![]() Friends of ours in Sydney have had one for 14 years. It has been incredibly reliable only needing a pump and hose in that time, which he did himself. I'd suggest that, provided the electronics are fine, it would last and that non 'electronic' parts such as pumps etc are easy to do.
Have a look at your friends - I bet that there will be an issue with either the pump or a hose for it to leak that badly... | ||

Had one for 5 years![]() Hi Norgechef,
We have owned one of these washers for the last 5 years and it hasn't missed a beat, have been very happy with it,all the Turbodrum function means is that the pulsator turns in one direction, the drum turns the opposite way and the 3 mini wings on top of the pulsator turn around as well. I find it has a good rollover of loads, however I would advise if you get one do not put too may items with either long sleeves or long legs in one load as the load will tangle, otherwise no issues with tangling. Hope this helps you decide. Cheers. Steve. | ||

My moms aunt has had hers for about 10 yrs and its still going strong. I think hers is a 9 or 10kg but it has a decent capacity. Here in SA we get an 8.2kg, 10kg, 13kg 15kg (think the 15 has been discontinued) and the new 16kg has just come in. I had the 8.2kg for about 2 yrs. It was good and the stuff always came clean but I sold it because with the small drum it wasn't worth keeping | ||
