Oh Oh by the way, that was 6 years or so back (and I am not sure how old the machine was before that), so new machines maybe different. | ||

H Axis Top Loaders
You might be surprised to learn that H Axis machines have been sold here since at least 1963 or 1964 although they have never been that popular, I think virtually all the major UK brands have carried them at one point or another (maybe not Indesit) and they are still quite commonly found on ebay. For many years from the mid 1970s Philips were the most widely known models.
However, they are much more popular in Europe, perhaps their compact size making them popular with the (good) European habit of putting washing machines in their bathrooms. Like all machines there will be good ones and not so good ones, but I think really the only major problem are the flaps you need to open to access the drum, these look like they could be quite stiff if you have weaker hands. And if you are short you might find it difficult getting that last sock or pair of underpants out of the bottom of the drum. I doubt I would buy one new but there are plenty of Miele and bosch versions out there which should last a reasonable time. Oh, the other disadvantage is that, of course, you cannot watch the wash while it is taking place ....... Al | ||
