Been to Currys today and have ordered an Indisit they're out of stock at the moment but getting more in next week, so because of that I don't have to pay the delivery charge! I've had Indisit before and I had it years before I got the technolec.

Hi Venice,
John Lewis appliances are Electrolux products made by the little swan company in China and a couple of them are made by Beko

From my own experience "Indesit" is a very trusty Brand, i bought a 2nd hand one off Crocdundee about 2 years ago and ive not had one single prob with it.

i always buy the cheapest /on offer new machines and expect to write them off in 2 0r 3 years--if i get more out of them then great.The one that last us the longest when i first got married was second hand--maybe because it had less washing than years later with 3 kids.

Hope I'm not going off topic too much here (it is laundry related) but which tumble dryers are the best, the condensers or the vented ones?
Also, Cameraman do you only work for Hotpoint or do you also do repairs on washing machines in people's homes too?

Hi Pegsgirl, inbox is empty so could it be your end ?

Hi Elizabeth,
The vented dryers are better at drying the clothes but can be a pain with the hose and you can also suffer with condensation. Condenser dryers take longer to dry the items but they are more convenient.
I'm actually a service engineer and work direct for Hotpoint/Indesit visiting peoples homes but in my previous job I worked on ALL makes and models of appliances such as washing machines, dryers, cookers (gas and electric) dishwashers and all refrigeration from Hotpoint, Hoover, Whirlpool, Beko, LG, Samsung, Zanussi, Electrolux, Admiral, Maytag etc
