Hi,
I’m looking to buy 8kg Washing Machine and I need some advice on which Brand is the best to buy and reliable.
I’ve done a bit of research and I’m interested in Zanussi, Hotpoint, Beko or Bosch. We have had a Hotpoint for a long time but it’s on it way out. Any advice on which is best is appreciated. Also open to other recommendations too.Have a read here and here this will give you a feel for what is what around this subject.
Having read all that the brands you are considering are all around the mid price range by today’s pricing. Personally I still like Bosch and Beko.
Miele are still considered to be the best even though they to have gone down the split tub route. Could be worth looking at if you can stretch to the extra on the budget.
Have deleted your post in washing machine forum as it’s easier to keep replies to one thread.

Hi Don,
I took a look at the guides which were a help.
I’m trying to narrow down my choices between a Bosch Wan series 4 or a Beko WTL both 8kg 1400. The Bosch is about £450 and the Beko around £250 would you have any further recommendations on which one to choose.The way I tend to look at things when they such a big difference is that it’s priced at nearly double, so will it last twice as long probably not, will the Bosch be more reliable during it’s life span possibly so as it’s a better build.
Costs to consumer, Beko spares whether fuctional or cosmetic are cheaper than Bosch.Any good engineer is able to repair both brands so no difference there.
Overall Beko offers good value but I still have a well known soft spot for Bosch as a brand.

If budget allows Miele. I’ve got an entry level.
I’ve owned several brands over the past 25 yrs & Miele is by far the best. It also depends on your own needs but I needed a machine that cleans well (messy kids so lots of stained clothing + mud/grass stains).
Everything comes out spotless & less creased so no need to iron school trousers/skirts/hoodies etc. I never use Vanish, no need, let Miele do it’s job.
