wow me i think i do not know these brands as they are inexistant in canada but they need to do something like send a massive recall letter asking consumers having the concern brands to check there model and serial numbers to see if its one of the affected models and send a tech for a free repair or inspection of the defective washer even if its out of warrenty and if its impossible to repair at least replace free of charge the faulty machine by the most recent model free of charge or a similar model close to what they have even if its another brand. If this was my whirlpool duet washer i would call the tech service and the consummers head office and complain about this. sorry in advance if i am offending anyone but in my eyes this will lower the chance of this brand selling in local markets.

Sorry for the double post *mods can merge this post with my
Sorry for double posting but what makes me sad after seeing this type of post is what cause most washing machines makers to eather close down there plants or merge with other company i will use as an exemple 2 companys that makes washer dryer for canada and the us
as you all know the maytag company was bought by whirlpool force merger in that case and during the process i had bought for my mom a maytag front load washer this model to be precise see picture included and while i was looking on the maytag website i found out that there was a recall for this particular model i call my mom to let her know but it was a minor thing to fix witch my mom could fix her self the washer only needed an external plug to plug the washer to prevent an electrical fire my mom was lucky that it was not a whirlpool made model but back on topic this makes me sad also because now the maytags model of to days are to whirlpool like in desing and look when if whirlpool bought maytag toady they could at leas of keep the maytag desing for washer dryer sets. because if you look at my link you will notice that the cabinet is to whirlpool like. and the link is not the model washer in the picture the picture is there for reference to my exemple.

hotpointfan
hello hotpointfan,
the best advice that i can give you at the moment is that maybe you should have a service tech have a look at your grandmother 's washer that would be step one and then step 2 would be to judge if its worth repairing or take your grandmother shoping for a new washing machine depending on the brand you would like for your grandmother here is a link included for reference CLICK HERE TO GO TO pierreandreply4's LINK | ||

Can you 2 please stop using the forum like bloody instant messenger!! Stop posting messages that just say "e-mailed you" or, like above "do you like my new pic?". Neither of these comments have ANY relevance to the topic at hand and it's very distracting, not to mention clogging up the forum with unnecessary rubbish - a website will only hold so much! Give it a rest and keep private conversations private - what do you think e-mails were designed for!? USE THEM.
*rant over and back on topic* This is getting ridiculous. It's such a shame to see Hoover appliances like this, as they were once top of their game. How many more exploding machines will it take before Candy issue a product recall like Bosch and Beko have had to do recently? Not that I am defending either of those companies for their issues, but at least they identified the problem and did a full recall. Come on Candy, get your fingers out! | ||

Candy
Ultimafan.
I just get a tad fed up with all the negativity on Candy machines. We sell Hoover -Candy products & we sell alot of them. On the reliabily front we have not had an exploding drum let alone a breakdown call out for a long time. Oh a AW.ORG live chatroom that would be fun but it could get nasty. | ||

AquaCycle is on the right track
That's right... 10 years ago Hoover had the 'Six' range which was replaced in 2004 by Hoover Nextra (the one I currently have). I don't have any experience with the 'Six' range but I have plenty with Nextra and I can positivily vouch for every cubic millimetre of its realms of existence... and I feel confident enough to say that it's a monster of reliabilty and performance.
That's the reason why I have hard time believing that contemporary Candy/Hoover machines (GrandO/Vision series) have degenerated so drastically in terms of quality and reliability... as some on this forum make out to be. I have seen and experienced some of these newer models in the act, but not on a daily basis, and still they haven't made a strong impression on me as being so different from my faithful little monster. As for the drum explosions... the evidence we've seen speaks louder than words, it would certainly be nice to get a feeling of reassurance from a company about their post-sales practices... it would no doubt make an existing Hoover/Candy owner feel proud of their choice! Yet I personally feel I am not in possession of a comprehensive account of the state of knowledge and understanding behind these happenings... and possibly neither are most of you! | ||

what would help candy would be a redesing of there model because there was lots of recalls a few years back with aus canadian model the maytag neptune washer until maytag redesing there model that look like this but i do hope for everyone in the uk that they do resolve these problems even if for me this brand is unknown but i do know that around the 70 i think hover twintub washers where sold in canada as 1 of my aunts own hover twintub.

