Hello everyone

I have just bought a house and will be moving into it soon. THe vendors are leaving me behind a black washing machine which will match the kitchen better. I really dont want to get rid of the machine but it will not match my kitchen.

I dont want to go selling my A3110 to the next tennants neither do I want to go selling it to someone that wont care for the machine. My machine is in great condition and has never missed a beat in the 3 years I have had it.

If you want to make me an offer then your welcome to have it. Only asking for something for it because I have things to buy for my new house and the cost of moving etc. It will also give me peace of mind knowing it has gone to a good home & to someone who wants the machine.

I am in Leeds and close to motorway links.

Kind Regards
Richard.

I suggest you change the kitchen to match the A3110 and sell the black thing well it still works lol.

All the best with the move

Decisiona

For me there would be no quandry about this, i would tahe the Hoover and kick out the black machine, if i were near you i would slap some sense into you ;-)

When my Aqualtis dies (please god) i am going to have one of mt Hoover machines in the house i am fed up with dissapointing modern machines.
 
Electron 1100

Richard

Please don't sell that lovely Electron, because if your anything like me you will live to regret it in a few months time. Surely you can find some room in your new house, has your new home got a out house or a shed to put it in (possibly with power & water supplies) & then maybe you could put the new black one in there.

hotpoint 95622

I’m with Gary on this one, out with the modern and in with the classic vintage.

Gary, sorry to here the Aqualtis is not living up to her predecessors.
 
Hi Richard,

Shame about the selling the Electronic as Im sure it will last longer than your black thing, (whatever that may be?).

If you do decide to sell it I would recommend putting it on ebay, to get the best exposure.

I think you could hope to get at least £50 for it.

Good luck whatever you decide.
 
I have got a shed actually yes, the seller wants something for the black washer so may just say I dont want the modern one and take the A3110, not going to know whats happening until the end of the weekend.

Completition date is 11th.
 
Unfortunatly I dont know what make it is however here is a picture but cant make out the name of it im afraid.

I may tell them I dont want it.

Keep the Old'un!

That black one's a Hoover Optima, the more basic brother to the Vision HD.

Im curious to see one in action but i'd keep another machine as a back-up if i had one, seems to be a few knackered ones on eBay whenever i look - 40c programs running at 60c, rinse program just spinning, random programmer errors like that along with bearings mostly.

I certainly wouldn't give them any more than £50 for it, your old Hoover machine is leagues ahead & has proven its worth so i'd keep it.

Congrats on the house purchase too, it's a good feeling :-)

Thanks guys I am going upto the house tonight to discuss giving them something towards curtains.

I really am in 2nd minds as to get this black plastic thing from them after reading your comments and also seein on ebay that they are failing with the electronics. My last hoover I had before my A3110 was useless at washing and failed so many times. I think my A3110 has proved itself and it wouldnt look too out of place in my kitchen. I think my parents are getting at the fact that it is a new kitchen with expensive wooden floors etc.
 
Floors

Hello richard if you are worried about moving the black machine and it marking the floor then put some washing up liquid on the floor infront of the feet and once the feet touch it they will slide easily,
No such problems with the A3110 as it is on wheels ;-)
 
Hi Richard,

Think of it like this, if you stick with the black Hoover, I would put money on within two years you asking our advice as to what machine to buy next after the electronics fail or the pressure system gets blocked or the bearings / tub fail all these faults make this black Hoover beyond repair.
Not so with the Electronic!, can be fixed easily!.
 
A3110

Richard

Well i'm always swapping & changing my Washer in my house, it's getting to the stage now that i'm almost an expert at it. Luckily all the machines that i have had have had wheels on them. I think you will get bored of that new Hoover because they all have the same old boring spin sequence programmed into them.
 
Sticking with my A3110!

They are taking the black machine that way I haven't parted with any money.

They are giving me a white modern zanussi though free of charge which I will put in my shed.
 
Question for you guys... would a hotpoint drain pump fit my A3110? ITs an old hotpoint with no filter in it so evertything passes through the pump.
 
This is the Zanussi machine that they are leaving me... found it cos the solicitor emailed me the address of the house that the vendors are buying turns out the machine they are giving me is from the house they are buying.

They are taking the black one with them and this will go in the shed...

What do you think to it?

Zanussi

Hi Richard,

Regarding that Zanni you're inheriting above, you'd be better off with either the ZWF14791, or an older version like the FJS1466W or WJD1667W.

These newer models don't last long, the #01 prob, drum paddles falling out.

I actually have a Zanussi JetSystem 1600 Washer Dryer WJD1667W, currently waiting for a new dryer fan (hopefully getting fixed in the next 02-03 weeks) seeing as my Servis Sapphire Washer Dryer's up the spout at the moment.

OK so my A3110 is in place in my kitchen...

The vendors rang me re the Zanussi, told me it was leaking water all over the place? Not sure if that was because they wanted to keep it for themselves so they thought they would tell me it was leaking everywhere.

But im glad I didnt sl@g my A3110 off and have kept it as my faithful machine! Its not let me down yet so I am sure it will be fine!

Heres a picture of my new kitchen you can see the A3110 in place in the left corner!

Sorry about the pink mood lighting! Will be upgrading these soon to LED so can have any colour I wish!

Looking for a timer now for my a3110 it keeps getting stuck in the rinse cycles and spin came home other day and it had been spinning all night long! The casing was warm!

Can't find one on eBay :(
