With reference to Bosch. When I was looking for as integrated washing machine-I have posted a note about trying to decide about Neff- I was told by a salesperson in a major store to be VERY careful about Bosch.I was told that there are different qualities with the Bosch label as some have been made in Spain or Italy-can't remember which- and these are much inferior to those made in the past. I was told that you should look for GB after the name to ensure that the machine is not made in these countries.

Thanks for the reply. I have been told by an employee at a major company that you should be VERY careful with Bosch washing machines as they have been making some in Spain or Italy-can't remember which -because these machines are not of the same quality as the normal Bosch machine and have been manufactured to compete in the mid price range.The person said only to buy Bosch machine which have a GB after the name and these machines are the more expensive ones. I think I'll put this as a response to questions about Bosch to alert others as I have been going with names I thought were high quality.

Hi, New to forum. Is no one else considering the Neff brand? I was told that the Neff was second to Miele and better than Bosch. I have had to replace my 7 year old Ariston integrated washing machine this week. It had never given any problems till now. Choice came down to AEG L14510VI or Neff W5340 which both have 1400 spin cycle. Miele is too expensive. Cheapest price I could get on internet for Aeg was £578 with 2 year guarantee and delivery. Found Neff W5340 at local dealer at £750 with 2 year guarantee and delivery. I had been put off Neff because all the internet sites gave the depth of the machine as 575mm which would make it too deep for my cubpoard and Neff's own website's details are not very clear. In fact, 575mm includes the cupboard door that you put on to the machine- I found this out when I went shopping locally for the AEG. Having spoken to a few local shops I have decided to go with Neff as I think that it should pay off in the long run -hope so anyway! No one else out there considering Neff?
