    Hope you get what you want. It is just a washing machine though. I am learning so much since i stopped being a full timer. I used to waste so much on brands. It is so good to get value for money now. I love it.

    Miele are a very good brand. Even the travelling bars are machined, rather than being pressed steel. And they're very quiet. Very, very quiet...

    What the heck is a travelling bar? is this something to do with hearses? (am utterly lost, but it doesn't take much).

    A washing machine has a drum which rotates, so it has to be free to rotate. Obviously this would bang around during delivery, especially when they kick the machine out of the back of a moving van, as they do...

    Travelling bars lock the drum in place during transit. You have to remove them once you've installed it.

    No, it's OK now. They've taken off the bit where they told you how many individual spin-cycles a given machine had...
