    I like the look of my Sunbeam better, but I can't seem t What is the challenge with the Sunbeam egg cooker?   I've one from the 1960's (akin to the US version below only for 230V) that is an absolute dream to use.   Does yours have the water measuring 'cup' on the inside of the lid...

    Asian top loader with agitator

    Beko 6.5kg Well Steve, I can tell you that we're very happy with the 6.5kg Beko machine we bought nearly 12 months ago. It does, as Matty mentioned some time ago, have a fussy spin at times, but it cleans very well and is quick. Cottons 40c takes 1:24. You can vary the temperature from cold to...
