White goods by ease of repair?

” I was wondering what white goods are somewhat easy to repair? And are certain brands better than others in terms of repairability? Are certain appliances easier to repair than others? “
A big subject this with lots of pros and cons.
The easiest machines to PHYSICALLY repair I find are Vestel washing machines, so the Pro Action, Royale, Montpelliers and about 20 other brand names that are made by Vestel but as you see are sold under a variety of trade names. The problem is these machines tend to be scarce, the parts can be scarce, and they tend to be cheaper machines and so are destined to end up not being repaired least in the area I live ( Reading ). So they maybe the easiest to repair but you just might not be repairing many or any. PLUS the disadvantage of most spares tend to be farmed out and sold through Partmaster where you will, or could be hammered on prices and availability.
Bosch washing machines entry level to medium level machines are fairly easy to repair too. Spares a-plenty too, Bosch spares website the best using the proper part numbers so you can easily X ref top the likes of e-bay to compare prices – lots of alternative parts with lower prices too such as motor brushes and door seals which are good quality alternatives. A lot of Bosch spares pricing does not make much sense..
Not much point stocking up with Indesit / Hotpoint / Hoover / candy parts as these machines are under a 10 year parts warranty and have been so for the last 5 years or so but thety are fairly easy to work on. But there again I go to them none the less for small jobs such as motor brushes because the cost of the parts and my labour charge is about half the cost of their labour charge irrespective of the punter getting the freebee parts from them so a brush change from me is 55 quid as opposed to around 115 from them.
Miele, Smeg ( older models ) modern AEG for examples are no place to start for the beginner – for example you diagnose wrong on a Miele where parts are very expensive and you can drop yourself in it big time and can easily wipe yourself out. So do not go there, I don`t, and I`ve been in the repair business for 37 years.
Keep away from dishwashers especially Bosch Neff and Siemens ( and Hotpoints, Indesits and some Zanussis ); repeat problems with the very common heat pump failure, then as typically happens after 3 months ( or under 3 minutes ) the part fails yet again. I gave up 35{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of my business due to this stuff about 3 years ago as just not worth the grief and none of them are particularily easy to work on too. May have been designed by too many people doing a corporate group hug whilst under the influence via the pub?
Beko are usually easy to work on and are by far more common than Vestel stuff. Parts do not cost a lot, are very commonly available and once again stick with the entry level machines to mid range – a good place to start.
To sum up. You get cheap machines with scarce and expensive parts, expensive machines with expensive parts – no surprises there! And cheaper machines like Beko with most things going for them as a good starting point.
Just a brief touch on the subject for you.
