Bosch washing machine or Zanussi/ Electrolux or Samsung?
I'm about to buy a new washing machine . initially I was thinking to buy a samsung washer dryer or just a samsung washing machine around £400 to £600 range but after some research I realized there has been lots of problem with their Drum Spider arm corrosion right after their warranty expires . Then I decided to go for german models which they are also expensive such as Bosch but i'm not sure how reliable and good they are nowadays compare to korean one such as samsung . I know Bosch is one of the top brands but are they still produce the good quality washing machine ? Also is there any other good brands out there within my budget range ?
Anyone have an advice or recommendation?
Thanks

Buying advice sought for a new washing machine; Bosch recommended
- The problem
- The poster wanted advice on choosing a new washing machine within a stated budget of £400 to £600. They were considering Samsung washer dryers or washing machines, but were concerned by reports of drum spider arm corrosion after warranty. They asked whether Bosch machines are still reliable and whether any other brands were worth considering.
- Likely cause
- No appliance fault was being diagnosed. The discussion was about brand choice and perceived reliability concerns, with Bosch presented as having a good reliability and value reputation despite lower quality than older models.
- What fixed it
- The accepted advice was to choose Bosch. One reply said Bosch no longer matches its historic build quality from earlier decades, but still has a very good reputation for reliability and value for money. No specific model was recommended.

Hi. Bosch don't produce anywhere near as high quality appliances that they used to in the 70s, 80s and possibly 90s. Some of their base models now are very cheap. However, they have a very good reputation with Which? for reliability and value for money.
