OT - Dishwasher search
Hi all.
Has anyone heard of great deals going on dishwashers? I'm after a 450mm width machine with at least the following features. .. LED Display .. Delay Start .. Condensor Drying .. Salt Refil Indicator .. Height Adjustable Baskets .. Childproof lock Hoping to spend less than £250. Arthur |

You wont find a slimline digital read out or with those features for less than £300 never mind £250 thats a reliable make! I've recently learnt the hardway. The Hotpoint pile of festering poo (£269) I bought last month did 4 washes, packed up, was fixed with new pump, did 3 more washes, packed up (smokily this time) and was then dead dead. Also note Hotpoint have a thing or two to learn about running a breakdown center It has now been replaced by a Bosch (£260-the cheapest they do) with even less frills (if you can call a spinny round programme selector knob) and push button programme selector but the build quality is far infront of the Hotpoint. It does have height adjustable baskets and salt warning light though... Admittedly its only so far done about 10 washes but I have a feeling (and a prayer!) that it will keep going for several years. You get what you pay for. Tim.. |

You get what you pay for. Your posting doesn't seem to support "You get what you pay for", the Bosch cost you £9 less than the Hotpoint but, according to you at least, is a lot better. -- Chris Green |
