defo have seperate mate, theirs more to go wrong on washer/dryers

best for money which i install bosch wae24363 we sell them for 320

tumble dryers, are you having a vented or condensor dryer? creda tvr2 or tcr2 are good value for money and reliable

if you get them they'll be within your budget, hope that's good enough for you mate

The only problem with combined washer dryers is yes there is more to go wrong in one package which wil genrally leave you without either till it's fixed.
I have a BOSCH washer dryer, just been repaired a few weeks back, but under warranty, plus got extended till 2012.
I look at what people have that repair the things for a living, thinking along the lines of they don't want to be repairing thier own, after doing others al week, and they get to see first hand what is good and what is not.
I know two repair people, they both have BOSCH, seperates, but I don't have the room for seperates.

if u wanted stainless and good quality it'd have to be siemens, bosch and siemens are the same, bosch do silver siemens do stainless,

i'm not sure on prices for them to be honest, siemens washers are about 500, thats for a white one, they charge more for stainless,

bosch silver is the same as the 24363 but it hasnt got a finish in timer like the 24363,

if you're looking for decent machines,

bosch, siemens, neff, are my best recomendations,
