We have just purchased a new washing machine the Hoover Whisper 3AAA 1300 Spin from our local Curry’s store for a reduced price of £357.00. Our old washing machine had gone and it was time to invest. Our previous make was also Hoover so we had no hesitation sticking with Hoover, since that washing machine has lasted us a long time. The first thing I noticed about this machine is that it looks good, it looked good in the store and even better in my kitchen. It’s all computerised and all the button are neatly displayed on the front. It’s got a big bowl in comparison to our old Hoover and can accommodate up to 6kg of washing which is quite a lot. The washing machine is also a whisper, I thought it was bit strange calling the washing machine that but true to its name, it’s very quiet but a bit louder than a whisper especially when you spin dry your clothes. Our old Hoover was very loud so it was quiet strange to hear such a quiet washing machine. For all it’s technical looks the washing machine is very easy to use, you read off the number you want to select, the washing machine sets the timing and the washing machine is ready to wash. One of the excellent things about this washing machine is that its got inbuilt handwash features so I no longer have to wash ‘special’ tops on hand because the machine washes them on hand for me……if you know what I mean. A full load of washing takes just over an hour but I have found that after the programme has finished, that is the washing done I have had to select Fast Spin to dry the clothes. They have been left a bit soaked for some odd reason but it maybe due to the fact I am just getting myself used to the machine. During a wash you can select Fast Iron, which makes the clothes less creased, Extra Spin an option which I have been selecting, and you can set the washing machine to start at a particular time. The clothes howev
er have looked very clean, I can’t believe how clean the whites have been I don’t think my old washing machine cleaned them as much. The first time I used the washing machine I really was shocked how well it cleaned and still I can see the difference. The washing machine is a standard fit as the sales assistance said and is very easy to fit in. Although, many of the stores do offer the connection service for a fee. Ask when you buy. Overall I am very happy with this buy I saved over £100 on the washing machine as I bought it in the sales and it does its job really well even though I am still finding my feet with all the setting. You also get 1 year guarantee and the option of extending that and it comes with a 5 year part guarantee but make sure you send the form off within 30 days of your purchase.

- 17/01/05 Please see what happens in a few years time. I have also seen comments (on the Comparestoreprices.co.uk site) about their machine lasting 18 months when 2 bolts sheered off.

- 06/01/02 the last washing machine lasted for 12 yrs, it was my parents and because we couldn't afford a new one when we moved into our place they gave us theirs as they got a new one. so it lasted a long time. |
