Hi


We are planning to move shortly to our new house and need to buy a few white goods such as a refrigerator, washing machine dryer and a dishwasher . Ideally want to buy all three from the same brand to have a coordinated look and feel. Any suggestions of a good reasonable brand and also outlets, websites where I could get good deals for home delivery.


MAny thanks !!

To the best of my knowledge, John Lewis won't match online prices.


If you are concerned about matching, I assume you are going to have the appliances on show rather than hidden, so you will want to consider aesthetics as well as as efficiency and reliability.


Why not google Which Best Buys in your price range for each appliance (or at least which are their Worst Buys, so you can avoid them), make a shortlist for each appliance, then choose one brand which comes near the top for each appliance?


Then you can google the cheapest price for each appliance (you don't need to get them all from the same place necessarily). Though look at online reviews for the places you are thinking of getting them from, as customer service is important too, not just price.


If you want to see them in the flesh, Curries in the Old Kent Road seem to have a much bigger selection than John Lewis.


Having said all that, John Lewis's own brand appliances are often quite plain and nice looking, whereas some of the others are in my opinion hideous, unless you like things like bright red logos jumping out at you all the time :(

They do, provided the business has a physical shop somewhere in the UK. I got a online price match from PRC Direct, on the basis they have a small shop in Ilford.

Another recommendation for Bosch. I think the more basic the model, the longer they last (in my experience). My dishwasher and w/m lasted forever with no problems, sadly I had to give them away when I moved house.


Have heard good things about Miele too, if your budget allows.

    • It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters up north. They also happened to be leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about his politics. Corbynmania was thing, a movement but it was also the making of his downfall. For the many and not the few came back and slapped him right in the face. 
    • Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃
    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded
