    Our washing machine probably has broken seal/leaky pipe. Seems it almost as cheap to buy new washing machine as to get it repaired. Madness.

        @bazzacollins - Shame, I think you'll have to bite the bullet on this one. Eight years is good if it's cost you nothing since you bought it.

        @MikeHenson Indeed. Just a shame repairs are so expensive, as I hate throwing out an otherwise fine machine for a small fault.

        @bazzacollins - After 8 years it could well be a warning sign; the thin end of the wedge, the downward slope if you prefer

        @MikeHenson Yep, you’re probably right. And put down those clichés :)

        @bazzacollins - You're a real enigma. You used "Yep", followed this up by starting a sentence with And but then placed an accent on cliche.

        @mikehenson I'm charmingly erratic. And have a blindspot to the accent on cliche.

        @bazzacollins ours is washing clothes OK at the moment but making weird noises. Possibly metal against metal. Doing watchful waiting,

        @bazzacollins Although we did receive a reasonable amount in compensation (to fix the damage) from the repairers :)

        @chriswiles Would rather get it repaired, but not prepared to commit financial suicide by doing so

        @bazzacollins Had a similar thing with one that was a few months past warranty...I'm sure my parents' one lasted about 20 years!

        @bazzacollins We had ours repaired and it promptly blew up and water leaked everywhere. Never again!

        @bazzacollins just buy a Miele & consider it a 20 yr investment. Business case says yes.
