Hi.
Looking for advice please regarding purchasing a replacement free-standing washing machine.
Two person household – both retired. Not a totally soft water area, but certainly not hard.
Payment by Credit Card (for Sec 75 protection) and no Extended Warranty.
Must have an OOB sensor as the missus WILL try and wash a single Bath mat and then wonder why it won’t spin! Wimmin!! :rolleyes:
Possibly considering the Beko WTK62051W https://ao.com/product/wtk62051w-beko-washing-machine-white-76346-1.aspx or similar.
Currently have a Beko (EcoCare?) which is about 15 years old but the drum bearing is beginning to ‘complain’.:(
I have read the Great Washing Machine Swindle topic together with many of the replies – very informative, along with some of the other guides so I am aware of the issues with sealed drums.
Thanks.
One of their narrow depth models. You could do a great deal worse for more than twice the price at 199 quid. Sealed tank of course but at that price that is not a great surprise though the Beko sealed tank is pretty good, better than Indesit and Hotpoints in my opinion ( came across 600 quid retail priced Bosch with a sealed tank that failed on bearings at 4 years old, young couple no kids, so that is bad ). Check this, but although it gets 1 year warranty, if it is registered within 90 days (?) you get a free year = 2 year warranty on a 200 quid machine so that is a good deal. Check programme length times too. All things considered if I was in your situation I would go for it.
