Beko WME8227W making grinding noises intermittently

Sounds like a bra underwire or something similar maybe stuck in sump-hose. Thats the hose from the bottom of the tub to the pump filter. It may be moving in & out of pump every now & again & causing grinding, either by catching on drum as it turns or on the pump impellor.

Hi Seamy, or anyone else in the know please,

This bra wire thing crops up quite a bit i noticed :rolls:

I decided i would not wash bras with a wire in the machine a few years back and definitely not in my lovely ise10 😉 .

However my sister persists in doing this and i was just wondering if the only obvious way to hopefully prevent this (apart from not washing them in a machine at all, that is) would be to place any bras in a pillowcase and tie it in? I know some will say why tie it but i know that any decent washer will get that ‘blighter’ out of that pillowcase by the end of the wash. (My 1607 washes that well that it often turns an item of clothing completely inside out or vice-verser, especially on the normal option wash, which is a 2hr+ one, what a washer 😀 )

Do you think the tied pillowcase is the best advice i can give her as she will persist in washing under-wired bras in her machine :rolls:

thanks in advance and kind regards

Hi Quickwash,

What about a net laundry bag, I insisted my Mum got one so she didn’t damage the Little Giant.

Hi oliver,

Yes i had thought of that also, but it the ones i have seen have quite big holes and the wire might, just might manage to work its way out and cause the sort of problems people are on about on here all the time :rolls: I know that the probability is pretty low but my luck 🙁

I want to look a ‘clever dick’ tbh and, knowing how my luck is, if i told her to use a net bag, especially for bras with wires, then something would happen and she’d be like “That was your fault 👿 ” and the :hitfan: (been dying to use that emoticon 😆 )

Maybe there is a bag or something similar with very small holes but believe me i know that damn wire can ‘pop’ through when you least expect it and cause some nasty damage! Like when you slip down on ice for example 😳

thanks for the reply

kind regards

No use at all for bra wires. They will come through the holes in the bag.

We use an old pillow case secured with decent quality safety pins.

You should also give them a quick once over before you put them in the wash to check on the condition of the under wires, if the are starting to show through then throw them away.

The likes of Betterware etc do a special bag for bras, one of my customers has one and says it useless. 🙂

Evening Jim,

AFAIK she has stopped washing them in the machine now. If she damages a washer at that price then there really is a problem! :rolls:

I am a firm believer that lingerie should be treated with respect and only hand washed.
I remember once having the conversation with Priest who had a bra wire stuck in his machine, his embarrassment was priceless. 😆
