Hi Susank

I bought an LG Washer/Dryer a couple of years ago and have been very happy with it. I was originally going to buy a Bosch as my parents swore by their 8 yr old one, but on advice of John Lewis sales assistant and which/washer help review, I ended up settling on LG one and have not regretted the decision.

The direct-drive technology is fairly new to the market, however as many repairs are due to the drum being damaged due to heavy loads, direct-drives have been found to be more reliable as they don't shake. Another bonus, which swung me, was that they are extremely quiet on a spin, which is a great help living in a flat. Cosmetically, it looks good, with a chrome door and easy to use nobs etc. Since I've bought one, several of my friends and even my mother in law, have since purchased on. LG are massive over in Asia but it is still easy to find spare parts here too. I think my one (WD 12311RD retails currently for about £400 - Co-op Electricals supplied me).

Hope that helps

Thank you for that - I have one in my basket in Tesco for delivery but was not sure - it seems to have fast washes and presoak etc and its a hot and cold fill as we always have hot water from a multifuel boiler and free logs! - I really could not find anyone with one but I will buy it now and am happy they are quite reliable by the sounds of it.
