    You pennypinching BTL-exploiting Rachmanite! I bet you don't provide a Miele dishwasher for your tenants either.

        The only problem with that is you would waste loads of time shopping including trying on the clothes before hand.

                Inefficient, complex design, liable to failure.

                Two options with a machine - get a cheap one (e.g. Beko) and accept that it may or may not last < 5 years. Option 2, get a Miele at around 3-5x the price, but pretty much bombproof and guaranteed for 10 years, so hopefully will manage 20.
                agreed I used to rate Bosch but have heard bad things recently.

                We have a Beko and the cats love hearing it sing to them when it finishes. Must be 2 years old now, the hotpoint before kept shorting out.

                  As part of the pending upgrades to the palace, we're having the dry cleaning facility replaced. Not sure on the cost but it's bound to be a bargain, especially when you see the outfits I've designed for the Latvian birds who'll be working in there.

                    I hope you wrote a review pointing that out.
