I have a fantastic new basic washing machine, a Beko. The last one of the same make lasted me 16 years !
This new one is half touch-screen and half manual. It has a 30 minute wash which is great for less-soiled clothing or just used to freshen up. A large drum that I can get a thick double candlewick bedspread in.
All for £200 ! An absolute bargain. With delivery, fitting in and removing the old machine---an extra £60. What more could you wish for ?
