Washer dryers?
"Peter" wrote in message ... Servis are very low quality and very expensive to repair so if you get one think of it as a disposable. Oddly enough, I've never had any problem at all with Servis. Until recently I had been renting for a few years and the landlords always provided Servis washing machines and fridges. Never had any problem with any of them. John. Well its like the old man smoked 80 a day since he was 12 and died at 108 never did him any harm If he didn't smoke he would have lived to 120 and be able to walk more than 500 metres at the age of 65 and over. |

It would have been cheaper to go to Argos and buy new Candy (faired well in Which) or Bosch (on offer at the time), and with guarantee. But then you have to shop at Argos......... You don't say...... Dreadful place. Is it worth getting over engineered products in a throw away society? In many cases it is not. In this case it is, It wasn't. Over 30 machine years of fault free quality machine running is a compelling reason to me. -- ..andy To email, substitute .nospam with .gl |

Owain It seems to be one of these businesses that can't make up its mind whether it wants to trade on line or from warehouse stores. They don't intend you to contact them by phone because the numbers are well hidden. I saw people with lurid lime green carrier bags leaving one store, and vowed never to venture in there. There seemed to be a lot of chav products in the window....... -- ..andy To email, substitute .nospam with .gl |