Regardless of brands its Candy thats in the spotlight now
At the end of the day Candy/Hoover machines are exploding and its something that cannot be ignored or brushed off with a replacement machine and some small compensation, what if a child simply walking past the machine as it explodes was injured or killed imagine how that parent would feel knowing something that should be so safe and should definitely not explode and kill their child,
Candy needs to open their eyes and realize that these explosions are beginning to happen more regularly and they should begin thinking about major recalls/replacements of a new machine that will definitely not exploded, i am not a fan of Beko or any of their products but i do admire the fact that they are actively doing something about their FF problem, we have one such FF that is affected and i have reported to beko and they shall be sending and engineer to replace the faulty component, with regards to Indesit/Hotpoint explosions i have not heard of any in some time and i understand that indesit has had a better approach to solving the problem than Candy Did/Does! again this is just my opinion but i would not like to hear of someone being seriously injured or killed when their Candy/Hoover randomly decides to explode, eventually it will happen and candy needs to take action now be for it does. in regards to Hotpoint/indesit having the same internal parts, true however i do not buy hotpoint appliances because of the name or their previous history, what i look at is style and performance and for me the hotpoint washer meet that requirement for me, ive used candy washers i had a candy washer and i would go for a hotpoint of a Candy any day, in my opinion the last good Candy washers were the late 90's early 2000's Alise machines which i loved. Candy has definitely left my good books as a good washer manufacturer. Luke | ||

budget brand in canada and us
i would say that each continent have there own budget brand like if i look in canada, and us the budget brand would be inglis washer dryer. Set and its also my humble tough, that we should let this thread die and also. For those who do not know this know that starting familys, or someone starting out in life can not afford to buy one of these fancy brand of appliance. They have to go by the budget they have they are lucky if the brand they like, is on sale and within there price range but its not the case for everyone.

Nrones-i agree with you in the sense that you love Candy as i love Ariston, Ariston has taken quite a few batterings on this forum for lack of quality however with my experience with any Ariston washing machines Ive come into contact with have been perfect workhorses that get on with the job and dosnt fuss. i also understand that Candy markets their machines differently depending on the country so we cant tar and feather all candy machines from every country for being bad quality as most of the time they are good machines, however the situation in the UK needs to be addressed by Candy. Ive had alot of experience with candy and i used to own one and it wasn't a very good machine if im being honest, it was a day old and had to be repaired which is unacceptable. and in a way Nrones is Lucky the Candy as he knows it still exists and my Ariston is Almost completely gone and unless i move to Australia any time soon IL never in person see a new solely Ariston Branded machine which is quite upsetting.
regarding Bosch being a high end brand that people wouldn't diss is ridiculous, Ive had bad experiences with Bosch washers also so their not perfect either, much like candy and ariston aren't perfect it all comes down to personal preference if you find a brand you like you will defend it no matter what, and also if i had a bad experience with say a Miele washing machine i would not hesitate whatsoever about coming on here and complaining about it because Miele is so glorified on this forum and honestly sometimes it does my head in. i know miele are good but they to can fail just like any machine. this is my last post regarding this thread bottom line is Candy/Hoover machines are exploding it needs to be addressed soon. | ||

this is my last post as well in this thread but all i wanted to say is what ever the contry or brand of washer is there are time where brands have some minor problems from time to time that need to be resolve and if you check your warrenty papers for your washers some manufacturers eather offer limited lifetime warrenty on there drums or wash basket (washbasket *toploading washers) or 10 years on drums or wash basket so if problems ocurr with the wash basket or drum these should still be under warrenty. so maybe it would be a good thing to read your warrenty papers to see if its true
