Beko WTB720E1W noise
Hello, im hoping someone can help me. I have recently purchased a new beko washing machine, after a week of use i thought it was faulty and after an engineer visit it was replaced by currys. My new (replacement) washer is now making an awful noise on every cycle. I have attached a video for you to see. Im sure this cannot be the noise it is meant to make? Can anyone please help me
thanks

Beko WTB720E1W noisy motor/brush sound from new
- The problem
- A new Beko WTB720E1W washing machine was reported as making an awful noise on every cycle. The original machine had already been replaced, and the replacement was described as making the same noise after about seven uses. The noise was thought by the owner to be from the top/front near the detergent drawer area.
- Likely cause
- The accepted reply identified the noise as the motor carbon brushes bedding in. Another reply said it did not sound faulty as such, although recordings can exaggerate noise levels.
- What fixed it
- Recommended action was to run several full spin cycles and also a 40 degree wash cycle to allow the carbon brushes to bed in and hopefully quieten down. No further repair was documented in the thread.
- Checks to try
- Noise present on every cycle from new/replacement machine
- Machine had been used about 7 times
- Video recording of the noise was reviewed by forum members
- Parts or tools mentioned
- Motor carbon brushes

That sounds pretty noisy. It’s the carbon brushes in the motor. Try putting it on full spin cycle several times and maybe a 40 degree wash cycle to see if they bed in and quieten down, which hopefully might happen.

Thanks for you help andy, my previous one which was returned was exactly the same. How long do you think i should give it to bed in before calling beko again to come out? Ive probably used it about 7 times from new. From listening it sounds like the noise is coming from the top of the machine around the liquid drawer area at the front. Thank you for your help

It's hard to judge on recordings because usually the auto level controls on recording devices make noises sound louder than they actually are. It doesn't sound too bad to be honest, it might take some weeks to quieten down. It doesn't sound "faulty" as such.
