguins have to breed quickly before winter comes round again. Episode 4: The Door Closes - The disappearance of food as winter returns and how the wildlife have to migrate before this happens. Episode 5: The Big Freeze - How some animals stay and live in the extreme conditions and how life continues, against all...

The Servis Wash!

Advantages: cheap to buy
Disadvantages: slow spin

...I have had my Servis Washer about six months now. I paid £169.99 for it from Comet. It was a shop floor display model so I got £10.00 knocked off. It was cosmetically sound and all parts were present and correct so I thought it was ok! The Irrelevant Bit We have only lived in our house for about a year and had the privelege of moving in to it brand new. I loved the kitchen with its Wood cabinets and chrome accessories. Another thing I loved was the fact that wires for appliances were connected straight into the wall, without the need for plugs, then you had a switch, like the ones you have with cookers, to turn it on! Excellent and neat! But not ideal in this instance! The Relevant Bit! My washer had come with a BS 136a 13 Amp fused plug. Unfortunately it is a safety plug and to wire it up would mean removing it!! This would...

Review of Servis M3011A

A reliable service from Servis

Advantages: Compact, modern-looking and simple
Disadvantages: No extras, can be a little noisy

..., and the kitchen was more of a kitchenette, so our mission was to find a fridge-freezer that didn't take up too much space; height was not a problem but the width was crucial. I also wanted one with a stainless steel effect (as real stainless steel is very expensive!), so we jumped in the car and headed down to our local Currys outlet. We found what we were looking for almost immediately. Among the mass of fridge-freezers was a small, narrow, stylish stainless steel-effect fridge-freezer, which fitted our criteria perfectly. The price was also (just) within our range, at £245.99, which sealed the deal for us. The model in question is the Servis M7262S. Although the brand name comes secondary to the specifications of the unit, it does help when you know they have a decent reputation for being reliable, which is why I was so pleased when I saw...

Would You Like A Good Servis

Advantages: Price, Reliability, Ease Of Use
Disadvantages: None

...with my washer. Money was also an issue and I couldn?t believe my luck when I came across the ideal solution in my local co-op store. ~~~~ THE DRYER ~~~~ It was a Servis, Model number 2001. It has a traditional white cabinet and looks quite sturdy. Some of them give the appearance of being ?tinny? but this seemed well built. I wanted a full size one as that would hold sheets etc. I also wanted one that had reverse tumble action as this ensures the clothes are continually tumbled first in one direction and then the other. This means that the hot air is used to a greater effect, the clothes are dried more easily and less electricity is used. If there is one thing that I hate with a passion it is ironing, tumble drying helps immensely in this department. When you?re looking for a dryer check if it has a cool down cycle to finish off...

Servis M6011 WASHING MACHINE. 1100rpm

Advantages: owners handbook is pretty handy-clear and easy to follow(buttons light up green)
Disadvantages: find it hard to get the right size load(noisy if incorrect)

...just had to on this occasion. I went online to a well known online catologue store and was 99% expecting to be turned down flatly for credit as in the not too distant past I had been refused .....,something to do with the credit score or something.......???? Anyway -Browsed the store......saw a machine...Servis M6011 .....I was just looking for something affordable ,something that looked ok had a standard specification-nothing to technical just something that washes your clothes-I mean, mood I was in ,anything would do!!! But no there were a few that made it to my final list and finally I narrowed it down to one -the M6011. It came in at £219.00 if interest free,I chose that option worked out about £4/£5 a week for a year. I thought that this was one or to steps up from the very lowest budget machines it looked a little nicer...

Arctic Cooling Freezer Xtreme

Advantages: Excellent Heat Dispersal, Very Quiet, Ability to attach northbridge heatsink for better cooling
Disadvantages: Very Big, Awkward to Fit

...In my Custom built PC i use a AMD 6400+ with Windows Vista ultimate X64, I tend to run Video Convertions on my computer for home videos but noticed with the stock cooler that my processor was hitting 77 Degrees C and Idling at 48 C. So i began looking for a better Heatsink and fan that was both quiet and efficient. After sifting through lots of different Coolers i came across the Arctic Freezer Xtreme, which the details of the Product on air-flow etc showed it would be very good at the job at hand. the details are... ? Cooling performance ? 160 Watts ? Unique twin tower 102-fin heat sink design ? Effective heat dissipation via 4 double-sided heatpipes ? 1 ultra quiet 120mm PWM fan ? Patented fan holder eliminates the buzzing sounds ? Voltage regulators and north bridge cooling ? Pre-applied MX-2 When i fitted...

Review of Arctic Cooling Freezer Xtreme

super servis! with freebies

Advantages: cheap to run and buy
Disadvantages: cannot wash bulky items like quilts or large blankets

...My model is the m3101a I bought my Servis m3101a about 6 months or so ago and it?s great. It cost me £199 from Littlewoods catalogue and well worth it. I was going to go for one of the larger washer manufacturers washing machine but decided to save some money and go with the cheapest as my washing machines all break down after a couple of years any way (cheap or not) It was easy to install pipes were all colour coded and it was all well explained in the user manual. If in any doubt consult a plumber though When you first install it the door is extremely sticky It took me an age to open it to get my first load done! Persevere it does open eventually. ENERGY RATING I believe the rating for it was energy a and its definatly lived up to that. It?s wonderfully cheap to run which is ideal if you do more than one wash a day...
