Re: Electric hob
For £150 and under you will only get one of these I`m afraid John. Cheapest in a 70cm I can find is the Baumatic at around £350 which is a very similar price to the CDA which Chris suggests.

Re: Looking for a new Fridge and Freezer.
Purpleurza wrote:Hay Don,
Can you estimate the difference I could expect energy consumption and cost wise between a tall combi and two seperates. Also which tend to be “better” – chest or upright freezers?
According to Bosch spec two appliances would cost £48.12 a year while the biggest fridge freezer they produce would cost £36.96 p.a. obviously the storage in the latter is not as large as the two seperate units but it does give you an idea.

I realise I don’t live down in exeter but if I was to walk into your shop with £700 in my pocket (see already you’ve had me push up my budget), what would you recommend to me? I should probably mention that we would realistically need less Fridge space than freezer space. Our current combi is 180ish upright 60/40 Fridge (I think), and the space in there is fine for us.For more freezer space than fridge, I would look at the Bosch GSD26N01 largish freezer and the KTR16A21 fridge this combo would reduce your budget back to about the 6 mark. Or to go even bigger on the freezer the GSV30V21 but then the budget gets bigger also.

Re: rowenta iron not heating
Hi Adam
Long time no hear 🙂
Sadly there are no parts available by looks of it, normally small appliances are disposable products once out of guarantee. You say you “acquired it” probably whence it came from new it was duff which is why you have it more than likely. You could try Rowenta customer care direct on 0845 602 1454 they may be able to help.

Re: Looking for a new Fridge and Freezer.
Hi Purp
Seperate items will give more storage capacity compared to a combi just be aware that the electricity costs are higher by running two seperate machines.
For your budget of £600 you would expect to get a pair of Beko`s or a pair of Indesit`s by upping the budget to £700 odd you could purchase Hotpoint by going again up to £700 you could get Bosch not to mention Liebherr but that`s another ballgame altogether 😉
The AW23 compares favourably to a Bosch Classixx machine except that you can have a five year warranty included if you wish. The service is provided by a local engineer, who will in most cases will be the same one who installed it and the price of parts are much cheaper. More info can be had here on the ISE website.

Indeed 🙂
Re: Please Help – Need a new Fridge/Freezer today!
Hi
The AEG compares well to Bosch in fairness, Siemens is the next brand up from Bosch ( same group though ). Liebherr would be first choice everytime followed by Miele.
A local independant retailer may be more helpful and sympathetic, Retra dealers go the extra mile, they could worth a phone call.

Re: KENWOOD KDW12SS Dishwasher
Hi
Bosch / Neff are still among the leaders out there when it comes to quality appliances at a sensible price. Their reliability is much better than most.
Neff give better value for money IMO with the same two year warranty.

Re: intergrated washing machine?

By installing an integrated machine you have a matching cupboard door fitted to the front and the kick plinth along the bottom, which I must say does give a nice clean look in a run of units. However the “look” does come at a price. By spending the same budget on a freestanding unit you will have a better quality machine.

Re: bosch dishwasher
Hi agro
If you paste your ENR no. into the search term on Bosch / Neff spares you can get exploded diagrams and part no`s.
