Ours has conked out again and we've decided this time it needs replacing
(preferably before the laundry bin is full again!)

Can anyone point me at a decent, unbiased "Which?"-type site where I can
read reviews to help me decide which model to go for? All those I've
found through google so far seem very much dealer-led.

Right now we haven't even decided between condensing and vented - from
reading around this it's not clear to me which, if any, is the more
economical to run? Given that I already have a ventilation hole through
the wall, is there any justification for a condensing model?

Then maybe I should be thinking about a gas one - how much cheaper are the
running costs (given that presumably they need CORGI'ing every year for
safety?

Thanks

Hi mine was a white knight which was 8 yr old, conked out but I wanted a
silver one this time and opted for a Zanussi
condenser ( considering for the last so many years i have been hanging hose
out of windows lol, I thought this best option for me)
Since then The heat that comes from it when its on is wuite a lot, no steam
though and the water holder takes approx 600 mins to fill
up. So far so good its 3 mth old, My Zanussi washer is now on its back legs,
so will have to replace that soon, i have had it since 1994.
