Maytag purchase ends in disappointment

We posted about a similar UK Whitegoods conversation on Friday where a washing machine purchase ended in disappointment and was only resolved when a Miele machine was bought instead.

This time ekkostar had a Maytag machine delivered and plumbed in, only to discover that the door catch wouldn’t lock. Despite the prompt arrival of the engineer who managed to sort the door out, upon its first spin cycle “the pump then made the most god awful sound like a loud chugging steam engine.”

While both the engineer and retailer were both “fantastic” and offered to replace the faulty machine ekkostar points out the when he “asked the Maytag guy about the machine and what he would now recommend. His answer was straightforward, the ASKO’s are good but simply not as good as a Miele. The retailer also advised me to go for a Miele.”

Now delighted with his new purchase of a Prestige Plus 6 W562 he describes the Miele as “by far the better engineered product and it feels as solid as a brickhouse. ” You can read the rest of his story and his surprise over the engineer’s and retailer’s recommendations over at the UK Whitegoods forum.

Help! Washing machine disaster!

“I’ve just had a washing machine disaster” says anjumanji, who apparently “put the washing on this morning, only to find the door open with half the load on the floor and the machine washing away merrily with a flood on my floor.” And now she needs recommendations for a new one – as quickly as possible.

Luckily, those at the Hitched Forum are happy to oblige, and Crantock is first with this advice “I’ve got a Miele washing machine. It’s amazing. I truly love it” she says, elucidating further that “It’ll do a full load, on quick wash, in 20 mins, and it’s practically silent”. Pink Alien makes a comment on the reliability of her machine, confirming that “we have a second hand Miele which is 22 years old and is working perfectly still (although starting to get a bit noisy)”.
