Buy European: Miele, Rex Electrolux, Beko (Turkish, don't get into that), Smeg, Candy, AEG, etc...

Don't want to jinx it, but my Electrolux washer-dryier is 7 years old and still like new, despite being relatively cheap and despite combined machines being more problematic.

Candy

Buy European and not cheap

Our super cheap Candy (Washer and a drier) has been going for 5 years now without issue 🤷 Though i'd buy a different brand if i had to again and wasn't pressed for money, I am definitely surprised how well it's doing.

I had a very different experience with the brand (washing machine actively trying to kill me, for exemple)

Maybe there's a difference between the different factories making them ?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

that could be, or maybe I got lucky. In any case, I'm not complaining. i remember it was like 750 bucks for both machines, and with other brands it would have been 800-1200 for a single machine
