We're new to the area & London, and are wondering who/where we should buy a washer and a dryer from? We need separate machines.

Also, any recommendations on energy-efficient ones that have short 30-minute cycles, and don't continue to beep until they're shut off 🙂

Thanks! 

Which magazine is the best for recommendations. We purchased a Miele in 2008 from PC world which is still going strong. Prices now over £1000.. Prior to that we had a Zanussi for over 10 years. Bosch is good, Hotpoint's are usually rubbish (my stepdaughter has got through 3 in less than 10 years)

We buy most of our electrical from PC World  or John Lewis.  

I have a Miele washing machine which I'm very happy with, but I did get it at a good price when it was on offer.

No bleeping, and it has a twenty minute wash at 40 degrees which is fine for most things, but lots of other programmes plus you can give things an extra spin if you want to save on drying time.

It has never gone wrong (I'm probably tempting fate by saying that!)

I would never use John Lewis again for electrical goods (or laptops).  It would take too long to describe all the reasons why, but I have given them too many chances now, and never never again.

For my fridge freezer I checked out the models physically in John Lewis, but then  bought from AO. And no I didn't think that was unfair of me, because the customer service I got from John Lewis on that occasion also  was abysmal 😡

    • Moving into a new place and need both a wardrobe and a chest of drawers, ideally collection Friday. Thanks!
    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's. 
    • I have a new fixation so any available, please let me know.  Thanks.
    • In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
