Hello We have just finished decorating and need a new storage heater. I was just about to buy a new Dimplex XLS12N Automatic and I was thrown off by some information on the website I was buying from. It said "This meets the requirements of Building Regulation Part L1, which requires all...

Thought I better update this thread! I bought the LG one in the end and unfortunately my worst nightmares were coming to life :-( It does do the much talked about "LG dance" (we call it) When it goes into a full spin. 8 out of 10 spins it shakes quite badly, sometimes walks across the...

Going to buy the LG one tomorrow! Just one thing I cant find anything on the net about is whats actually covered in the Manufacturer's 2 year guarantee? How much protection does it actually give you? Would it mean in the 1st 2 years I shouldnt have to put my hands in my pockets for repairs...

Extended as in what Currys offer? I would take out the monthly payment thing they do but couldnt afford the £150/£250 out right lump sum. I was thinking about just putting away £5/£10 every month just in case (I do that with most big buys) So if it breaks I have something to asdd to the repair...

:-) they do make it hard to decide! It has everything I want, direct drive, large capacity and fast spin! http://www.bootskitchenappliances.com/product/F1403YD5-LG-Washer-Dryer-Silver-21751.aspx?cm_mmc=Froogle-_-FS%20washer%20dryers-_-LG-_-F1403YD5_SI Im in no rush so I shall keep looking...

What about Samsung and LG they dont seems to get mentioned much but there is a good spec LG model for my price range. Although I type LG Washer Dryers in Google and it returned lots of videos of LG dancing across the kitchen. Not sure ifs that "Old" LG's or not. If buying Bosch is there...

Thanks Leccy someting handy to know!

Thanks! I think im going to try and increase my budget a bit. Looking around the internet at Hotpoints, Hoovers and Indesits etc there is nothing but people saying how much they break and how many they have had. I know its luck, I have had a Beko 1200spin basic cheap washing machine from...

Thanks for the link! So for instance if it says Wash 7kg Dry 5kg I could wash 7 but have to take 2kg out before drying it? And I take it the ones that have 5kg wash and 5kg dry I wouldnt have to touch between cycles? Thanks

Hello I need a bit of help deciding what washer dryer to get. I dont have choice regarding having a seperate dryer due to space, so it has to be a combo. Basically I have £500 tops to spend (And need all or most of the functions listed below) Also I know washer dryers are prone to go...

Hello We recently put up some plaster coving using Wickes coving adhesive. It went fine, looked great, all the corners smooth. About 1 week later hairline cracks appeared at the joins, corners and between the ceiling and wall. So I went about filling them but as I touched one of the...

Thank you! Also I have lined the walls with 1000 grade paper, can I paint straight over it or do I have to undercoat it first? Can I still use Vinyl paint for the walls even though I have lined? Thanks

Hi I need to paint the bathroom ceiling and the lightweight coving I put up. What type of paint do I need to use on the bathroom ceiling that can also go on the coving. Its not the polyester coving but the paper/card coated coving. Thanks!!

I just finished it, I had an old exstension lead and cut the plugs off and put on a 2 gang socket in the wall. Drilled through to the kitchen and plugged it in. The socket I plugged it into is behind the cupboards so you cant see anything! Thanks

Hi I built a partition wall and at the time didnt think that I would need plugs on one side. Now I do need plugs, theres is not any mains to tap into nearby so I was wondering if I could use a bit of wire and put a plug on the end and a 2gang switched socket on the other end. Then set the...

thanks for that, yes I wish I hadnt started! Is lining paper going to be ok in a room that gets humid? Thanks!

Hi I removed the wallpaper in my bathroom and it took off the original paint applied over the plaster. The paint came off very easy like it wasn't even attached to the wall in the first place. Now all the paper is off, the rest of the paint is starting to flake off. If it is not flaking...

No thats right I woulnt change any MCB's only exact replacments. The total MCB's equal to 100amps so no wonder its tripping off. It amazing that this board has lasted this long. Thanks

Hi It says, "Total Load not to exceed 60Amps, 240v AC 50Hz" Why not to use him? Does it sound too cheap or expsensive? Thanks

I got a quote to have my box replaced. He said £325 but he has not seen it yet! I was looking at a new shower, on the box it says: 8.5kw (Nominal) 240v AC - 7.8kw (Nominal) 230v AC What does that mean? I have a 6mm cable so Im looking for under 8kw can you get these? Although on the...
