I'd say 2005-2006, month more, month less. Pure crap, almost the same as my Whirlpool washing machine, I'd never ever recommend one of those | ||

The second was given free as a replacement as the repair was uneconomic. | ||

I know of an Ariston! Hi there, I have seen an Ariston in a local yard, it isn't rust and seems repairable. It's not my thing so I haven't saved it. If your are near Co. Donegal you will be able to drive and get it no bother. "irishmark", I thought you had no "time for washing machines"? HA! | ||

@ ultimafan In Europe, Hoover is owned by the Candy group since 1994. Elsewhere it is just a name of Techtronic Industries, a Chinese conglomerate | ||

... In terms of ranking when it comes to washing machines, I place Whirlpool above Hotpoint and Zanussi, and just below Bosch and Siemens. Of course Indesit, Haier and the million other brands it comes under come last in my book. | ||

A few years back i could not fault whirlpool washers. Most of the problems started when they changed the drum design & started putting plastic drum lifters in them. since then the main problems we have come across are the bearings failing & they has been alot of problems especially on the door interlocks ie doors not opening after the machine has finished on the higher spec machines.

Well dex where i live here in Cumbria we dont really sell many drum action top loaders only if a customer is short on space so i carnt really give a verdict i think the top spin speed is a 1000rpm. but we do sell quite a few more american agitator ones we have lots of guest houses & hotels around here but we must point out that the usa top loaders dont have heaters built-in so they must have a good supply of hot water.

Dex American style top loaders have very quick wash times & they can hold quite a large amount of laundry. They are ideal for towels,sheets & bulky items which is why they are a good choice for hotels & schools. Plus places like that tend to have plenty of hot water available. They dont rate very high on energy efficiency & they have a very slow spin speed of about 550rpm.

Yes they are reliable. We delivered one today for a customer but i was a little concerned because the customer had there own water supply so when we plumbed it in i tried it out to test for any leaks. I soon realised that they had a very low water pressure supply so it is going to take forever to fill because these washer take one hell of alot of water. I think the wash performance on a scale of A TO G is about D & the energy efficiency is the very worst at G.

wash performance is bad That is something that must be excellent on every machine.. Otherwise I don"t understand the point of buying a WASHING machine.. I would never have such machine if it has low wash performance!! | ||
