repairing washing machine...when is it not worth it?

[melbel]

If it is still under warranty I would be asking for your money back as it is obviously faulty.....it is your choice as to how you take a refund etc in the case of faulty goods...don't let them fob you off with the we will repair only bulldust.......
Then I would go and buy a new one...you obviously got a lemon!

I am with Melbel - except I'd make them replace the machine with a new one AND a new warranty - its just not good enough!!

I'd buy a new one when the total repair bills are 50% and the machine is no longwer under warranty.

i should say that the motor was replaced the second time under warranty from the repair man, not bosch sorry!
