    Re: Zanussi ZJD 1219 – E40

    I think my old machine has the same problem. Is it difficult to replace?

    I can get the lid off the top but I’m not sure how to get the external casing off the machine.

    Re: ISE10 1607 vs Miele W5740

    Thanks for the reply.

    I have read (and obsessed) over the ISE10 spec. and I am quite impressed.

    I was kinda wanting to see peoples own rational of A over B.

    I’ve actually tried to get hold of my local dealer (Leeds) to discuss getting one, got an answer machine and as yet I’ve not had a call back (5 days later). It sounds like a one man band.

    This has kinda put me off the ISE10 as if it’s this hard to get hold of one then what sort of service can I expect if it has a problem.

    The Miele has the same price tag and it’s features look on a par with the ISE10. Including the 10 year warranty.

    Re: ISE10 1607W Dimensions

    Thanks.. I now know that the Meiles include a 32mm gap. I just hope the ISE10 incorporates a similar gap or I may be forced to get a Meile instead of the sexy ISE10.

    Re: ISE10 1607W Dimensions

    My old machine actually measures as 540mm.

    I noticed that Meile spec up the size of the machine they stipulate (includes gap from the wall). What is this standard ‘gap from the wall size’ and does the ISE10’s depth include a ‘gap from the wall’ when it stipulates depth? Or is it the actual depth of the machine itself (if that makes sense).

    The gap from my wall to the end of my work surface is 595mm, but the drainage pipe is at the back as is the water inlet pipe which protrudes 40-50mm or so.

    For what it’s worth Meile are currently offering free upgrades to a 10yr warranty by redemption on some models.

    I’m currently in the same situation, trying to decide between an ISE10 or a Meile. Trouble is my machine is bust and I’m bagging up my washing and have family doing it for me. I don’t know if I can hold out till Nov 5th :(.

    Haha pity that that is only a washer.

    What an idiot I am.

    Just cancelled the washer for a refund.

    Total pain in the arse to cancel the extended warranty though, I have to ring a premium rate number who then tell me it’s not on their system and to ring back another time. Shame on you John Lewis.

    I was thinking of taking the 5 year warranty for the extra £75 squid.

    Assuming that I cannot test the insulation, are there any onther things I can do to diagnose this? Are there other things that it could possibly be?

    (In other words can we skip this insulation test step and assume it’s ok)

    “Do you have a test meter that is able to test the isulation of the product?”

    I have a multimeter, what should I test? Do you mean isolation or insulation? If so, howd I go about that.

    The E20 would happen consistently until I replaced the 3 way valve, once it was replaced the E20 did not reoccur.

    The drain filter is clear and I have already replaced the drain pump a few months ago, prior to this the machine wouldn’t drain. It now completes the wash cycle with no drain issues.

    Would I be wrong to suspect the condensor being blocked? If I do need to clean it, where is it and is it a difficult job?
