New Washing Machine

[Matt B]

Hi. I am after advice on a new washing machine. I am replacing a Zanussi 1471W which we have had for about 8 years (bearings have done so the inner drum has ground away the plastic front outer drum).

After reading the site i would like a split drum, 6kg (ish) capacity with a delay function. Two adults and two kids (6 and 2 years)

Thanks 🙂

Hi

Great to see you have done your research 😀

Bosch WAE24377 7kg 1200 spin or it’s partner the WAE28377 with 1400 spin would be my choice. Both have split drums with delay timer and two year warranty. Price wise around the £330 mark and up.

HTH 🙂

Hi Don

Thanks for the post on the Bosch machines 😀 Can you also suggest a machine near the £500 mark ? Or is the extra spent not worth it ?

Hi

A compromise may have to be taken I’m afraid.

Miele WDA101 you can replace the bearings if they fail but has no delay timer. Be warned that Miele service is restricted to themselves, very few independents will be able to help.

I have looked at a few Siemens machines but they the ones I checked all have sealed drums but in the main do have delay timers.
