people stop buying these, yes they are cheap but there are others out there just as cheap with better customer service and more reliable products and if we keep buying them they will continue as they are doing today. To cap it all they are in the middle of the worst ever recall and people still buy them. Is so bad that you have to feel for Gerald Ratner he must see how people still buy these products and wonder how telling the truth about one of his company's products ruined him while every day this company continues to sell in such large numbers.

Beko is a similarly priced but better alternative!

This is the same company that also sells under the hotpoint brand. Buy cheap, buy twice and have a worse product. Save your money and buy something better. You will have a better product that not just is over twice as reliable but will clean your clothes better, so you will get more enjoyment every day.

If there are better machines out there just as cheap then how come you've not posted them? It's obviously not because you're too busy :wink:

samsung had a recall lately but people are still buying them i bet if samsung offered a miss price on an s8 you would take it and not worry about any past recall ?

You need to spend 2 times more for better washing machine, so irrelevant comment... Try to post a deal for better choice around same money or bit more, so we could have a choice... sorry, you never had a time to share a deal in 8 years here, so doubt you will find any now

Nice comment from someone who has posted only 4 deals :disappointed: isn't everyone not busy on the site.
remember the sites code of conduct to be nice to every one :disappointed:
I've had a hotpoint with no issues for over5 Years. Used 3 or 4 times a week. This is a bargain, almost worth buying as a spare!

Over 60% more - without even delivery charge included, only 6kg capacity and same warranty.... think you should try better. I didn't know that Beko is considered as a premium brand now :smiley:

I own this beko 6kg, bought January from coop eBay store new for £159 delivered, this is not a cheap deal from Curry's, they have raised the price and beware it is very small, good for 2 people max. otherwise a good machine.

Indesit (Ariston/Hotpoint owner) was bought by USA company Whirlpool, don't expect them to have updated their outdated Whirlpool-INDESIT GROUP ITALY policies based on EU Directives from a pen pusher at the head office in Michigan. Perhaps email the Chief Executive of Whirlpool his company EU subsidiaries warranty policies are not complying with a EU Directive and he needs to address this Whirpool EU warranty policy and EU Directive non-compliance: jeff_m_fettig(AT)email.whirlpool.com

Only thing with that is, it's the store not the manufacturer liable under EU warranty policy.

If the manufacturer wont repair/replace free, demand a NEW replacement from the retailer - both parties are liable at certain timescales and a manufacturer will usually do a freebie within 2 years DIRECT with consumer as goodwill as it is liable via the retailer/seller/trader anyway "If the trader agrees that your X is faulty, they must repair or replace it free of charge. It is up to them to settle the matter with the manufacturer."
