I’ve no doubt that Haier and almost any other Chinese manufacturer can produce quality items. In fact, I know that they can, just as the Polish ones, Russian ones, Turkish ones and all the rest can. But if they produce good quality items then you almost may as well have bought in Europe in the first place anyway.
The problem is that they produce to a price, not a quality and this is probably largely dictated by the large retailers.
It’s a shame as once a brand name is tarnished, especially in this industry it would appear, it takes years if not decades to get a good name back again.

Unfortunately we’ve been given no details about them.
However, in the warehouse i did see TWO Haier dishwashers today.
I’ll not be selling them…

Trouble is half the floorspace in this shed is now taken up by machines at this pricepoint..because it sells. If i hear the line “But i can get a new one for £179 ” etc,etc from one more punter i swear i’ll projectile vomit in their general direction little brit stylee. Wot angers me most is its usually when youre trying to genuinely help by keeping an old zan or hpt going for modest cost which you know will easily outlast the crap they spotted in saturdays sun.The amount of these type of machines thrown out at 14 months old with a coin in the pump is probably vast. The sad fact is a high {e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of public will always go for cheap as poss.. Environment..waste of resources.. most truly dont care. God this is my first post & ive made myself glum.. 🙁 🙁

Working for their big rival I have never been so pleased to see the words ‘Only available at Comet’ in all my life!

Thanx guys. Nobody but other engineers can understand !! Even the wife ignores me..mind u thats got nowt to do with the job.. Brilliant site tho.. the things customers do posts had me wetting myself. I truly thought i was the only one to have been “attacked” by a pensioner with his 5,000000 candle power torch he got in Aldi. The reflection off the drum you have your head in is something else.. Brilliant.. Eddie. 😆
