I tend to go for cheaper makes when it comes to certain goods.Some of them perform very well.
A friend bought a top brand american style fridgefreezer for £800,it broke down after 13 months.
My £200 LEC is going strong after 6 years.
You don't always get what you pay for,i know that from car tyres when i was a mechanic and tools/paint no i'm doing building work!
Maybe what i should have asked is what are the best of the cheaper makes?

There are always exceptions to any rule, we all know of the heavy smoker who can tell us about a relative who lived to be 100 on 60 fags a day, but it doesn't convince me to start smoking. You may get an occasional lemon even if you pay a decent price for it. You are far more likely to get a pile of junk if you pay £200 for a washing machine. look to spend £375 to £450 if you can possibly afford it, for a Bosch or similar which includes a full 2 year g/tee.
