anyone getting rid of one that works? mine has stopped spinning for some reason :(

i'm up to my limit on freecycle for this month(cos i keep posting for friends) so i cant post to ask
 
ok no probs, i rent mine, £4 a week, its great cos they fix it if it breaks
 
yeah i used to rent mine from a place in Clayton, until i got this washer given about 5 years ago, had the one from Clayton for about 8 years and never ever had to get them out to fix it, they where good
 
ive had them out once and the washer had died so they replaced it the same day.
 
There's an unfurnished flat that needs furnishing sharpish... would one of you kind ladies be good enough to share the contact details of the washing machine rental gaff? :)
 
the one i used to get mine from is called 'web rentals' they work from a garage at the back of the Forts Arms in Clayton
 
a few yrs ago my washer stopped spinning which is often caused by the brushes inside....u can buy them on Oak St and there only a few quid
 
I used to rent, many moons ago, from Vogue Electrics in Gt Harwood. signed up with them at a time when I had absolutely no cash and needed a washer urgently. no problems with their service, but they were never new machines, in fact quite old.

Nowadays I wouldn't consider renting. You can buy a second hand washer for under a hundred quid, often with a six month guarantee. Six months rental at 4 quid a week is over that, and you could get many more months after that for free. The one I have now has been working fine for over 2 years.

The only brand new one I bought about 15 years ago broke down several times during the warranty, and then again just afterwards. :(

The cheapest washer in Argos is £156.49 with a 12 months warrenty. If you pay £4 a week that is £208 each and every year.

You can pay £69.99 for 3 years breakdown cover, that brings the total to £156.49 + £69.99 = £226.15

£4 per week for 3 years = £624

So over 3 years you would save £397.85 which is £2.55 per week.

When you say it has stopped spinning what do you mean Shaz?

Has it stop going round altogether or does it work except when it comes to a spin cycle. Had it emptied or did it still have water in it.
 
i put it on a cycle and it washes, but just doesnt spin, i'm having to wring the clothes out by hand before i put them in the dryer or on the line
 
i know what your saying Emma, its having all that cash up front to fork out for a washer, was in the same boat myself, if i hadnt have got this washer given i would still be renting
