Dorset reclaim is a good idea - and I'm on WTC until my new job starts....washing machines start from £50 with £15 delivery. I'd then need it installing (it isn't a straight plug in job, the wire goes into the wall into a kind of plate with a switch in it) so I'm guessing another £40 - £50 for that.....up to £115 at a minimum, depending on the washing machine price and there's no kind of guarantee with it........

BB, why would the machine need to wired into the wall? It should be a straightforward supply to the machine so could be fitted with a plug.

If your only connection point is a fused box in the wall its only a case of taking the front off and connecting ( with the power off! ). Yes I know that Regs say you are supposed to fork out for a Qualified Electrician, but

pepe - too many horror stories on beko for me.

Erm,...........I seem to have made a purchase My neighbour works for a small independent electrical shop so I've had a chat with them and I've spent a lot of money They had a couple of choices I could have had on Saturday morning but they don't have one I want in the shop at the moment (sold this morning :rolleyes:) but it will be delivered and installed next week and I am happy to give my neighbour the key to the house - sod's law that I'm going to be back at work full time :rotfl:

Oh well, can't go back now.

And I bought a washer dryer..........I've invited the spawn of the devil of white goods back into my life........:o
