Before you call anyone in to repair it, have a look here

My washing machine handle broke too and I very nearly bought a new machine. But I undid a few screws and got to the handle. I found the part number and ordered it from that website. Cost me £10.20 - much cheaper than a new machine or engineer!

Yes this happened to me too. The new handle just cost me a few quid. It's worth a try to either fix it yourself, or ask a friend or neighbour to help you. Don't be despondent!

Glad you're feeling better now.

the bloody handle on my washing machine broke, so basically the day before i go away (near enough) and i have a load of wet washing stuck in the machine. and worst of all, all i can do is sit and sob over now having to pay someone a fortune to fix it or get a new machine. i knew i was having too good a week for it to last

Be inventive! This happened to me & I opened the door on my machine for about 3 years with a spoon before it finally gave up the ghost!! It depends entirely on what sort of machine it is of course, but you never know.

I guess I also mean it's never as bad as it seems, keep smiling

If it makes you feel any better I dropped the phone the in the dogs water bowl today....totally kaput. Turned on the grill....no longer working and then the letterbox fell off in my hand. And you wonder why i've blown a fiver on a bottle of wine!!!!

Hope today gets better for you xxxxx
