If you get a washer/dryer combined - DON'T get Ariston. |

Any more suggestions, we are going out to look at some stores today after he has shortlisted some washer dryers from the reviews and info on line. |

Morning Liz, |

thanks jgee, will see what he comes up with from reviews on line and then compare with suggestions here. Lots of sales and special offers on at the mo but he is fairly methodical about sorting out the pros and cons etc. Might take him a day or two but we won't be smelly, have enough stuff to last us lol |

There's a Hotpoint WDL 540G on Comet Auction line, closing date Sunday, highest bid is £200 at the mo. Not sure he will buy from there tho, he likes to check what he buys first and doesn't like buying online. |

Got a Hotpoint, only a 1200 spin speed as realised the old one was 1000 so figured didn't need a much higher one, as that did the job and a friend who is a washing machine engineer told me the lower the spin speed the longer the machine should last! |

Happy with it so far, let's see how well it performs on the bedlinen later today. Got all the undies and socks done so he won't run out now and all his work stuff too - it's a fairly easy machine to use once you get used to the different buttons etc. |
