    Re: Halogen discontinued……Ceramic swap?

    Hi

    Belling cookers with halogen rings were for the better off customers due to their price point being higher and as such were not big sellers.

    Twenty years ago when those models were made the life expectancy of such a cooker would have been between eight and ten years. So after eight years the manufacturer would have deemed the machine to be obsolete and would have let the spares run out naturally.

    I have not had a customer in the shop in the last ten years with a request such as yours but then others may have.

    Re: Vorwerk Kobold VK130/1 Vacuum Cleaner

    Vorwerk is a little known German made cleaner which used to be sold by agents on a commission basis.

    That said there are a few online sellers nowadays but the service does seem rather sporadic. The only UK lead I can find would be to phone 0333 014 3333 for a user manual and support.

    Re: AEG Lavamat turbo protex – help finding NTC Sensor

    Hi

    The attached explosion might help i your quest. The NTC is position 470.

    Trouble is unless you have worked on one you are not going to know. These AEG washer dryers are not that high in volume which is probably why there has been no responses so far.

    Re: Washer dryer for single person

    Hi

    Taking your budget and requirements into consideration you are not going to better a Hotpoint.

    That aside could you not at this stage get a better washing machine like a half decent Bosch and add a dryer later?

    Re: Basic, Simple Washing Machine

    Hi

    Your sizes are pretty much standard.

    I would take a look at the Beko WTG620M1W. It’s as basic as you can get at a fair price, spares are reasonably priced as well.

    The other choice in my book would be the Bosch WAB28161 better build with a two year warranty, spares are a little higher priced but worth the extra you pay for the machine.

    HTH 🙂

    Re: New Bosch WAN24100GB No fab cond smell at end

    I had this a while ago with a customer. If I remember correctly these models like most other Bosch machines take the conditioner at the start of the cycle according to Bosch technical.

    One way to check is to carefully open the detergent drawer early into the wash cycle to see if this is the case.

    We suggested an extra rinse and spin after the wash cycle with a small amount of conditioner which seemed to do the trick.

    Hi

    Sadly we are unable to advise on gas DIY repairs forum rules here explain the reasons.

    You will need a Gas Safe engineer to carry out this type of repair. You can source one from our own network of engineers here if you don’t know of one.

    Thanks for understanding.
