Don't worry elux are great with spares! There obligated to make spares 5years after somethings discontinued!!
And you can still get parts for early zanny washers so i shouldn't think it'd be to big a problem for you!!

Sorry for duplicate posts, Internet or the site were playing up!
Big shame about Tricity Bendix being dropped. They were an excellent budget brand, though i seemed to find them in smaller electrical retailers rather than alongside Zanussi models in Currys, which mightve been why theyre rare by comparison.
Also, because theyve never had an Electrolux badge on them like AEG & Zanussi, people who have owned a Tricity Bendix may stray to a totally different make like Indesit (God for bid) when the TB packs up, as theyre unaware that a Zanussi or AEG is basically the same type of machine, thus costing Electrolux group a few sales. Bad idea me thinks.

I will never buy another Zanussi/AEG!!!
I have an AEG 16810 washer dryer.... 5 years old and the mother board is going! (Stops and blacks out mid cycle) In years gone by, AEG and Zanussi were one of the best! Now I think the joining of Zanussi, AEG, Tricity Bendix and Electrolux have destroyed the good names they all had!
My friend has a Zanussi 1400 spin washer 4 years old and usage was for a single person, his mother board has gone this week. He's going for a Bosch in the hope it is longer lasting!
My Zanussi sensor and condensing dryer is 4 years and I have had nothing but intermittent sqeaks and rumbles since I bought it and the "service force have done nothing but fob me off with pathetic excuses until the dryer was out of warranty....
So from now on, it's ging to be either Bosch or Miele for me!!

..that is disapointing. My Mum has a 2006 model Bendix and touch wood, so far have had no problems. I've always thought of the Zanussi/AEG/Lux/Bendix brand as being one of the better brands on the market today

Zanussi XC WJS1665W
Hi all
Here's my XC WJS1665W 1600 spin washer/dryer, purchased new May 2001. You can also see my AEG slimline dishwasher of the same age (which worked perfectly until 3 weeks ago).
Unfortunately the WJS1665W died in 2005, the control panel was always flaky from just out of warranty, and the Start button sometimes took several presses to work. Other than that it was a brilliant machine, with JetSystem, and the Zanussi spin-rinses. Rinsing was excellent ('total exchange'), even though it used very little water.
Over time, the start button became more and more temperamental, and the machine would sometimes just stop mid-cycle for no reason (no error code).
The bearings started to wear, so it was replaced with a Bosch that lasted only just over 2 years but that's another story.
AEG Electrolux L14850 washer/dryer currently. Very quiet, but very odd programming - eg short bursts of spinning on the synthetics cycle between rinses, but the pump cuts out almost as soon as it's started spinning so no water is extracted. Also on some programs (cottons included), hardly any intermediate spins between rinses. Rinsing is therefore appalling, particularly on the synthetics cycles. Not one of my best buys although I think the newer (current) range of AEGs is better.
It has the JetSystem similar to the Zanussi, but no spin-rinses.
I remember my aunt having a Z949T (semi-integrated Z939T) from about 1981, which was still working perfectly with its original induction motor when she had a new kitchen fitted in 2008, which included a "free" Zanussi washing machine. I wish now I'd rescued it from the skip as I'm sure someone on here would have liked it!
