Indesit dishwasher IDL530

Quinny_2

Don't know if this was a good deal,but given all the circumstances of other retailers,I think it was ok.

Our Candy dishwasher packed up the other day,after 7 years of hard slog in our house.It could be on up to 6 times a day at weekends,so I think we had our money's worth out of it.

So looking for a replacement on t'internet,I found the Indesit IDL530,seemed good value,and the prices ranged from about £185 to whatever you were prepared to pay.Most retailers then charged you for delivery,and only offered a 1 year guarantee on it.Plus,if I remember correctly,Indesit are part of the group that owns Candy,so I would think some of the parts will be similar.

But John Lewis were offering it for £199,free delivery,and 2 year guarantee on it.Plus I found a discount code,bagging me a further £10 off the price,making it £189.

For a brand of appliance that's been around for a while,I don't think that was bad.And even if we only get 2 years out of it,with a similar workload to our now deceased one,I think we'll have done alright.

Sure you can buy the likes of Beko,and other relatively new manufacturers,but what about longevity?

I feel fairly pleased about this,but I'm sure someone will know I could have done better.........

you're not allowed to post the codes on here even if in the discount code board.. which is silly but the rules..

on this note though I think indesit have a decent rep so it will probably be fine.

they do not have a good reputation for reliability speaking to people in the trade.
i think it would be worth going for a better brand such as bosch which come with a 2 year manufacturers warranty

this is true, since indesit merged with hotpoint, no end of machines are coming back to the place i work. half of them with huge clamp marks in the sides straight out the wrapping, the other half stop working within 1 yr.

go for a bosch, miele, AEG etc.

APJ

Which? report in washing machines lists Indesit as below average for reliability. As mentioned, Bosch and Miele come out as above average on reliability.

But then they do cost a lot more!
