I bought a small cheap washing machine, a temporary measure until I get
the tuits to reorganise the house. It cost £200, extended warranty £70
or thereabouts. So I pointed out to the sales-droid, when I lived in a
small flat I was spending over £300pa at the launderette, so if it
lasted a year I would consider it good value, after which I would
probably be replacing it with something better. Comming up to two years
now and still ok.
