    Re: Recommendations for an integrated washing machine

    That’s great to know! Our house has concrete floors, so it should have a very sturdy base. I’m thinking of maybe the WDA111 for £619 from John Lewis as it has a 5 year warranty with it 🙂

    Hmm interesting. We do indeed have white shiny units so it’d probably fit in nicely. I have no problems with cutting the plinth covering underneath the washing machine. I know the cavity is about 60cm wide with maybe 1-2mm either side of the integrated washing machine. My main concern would be the vibrations when on a spin shaking the units to bits. Would it need more clearance? I would of thought both an integrated machine and a free standing one would be similar clearance wise.

    Thanks for the reply 🙂 The dryer in this unit is crap and I certainly wouldn’t of chosen to buy a washer/dryer myself, it was included with the new house. I’d personally rather splash the cash for a meile free standing unit, but the cavity for it to fit in is too snug on the sides I fear. Their integrated units are just too expensive for us at the moment.

    I’ll be looking to just get a normal integrated washing machine.

    Thanks for the reply. I found a place selling the part online and it was £204. Factor in labour costs etc. surely it would be almost the same price again as replacing it with another new cheap model.

    I might be wrong and the part is a lot cheaper elsewhere. Or it might be more expensive as its a washer/dryer.

    Sadly I don’t think we can stretch to over £700. Its a shame there isn’t a super basic one in this price range thats more reliable. After all, we only use maybe 1-2 settings on it!
