New brand of washers on comet uk

Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Help Support :

Tom is one 100% correct on the Isis brand. Electra is back courtesy of Vestel too, as will be he Servis brand name. They picked up a few brands from the Antonio merloni dissection, including Newpol. This is the first time Vestel have handled their own brand names.
 
Won't be long, they are probably based on the Doris (yes this is what Vestel call them) cabinet & fascia. If you see the Russell hobbs (Lares), Next Catalogue models (Marylin & Lares)and Swan models (Solaris), Bush (Olympus) you will see the different varieties they churn out.
 
Yep vestel again wk1200 wk1400 wv1200 and wk1400. Also the matsui mgw145. Sovereign shl10007 shl12007. There are at least 90 models from vestel in the uk at my last count, all under various guises.

What model codes are they? Yes the dishwashers they import are Chinese, but have not seen this washer...
 
They, IE Haier, Midea, & wuxi little swan all have Indesit to thank, for a terrible design of product made worse. Indesit licensed these dishwashers to wuxi, midea & haier, plus the old Ariston washing machine design solely to Haier.

Haier & Midea have exactly the same base product. Obviously as time has passed they have evolved and morphed. But fundamentally still poor. I think Wuxi has been totally absorbed into Indesit, the factory has since been responsible for the slimline hotties and indies we have here.

Is 100% Midea, so the WK washers (and Servis) are also Midea =/ (gets on knees to Tom and begs for forgivenss lol) What I am still perplexed about is the servis in Ireland. I wonder if Vestel cannot have the license of the Servis brand in Ireland? or is Vestel having a fling with Midea?

While we're on the subject......

Hi guys

Been reading this with interest as i'd also spotted some unfamilar names appearing on Comet's website. Shame that the White Knight washers look to be made by a poor company, as i suspect some loyal White Knight dryer customers may try these. If they don't maintain the fairly decent offering of White Knights dryers people may stop buying the dryers too. Hopefully as they look so basic people will avoid them - don't want our only British made laundry appliances (the dryers) to run into trouble!

However, while we're on the subject of those 'horrible dishwashers in currys', do we mean ones like the one in the link below? My Gran has owned one like this (badged Matsui) for around 3 years & it seems to work well. It's actually lived for double the amount of time of her previous Bosch Classixx. I was horrified when i saw what she'd bought but it's proven me wrong. So would this be a Midea? I thought it was Hoover underneath because Hoover's slimline offering of the time (plus Kenwoods') had identical cabinets, bases & LED layouts. Maybe Hoover did a deal with Midea?

Any info greatly received!

Thanks
Liam

Dishwashers

Hi Liam

Afaik Candy have been buying Chinese dw's for the entry level machines. From what I have been told with failure on these it can be about what detergent is used, ie seperate rinse aid or the combi action tabs.

Looks like the one's sold in Germany under the brand name "exquisit". Very cheaply made...
 
Personally

I prefer seperates, and generally Finish.
I can't see how the rinse aid action can last through the rinse, after the main wash into the hot rinse. Perhaps there is an answer, but I don't know on this one.

With the salt action in the tabs, it does soften the water that is circulated, but totally misses the salt pot. I have seen in some cases the salt unit crystals clump, because they have not been cleansed with the brine. Ultimatly the machine cannot fill and the salt unit has to be replaced.

Apparently some of the chinese machines foam up with the 3in1's, could be user error perhaps by having rinse aid in their too?
 
those ex, matsui and currys essential dishwashers arent briliant, my sisters currys essentilas dishwasher blew up not too long ago, smoke,strange noises a burning odour the works. i wouldnt touch one tbh, im not normally a brand snob but the haier dishwashers which use the same interior and materials seem better made imo
