Flaming debate

it is my humble opinion that we should let this thread die out as in my eyes its starting to turn clearly into a flaming debate right now and i tend to agree with hotpoint fan that something needs to be done even if i am canadian and do not know this brand.

some of you people on here are so silly and scared of a little debate there's nothing wrong expressing your feelings and stating your opinion, the world would be such a boring place if everyone agreed with the same thing, so don't let this thread die down, because one feels it getting a little sticky say what you feel but be assertive because im sure some of you at one point wanted to purchase a hoover/candy washing machine because before i got my aqualtis i was actually going to buy a hoover DST10166P until i saw how it was welded it just looked cheap in quality opposed to the drum i didn't like the drum paddles but i said to my self don't judge a book by the cover it may not be what you think but was still considering buying it, until i read articles well as forums thread complaining about hoover/candy washing machines as a whole end of the day there's no point of wearing your heart on your sleeve. for example, this why i respect nrones , because no matter what he's sticks to his beliefs, well as some others.

kind regards to everyone.

Multiple reasons

why this debate shouldn't start:

1 - It has already been discussed, not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6, not 7, but 8 times!! Don't you think it's a little too much? And in all 8 discussions it was very "hot", and everyone stated their oppineons, so every new thread is just repeating something already said...

2 - I don't think a valid Debate can start, when one side there's a bunch of experience to the machines we are talking about (owning, in every day contact with Candy, selling them) and 2nd side is from post to post prooving extremely poor knowledge about Candy.. by the way - I am still shocked, and I still can't belive how could have some things been written up there :O for me, I feel like someone wrote Miele has plastic outer tubs literally.. So, I don't know how such debate exist

3 - Very poor international understanding - Deffinatley, Candy in UK is a budget brand - we've got it, however if you go as close to France, not to mention Spain, Italy, Poland, Chezch republic, Russia and the rest of eastern europe (inclooding where I live), it's not like that. Candy is here counted as a very high brand, a competitor with Bosch - to be precise when Candy's sale raise, Bosch's goes down, and so on. I live in such society, where Candy is respected brand as Bosch is in UK, now Imagine how would it be to you, if someone wrote all this to Bosch? That's how I feel every single time I read this.. But I can't help it since majority of users here are from UK and Germany..

P.S
It would have been nice if you bought Hoover, cause don't you see? Everyone here who owns a new(ish) C/H talks good about it, and bad comments come from "judging book by it's cover".. with exception to Solsburian, who really had sad experience

budget brand in canada and us

i would say that each continent have there own budget brand like if i look in canada, and us the budget brand would be inglis washer dryer. Set and its also my humble tough, that we should let this thread die and also. For those who do not know this know that starting familys, or someone starting out in life can not afford to buy one of these fancy brand of appliance. They have to go by the budget they have they are lucky if the brand they like, is on sale and within there price range but its not the case for everyone.

I think its good of you to post this & alert others. It is terrible, but the law isn't tough enough on things like this. So Candy can just sweep it under the carpet as it was only a faulty batch of drums according to them. A couple of businesses I deal with, seem to have this attitude but perhaps their issues are not quite as serious as exloding drums! I hope the consumers got compensation for the damage done to their property and, hope that no one ever gets hurt. I remember when Indesit put an advert in the national press when the doors on their machines could be opened in full cycle, it seriously hurt a 6 year old child and another child but it was documented on ITV with Judy Finnigan in 1998 but I've never heard of Candy's being on Watchdog or the like so maybe not enough Candy's are sold in UK or perhaps the people just went to the local newspaper instead.

Alert others?

Like who?

Just wondering who has a Vision here that you wish to inform?

Nah, u aint got anything else interesting to get kicks out of except exploding machines or whinging about faults. Smells of troll here.

Public have seen it in the papers and on tv now and im sure that all members here now know of the issues and did know in the first thread created.

Come back and contribute when you all can contribute to more worthy threads. its pathetic.

Aquaries1984

No its a forum so if you don't like it why are YOU reading it?? The only thing pathetic is yourself. You need to go away and learn some manners!

 

[aquarius1984]

Nah quite the contrary,

but anyway.

enjoy yourself.

 

[optima]

Oh what has happened to this Deluxe page.

All it seems to be now is non stop falling out. It used to be fantastic but now it's non stop Bitching. Why can't everyone just start to get along a bit better.

Nrones-i agree with you in the sense that you love Candy as i love Ariston, Ariston has taken quite a few batterings on this forum for lack of quality however with my experience with any Ariston washing machines Ive come into contact with have been perfect workhorses that get on with the job and dosnt fuss. i also understand that Candy markets their machines differently depending on the country so we cant tar and feather all candy machines from every country for being bad quality as most of the time they are good machines, however the situation in the UK needs to be addressed by Candy. Ive had alot of experience with candy and i used to own one and it wasn't a very good machine if im being honest, it was a day old and had to be repaired which is unacceptable. and in a way Nrones is Lucky the Candy as he knows it still exists and my Ariston is Almost completely gone and unless i move to Australia any time soon IL never in person see a new solely Ariston Branded machine which is quite upsetting.

regarding Bosch being a high end brand that people wouldn't diss is ridiculous, Ive had bad experiences with Bosch washers also so their not perfect either, much like candy and ariston aren't perfect it all comes down to personal preference if you find a brand you like you will defend it no matter what, and also if i had a bad experience with say a Miele washing machine i would not hesitate whatsoever about coming on here and complaining about it because Miele is so glorified on this forum and honestly sometimes it does my head in. i know miele are good but they to can fail just like any machine. this is my last post regarding this thread bottom line is Candy/Hoover machines are exploding it needs to be addressed soon.

 

[pierreandreply4]

this is my last post as well in this thread but all i wanted to say is what ever the contry or brand of washer is there are time where brands have some minor problems from time to time that need to be resolve and if you check your warrenty papers for your washers some manufacturers eather offer limited lifetime warrenty on there drums or wash basket (washbasket *toploading washers) or 10 years on drums or wash basket so if problems ocurr with the wash basket or drum these should still be under warrenty. so maybe it would be a good thing to read your warrenty papers to see if its true
