Hi Guys
Well just before Christmas I moved into a new place with friends, this will hopefully be my forever home for now after a few years deciding where i want to be. Of course we had to fit the place out with appliances. We got a few donated things like a fridge and a broken dishwasher (joy). The rest I hunted out. I purchased an Indesit W1102 front loader washing machine from a second hand place. I bought this because I enjoy the way they wash and I believe with the correct care, it will last a while. It was pretty much as new condition, a few scuffs here and there but the detergent drawer and door seal rubber were in perfect condition. it works wonderfully for our needs. I also decided to splash out and purchase a brand new dishwasher in the Boxing Day sales. I purchased a Whirlpool. Basic but does everything we need. That was delivered this morning. I had to rejig the laundry room a small amount for it to fit properly but as you can see in the pictures below it fits in nicely. My kitchen leads off the laundry room so is only two steps from where the dishwasher now lives. Enjoy the pictures. I don't want to hear any bad words about Indesits, it was affordable and I am happy with it, thats all that matters. Matt |

LCD Screen / Rinse Aid light.
LCD Screen informs you what temperature the water is in the dishwasher at any time. If you turn the machine on with no water in it (setting up before starting) it will tell you the temperature inside the dishwasher at the time. Also has time count down and progress display. I love it, nice and simple yet informative in more ways than i need. |

A toast to your new purchases!
Just make sure those flat mates know how to use a front load machine to get the most out of it and help make it last ;) As for the dishwasher, according to Choice they are made in China. It must carry some sort of country of origin label - it is a legal requirement. If you can't find it, check the power plug near the prongs. These are moulded on, and while it is feasible that a manufacturer could buy the cord and just attach it, it is unlikely they would do this and ship to another country to just ship it out again....so if it says 'made in china', that's where it's from... |
