    Re: When is Hoover NOT Hoover?

    Excuse my ignorance, but why the hell do they (YP) let it happen in the first place?

    Also, surely it doesn’t look professional for the personal actually making the advert, so why do they (company) do it?

    Re: TESCO £99 WASHER

    Comet have their own engineers. 😉

    Anyway, even the public can see that the Haier machines are rubbish!

    The Indesit (*SPIT*) is better built.

    K.

    That’s the whole reason i use it for.

    But, there’s people that just can’t be switched and are stuck in their ways.

    For someone who’s using a machine once or twice a week, something at a couple of hundred quid is ideal.

    We’ve not sold a single Haier yet, the build quality puts the customer straight off.

    Certainly.

    Customers try to be brand loyal, but what’s it worth these days?

    The only ‘true’ brand loyal customers i get now are Miele customers!

    They’ll no doubt change soon though.

    I know you’re an Hoover service agent, but you really do seem to have an obsession with them.

    I work for one of the large retailers and we get more issues with them than Bosch, Zanussi and Beko (yes, Beko!), about the same amount as Indesit and Hotpoint.

    They’re not all that cracking.

    Re: Matsui

    You’ve got to admit though, for an end user, the badging can in a lot of cases be deceiving.

    Especially with brown goods, when you see Toshiba and JVC stuff that’s basically identical to Goodmans and the likes (Vestel) but over £100 more?

    Sony HDD recorder that’s a BEKO? Sony DVD recorders that are LG?

    The list goes on.

    PS. I already know the answer.

    Jim. 😉

    Of course they are!

    Down the left hand side from the top the symbols are the cycle progress neons, Prewash, Wash, Rinse ,Spin.

    Down the right the neons are numbered 2hr,4hr,6hr,9hr. These would be used to set a delayed start time.

    Damn, i were almost right!

    Re: Matsui

    Matsui are just another case of ‘badge engineering’, they don’t actually make anything.

    Re: INDESIT WIL103 Time remaining lights

    These are combined time delay lights and also wash progress.

    I can’t remember the order of them but there’s symbols next to them.

    There’s wash, rinse, spin and end if i remember correctly, very similar to the Bosch progress lights.
