Hi - The time has come for some new Kitchen appliances. Fridge Freezer, Washing Machine and Tumble Dryer. Any brands to avoid? Any recommendations?
I have a work colleague who sells Baumatic - never heard of them but are they any good?

I had a beaumatic oven and hob. I left them with my sons mother 12 years ago so they must be going on for 15 years old now lol

Miele if you can raise the dosh -- but only if you can get 5 or 10 year parts and labour warranty free. Excellent machines, long design life, well constructed -- but parts very expensive and not generally available through third party suppliers.

If you come down to the Bosch/Siemens etc. appliances the quality isn't as high but they're reasonably well made and parts are readily available at reasonable prices from Bosch.

Was told Samsung are pretty good fridge freezers, so we have got one it seems ok does what fridge is suppose to, but will have to see in time if they are as good as what I've been told.

A couple of weeks ago we bought a 'NEFF' oven (made by BOSCH) and Ms Gadget is well impressed with it!

We have only just moved into new build house with built a built in electric AEG electrolux oven and grill oven, and my mum keeps burning her arm on the door when using the top oven/grill, wen we went to look at the fridge freezer she saw a I think it might have been neff one where the door slides in wen you open it and she wants that. I like the current oven as it has several settings for the top oven and the bottom oven has an assisted defrost function but cant work out how it works
