thanks people, a very varied response!! at least it shows we all dont sit on the fence!
Found 4 that all look pretty similar, have any of you had any good/bad experiences with any of these:
Indesit WD12X
Electrolux EW1000i
Whirlpool AWM045
Hotpoint BWM129
Baumatic BTWM4

All about the same price, £390ish fully integrated

cheers again

Washing machine-Best Performers and where to buy cheapest online Help needed!?

I have Indesit and am happy with it, although it is not among best-buys.
Siemens is more expensive, but it is the best according to Which?extra. However, it comes with 5-year guarantee: http://www.siemensappliances.co.uk/site%2FGuarantees%5F265%2Easp :think:

If I remember rightly...Bosch had 2 in the top 5 !

For all those people who think that hot and cold fill are better than cold only why not write to the likes of Bosch ( who I assume spend£££ on research and development) and tell them they have got it wrong, also ask them how the cold fill only machines have a A+ energey rating.

To Grumbler, well I dont know how much you would consider a tiny amount, but what I meant was that it is tiny compared to all my other machines. To Glenbat, go for a Bosch, I was advised headtedly against a whirlpool, my last one was Hotpoint, and althought this used to be a good brand, apparently in the past 5 years, they have been using cheap parts which mean they are less reliable than previously What decided me was my OH was always complaining about the washer being noisy ( Hotpoint) so as Bosch actually advertise that their washers are "quiet", I bought one. And yes, it is quieter than others, but I would not say it cant be heard at all. I'm pleased with it anyway
