Whirlpool washing machines

Overloading your machine can cause serious operational problems

If you only wash up to four loads per week, either of these will serve you well.

They are cheap, reliable and wash very clean. Drum rotation is noticeably more frequent than with some machines.

Year on year the whirlpool brand has proved to be very reliable and in my opinion as a service engineer with many years experience, is a very good investment.

The Whirlpool AWO/D5516 or AWO/D5716

These models have all the functions of any good washing machine and if looked after, will last for many years.

The Whirlpool AWO/D5516 or AWO/D5716 has an energy rating of A+, a wash performance rating of A, and a spin performance rating of B.

It has 18 programs including Quick Wash.

Extended warranty

Extended warranties are a bit of a buffer against things going wrong.

The cost varies with the brand of appliance you buy and is a good indicator of what is reliable and what is not so reliable.

The cheaper extended warranties obviously reflect the more reliable appliances.

Go to any good online shop and make comparisons before you buy.
