I do agree. But its hard to find an old one these days. I think mum had her hoover? for 20 years.

I've got a F & P as well and I've had it for over 9yrs now and have never had an issue with it, never broken down or needing repairing and now it does at least 1 wash per day and on sheets and towel days it can do up to 5 loads.
I was only thinking recently how lucky I've been that I had never had a problem with the machine in all this time - I think I paid $350 for it all that time ago, best money I've spent. Although I've probably jinxed myself now ;)
Well I just picked up my new washer :D
I applied for a no interest loan through the government to get that & a Vax (OMG, love!). I applied for the biggest they had in my price range (2 items totalling $1500 I am allowed to apply for). So it was a 9kg Simpson for $999. I LOVED the look of the 10kg Fisher & paykel but couldn't do both with it being $1299.
So my loan got approved... on the week that they had a sale. I was approved for $1448... with the sale on both the Vax & the washers I paid a whole $28 & upgraded to the 10kg Fisher & Paykel wash smart!
As you can imagine... grinning :D Pretty much saved a whole $300 right there!!
Hey Clover how is your new washsmart F&P going? I need to get a new washing machine and was considering the 8kg one. Or an LG or a Samsung lol!
Loving it so far. loving with the 10kg if I get behind on washing it only takes 3 loads to catch up :lol:
Haven't had a problem with it so far... better not either!
A friend just got a samsung I think. The difference in them & the reason she chose that is because the F&P only comes with 2 years warranty, her Samsung came with 5.
