I was thinking about a Hoover as a friend has one but the reviews for drying on John Lewis are pretty shocking and I am ideally looking for something that can wash and dry a full load 2-3 times a week. It seems as though the older versions were better than the new ones.


In a world free of budget constraints I would buy only Miele kitchen goods, but at ?1299 their washer dryers are pretty expensive!


Currently thinking about Bosch as it's a Which? best buy and has good reviews on JL - http://www.johnlewis.com/bosch-wvg30461gb-freestanding-washer-dryer-8kg-wash-5kg-dry-load-a-energy-rating-1500rpm-spin-white/p1979720


Sorry, I also don't know when I became such a boring person!

That's correct Loz. I probably only need a machine with a 4kg wash capacity so my intention would be to buy a machine with say, 8kg wash capacity and 4kg drying capacity so that I can do one wash/dry load without having to empty half of the wet clothes before drying.
Ellem86, a Miele is best, but mid range Bosch are excellent value I would say, having had both. You should not put wet clothes in a drier, you will short it. A rapid spin for longer than 2 mins at 1600 and using a full spin after washing synthetics, when the spin is shortened, will reduce your drying time considerably.

    • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent service! We had one of Paul Edgley’ s team come to fit some new lights in our living room. They were able to come at reasonably short notice, arrived on time, were friendly and professional, and did a great job. Everything was left clean and tidy afterwards, and the lights look fantastic. Highly recommend! Paul’s contact details are 07802 627967  
    • For Plusnet, I pay £31.99 for Full Fibre 500.  (the number is the line speed you have paid for) I have recently recontracted.  Always phone them up, and ask what deal they can do for me.  Usually get a decent reduction.  Sue, I would suggest you call them, especially if you are close to contract renewal.  Sometimes they will change deals mid-contract, as I have found in the past.      
    • The drivers generally have the same set area to cover every day, so they're fairly easy to follow - quite often on bike. They organise their drops to maximise how many they can do within a given time - there's actually software at the depot to do this before they set off - so they tend to follow the same route. Certain addresses are delivery hotspots, some have two or three drops a day from the various couriers. It all adds up doorstep deliveries being incredibly easy to target. I suspect Vladi's neighbour hasn't had their fake parcel nicked, not because of their security, but because the thief simply wouldn't have seen the driver stop there, so there's nothing to steal. The losses are factored in, driving prices up for everyone, and the drivers are treated abysmally. It's a dreadful business. It needs regulating.   Sorry, cross post with Angelina and Alec1
