AIBU posting this here but Washing Machine recommendations please!

[StillinPJsandwhat]

Need a new washing machine! Not fussed on budget as long as it’s bloody good! Don’t care if it’s ugly as will be in a utility.

Also, tumble Dyers please!

Both mine have given up today and need new ones!

I have Bosch for both abs very happy with them, they are use daily. Though I did think the dryer wasn’t drying.. didn’t realise I had to fine adjust it to get it hot!

J9hn Lewis tumble dryer - love it to bits.

If budget wasn't an issue I would always opt for Miele. A family member has had hers for 15+ years and it is still running properly and not repairs needed so far. She also moved three times since.

We have a broken Bosch Vario Perfect that lasted 3 years before refusing to heat water, the way to get it to complete a cycle is to add hot water to the drawer, however it still only works on a couple of programmes. Would have fixed it but the bearings are also on the way out. I would no longer recommend Bosch as I expect more than 3 years from a washing machine. Third Bosch, last one leaked, a lot, even after repair. No more Bosch for me now they are no longer made in Germany, they are just like all the others, no quality.

We were given a Candy Grand O condenser dryer which I wouldn't have chosen but it works fine and I have no complaints although would have chosen a vented one.

Zanussi 10kg. Awesome. I need a 10kg dryer to match it though

Also there was a very recent thread on exactly this that you might find helpful :)

If money no issue definitely Miele. My mum has had hers for 30 years or so. Still rumning well.

Ooh Kinka can you share a link

My hotpoint washing machine has been brilliant. Reasonably priced and also found reasonably priced for repairs. Can't remember how long I've had it but guessing 7 or 8 years. Had one repair - vaguely remember something to do with spinning.
