    Is the SMS63E02 a model you would be happy to recommend?

    It`s a good dishwasher suitable for family use with good programme options, it`s kind on the water and electricity usage as well. With it`s two year warranty, yes I would recommend it 😀

    Re: Portable mini washing machines

    Hi

    I know nothing about the Pyramid machine I`m afraid, you would need to contact the seller for that.

    The Zanussi compact however would require plumbing in just like an ordinary full size machine.

    The only other option I can think of where you can use taps would be a Hotpoint twin tub if anyone has a reconditioned one for sale. Good robust machines now getting on a bit, but if you can find one in good nick it could be a good buy.

    HTH 🙂

    Hi Clint

    Classixx range is 12 place, Exxcel is 13 and the Logixx has 14 place settings. For your budget of £400 you would be looking around the SMS63E02 which is 13 place setting.

    As for suppliers, Bosch no longer give the .com companies the large discounts like they used to do and local independants are now able to compete more strongly on price. You will also get expert advice, installation service and peace of mind. Take a look at your local Bosch independant dealer you might just be surprised.

    HTH 🙂

    Re: Portable mini washing machines

    Hi

    Looking at the machine here listed by Jacksons camping and priced @ £68.99. I would say that given it`s load capacity of 1.5 kg and the market it`s being aimed at it`s probably only good for a few “smalls” while you are away.

    Now I don`t know how big the Pyramid is but you may still be able to pick up one of the Zanussi ZWC1300 compact 3kg machine which has a 1300 spin speed which are ideal for small residences. They still do need plumbing in but like their larger counterparts will give a proper wash and last a lot longer.

    HTH 🙂

    Hi

    Bosch produce three ranges the Classixx which is the start range then the Exxcel which will have a few more options with thirteen place settings and use slightly less water. Then at the top of the shop there are the Logixx machines again slightly better energy consumptions and an option of the cutlery tray in the top of the machine to free up bottom basket space and a massive fourteen place settings. Just depends on what sort of budget you are looking at really.

    Hi cornfield 17

    I would take a look at this article on consumer rights about a quarter way down which explains the six year issue before you visit the retailer 😉

    A lot better than some of the other`s out there at the moment. We sell quite a few and yes they are more reliable than their washing machines.

    Re: Second-Hand Fridge/Freezer & Washing Machine Advice!

    Hi

    Buying second hand appliances is always a risky business as they are sold as seen. If you happen to know a friendly engineer who would give them a once over for you on a chargeable basis it could save you a problem later on. As far as price is concerned I always say that items like these are only worth what someone is prepared to pay, so haggle some more 😉 to get a better deal.

    Check out your local retailers for second hand machines, buying from a reputable dealer will give you peace of mind and they will come with some sort of guarantee.

    Hi

    Unfortunately UKW is unable to advise on DIY gas repairs. The “sticky” at the top of the forum should point you in the right direction though.

    Re: Replacing built in oven and hob – gap required?

    Hi

    There is always a sufficient air gap around all built in ovens. Oven widths are 54cm while the carcass width will be 56cm. You will also get sufficient gap along the top as well. If in doubt just check the installation instructions that come with each oven.

    HTH 🙂

    Hi squadman

    If you have a direct Bosch account I think the minimum turnover they require is 6K per annum.

    A thread from a little while ago here may help as well.
