I want to buy a new washing machine.

Hi, i have owned a Beko washing machine that has finally given up the ghost.

I know from years ago that some machines are the same inside but with different fronts put on them. Does anyone have insider knowledge of what names to look for that are good quality but at a cheaper price. I would buy a Beko again, unless someone can suggest another brand that is better for a similar price.

This looks ok i think?

Always shopped for Indesit, cheaper brand of the Hotpoint family, and I've found them very good (1 washing machine, 2 tumble dryers in 10 years).

On the subject of names:
Indesit, Creda and Hotpoint are the same family (Ariston)


Lifted from t'web:
Electrolux: own well over 50 brand names (though not all of them washing machines) Among the more well known ones are AEG, Tricity Bendix, Zanussi. Currently, The Electrolux group also make the John Lewis brand washing machines.

Candy: own Hoover, Zerowatt and Kelvinator among others.

Merloni: own Ariston, Indesit, New World, Philco, Hotpoint, Creda, Cannon, GDA, English Electric,Thorn (and many others)
