Thats disgraceful - it's not acceptable to have a machine that makes any sort of abnormal noise. I bet you wold think twice about buying one of them again!

They have received my letter (I sent it by signed post). Hopefully they will get back soon. The machine has just had another nasty out of balance spin and has knocked out and broke one of the covers for where the transit bolts go. @hoover1100: What issues did you have with the dryer?

I suspect they were waiting for the machine's Labour warranty to expire so they can start charging £115 per callout before they would actually fix the issues. Looking at the drum, the outer rim looks skewed, so I wonder if the drum is out of profile, which could explain the drum noises etc.

An update, the engineer came and it was not on the notes to replace the machine if a fault was found! He replaced the heater as the seal had gone and the drum had rubbed against the side of the element. The drum still makes that nose and the suspension is still abnormally noisy. I've written a...

I'm not sure, but if they will only offer Hoover I'll ask for another brand and pay the difference.

My Machine is acting funny again, making what can be best described as rattling/flicking/spluttering sounds during the spin and the noisy drum is back! After complaining to Hoover-Candy and Currys, when the engineer comes on Thursday and finds any faults the machine is to be replaced...

I love that Hotpoint one, a bit of a blatant rip off though :-p I cam remember the short length "On and on and Ariston" ads in the 90's and the full length one is on Youtube as well:

Pic from my Hoover manual... It can take up to a 6KG load.

@nrones I guess Candy do innovate on some things, I quite like the look of the Trio (It would be ideal for our kitchen) but I wouldn’t buy anything made by Candy again :-(

Apparently the Chinese Zanussi‘s have a split tub, so I guess that makes them better then the native models in one respect. I believe that the new Bosch Logixx Washer Dryer is also made by Little Swan as well.

Found a Slimline example: http://www.hotpoint-ariston.it/ha/2/productsheet.do?productId=69008IT

I wash we had slim line Aqualtis models here - especially Washer Dryers!

It's a Hoover WDYNS 654D Slimline (44cm Deep) Washer Dryer.

I quite like the look of the Aqualits, they do seem to be much better built the rest of their range. I've got my eye on a Bosch WVD24520GB washer dryer - I'll see how long my patience lasts with the Hoover!

Aqualits models are not listed as being effected (see link below). But I know it's not much comfort - I'm still a bit nervous about being around my Hoover when it spins, especially with all of the rattling it makes...

The wash rhythms looked almost painful to watch, as logixx pointed out I bet they won't do the machine any good!

As promised I've made a video of the Hoover drying. It has 8 Drying Programmes, Sensor: Extra Dry, Cupboard Dry, Iron Dry, Cool Tumble, Timed: 120 mins, 90 mins, 60 mins and 30 mins. On the sensor programmes, the time display show the maximum time allowed for each option, it takes about 10...

We have checked tonight and the drum seems quiet now - the engineer did remove and re attach the heather so perhaps it was catching against the drum hence the noise. @samsungfl: I've read about your experiance with your Vision and I was disgusted - if mine gets as bad as yours I'll be...

called Hoover this morning and they said they would send some one else out, only to be told that there was only the same guy in our area. He came out straight away (I missed him since I was at work but my partner was off). Unfortunately, he came mid way through a wash cycle when the noise...

Just for comparison, I've recorded what the drum sounds like after the drying cycle:
