I cannot see the logic in buying a mediocre washer for £200 with sub standard wash performance and water ecomomy with a 2 year life when for £441 you can have a AA washer with a 20 year life?
Miele 500
[edit] all the Meile washing machines are designed to 5000 wash cycles not just the expensive ones. As for Indesit the older machines where great, solid built and had good longevity. The new cheaper ones are crap and the chassis folds under its own weight in many cases. Contrast this to the Miele which makes me fold under its weight
Is
this your machine andy?
