Hi

With washing machines then really I have a simple rule - Miele is the best by far and are really the only machines to have if you want a machine to last a serious amount of time. But if you really can't afford a Miele then Siemens would be a VERY distant 2nd place.

Anything else is a lottery.

Please be wary of some people's advice and general reviews as often the general public have a very isolated and limited experience of domestic appliances. I have been in the industry for more than 20 years, working for manufactures, retailers and for the last 14 years my own business.

Good luck

Current make and model and what's wrong with it? W/m's are modular, they're almost always repairable-what matters is if they're economically repairable.
For that budget I'd be looking at a mid-range Bosch, not sure on drum sizes for your particular requirement.

I recently bought a Bosch WAQ283S1GB (model recommended by Cisco above) and I absolutely love it, best washing machine I've ever owned. It's extremely quiet (important for us due to open plan kitchen layout), has all the programmes I need without being unduly complex, and has really useful features, for example allowing you to pause the cycle and unlock the door if you find a stray sock that was supposed to go in, also a 'Speed Perfect' setting that reduces the time of any wash cycle. It was about £400 but the cheap Indesit I had before that was rubbish.

That's all well and good, but the OP has a budget of £420. The only way she might be able to buy a Miele is to buy one second hand - and you'd be just as well buying a new Bosch rather than a second hand machine of any make.

If you can find one, get a Bosch. You should easily be able to find a decent 1200rpm one within your budget.
