Sounds like you need to get it serviced - they're never quiet but you should at least be able to hear each other speak!

ooh don't know then it's not hotpoint is it by any chance? ours is an aquarious, been doing it for about 6 months loud on a spin esp fast spin - assumed it was old. (nr 3 yrs)

The shock absorbers on your drum need replacing!!!
This is all coming from DH who has a thing about washing machines!!!!!

WigWamBam · 26/11/2005 19:06

Does he mean the brushes , jayzmummy?

snowfalls · 26/11/2005 19:07

Could be the bearings

superblastofflips · 26/11/2005 19:08

YES it is (how did you know??) as its a hotpoint aquarius 1000 de luxe

If it happend when its spinning then its definately your "shockies"....they are on their way out and need to be replaced....the longer you leave it the more damage you will cause....DH is on a role here drawing diagrams showing me how they work!!! Ive got a washing machine nerd for a DH!!!!

Brushes...not bushes

WigWamBam · 26/11/2005 19:10

A washing machine with a bush ... the mind boggles

munz · 26/11/2005 19:10

lol@ JM - ooh is that expensive?

sup - cos ours is the 1200 model aquarious, I thought it was the drum a bit 'loose' but as it washes fine assumed it was cos it was gettin old it's our first.

superblastofflips · 26/11/2005 19:10

JM - can you pls ask your DH it is worth buying the shock absorbers or get a new washing machine?
