Re: Plastic paddles are ruining my life !!!!!

Thing is my hubby has checked and there is no sign of the dreaded coin, let’s face it, you get what you pay for, which in the likes of Hotpoints case – not a lot.

Re: Plastic paddles are ruining my life !!!!!

Thanks for latest post. I’m definitely sold on the ISE not IES as I called it – sorry!!

It sounds uber reliable and as quick fix says about farmers, too true, the odd foreign object is bound to get into the machine at some time and it’s up to the machine to be able to cope with it.

Re: Plastic paddles are ruining my life !!!!!

Thanks for the comments/advice.

I think the best solution in my case is to pay the extra on a make that is reliable, after already shelling out nearly £700 on in my opinion sub standard machines.

I’ve read numerous post about paddles snapping off and to be honest, I just can’t believe in this day and age the odd coin here and there can cause so much grief.

I do check pockets and am on the whole careful, and no don’t put trainers in it. So who knows, maybe it’s just me (and thousands of others???).

I’ve had washing machines since I was 22, I’m now 39, I really don’t get why since buying a new machine 2 years ago and coincidental introduction of this plastic tat I’m having this problem – never ever had this type of problem previously.

Luckily I’m able to buy something that is going to be more reliable but as for the millions of others who can’t they will be swindled out of hundreds of pounds by manufacturers making cheap rubbish appliances.

As far as I can tell it’s all about the likes of Hotpoint saving £££ and the poor consumer is left to pay through the nose, like K said it’s cheap plastic and probably snaps at the whiff of a five pence piece/beach towel.

I wish I had invested in the first place is all I can say.

IES all the way……..
