Zanussi WJD 1257

[silverpixie1uk]

Hi, I just bought a WJD1257 washer/dryer for £186.99 plus delivery from the Comet auctions, it has small dents and scratches in both sides but is guaranteed for 12 months please can anyone tell me if this is a good machine and also if the cosmetic damage (which won’t be seen in situ) is liable to affect the working of the machine.

Many thanks,
Lynn

A veritable bargain Lynn 😀

I suppose it depends on how much the charge is for delivery. 😉

Thanks Martin, I had hoped so, as I really wanted a Zanussi or a Bosch as that what I have at home (this is for my better halfs place).

The delivery charge Bryan is £29.99 does that still make it a bargain?

Thanks guys
Lynn

Yes , still a very good price but will there be anything extra to pay for installation/connection of new and disconnection/disposal of old appliance ?

Re: Zanussi WJD 1257

Ive got my spirit level ready and a willing son to do the installation, I’ve supervised a few in my 51 years with little problem but I am hoping he can remember how we blocked off the hot water fill at my house last year because this is cold fill only the same as mine. Its a bonus that the controls are very similar except I have a separate dryer so I wont have to stand around scratching my head remembering how it works. 😆

I am trying to find a suitable home for the old machine which still looks like new and works well, hoping to find a harassed Mum (been there 🙄 ) or a skint youngster starting out that I can donate it to for free rather than having to sell it. (no room for messing about with storage)

I must thank you all so much for this site, I have learnt so much about my appliances and what to do and not as the case may be, you are all hero’s :tup:

Normally the tap in the off position would be enough but given the quality of taps used these days I don’t trust them at all 🙁

PM/Email me your address Lynn and I’ll send you a blanking nut and seal, I’ve got loads of them 😀
