Washing machine and dishwasher

[Keitai]

I'm guessing i need to replace my ten year old washer dryer which trips out. Looked at a few in Currys and LG 9kg looks good. Pay £30 for them to plumb in or fo it myself?

On another note sick of washing up. Thinking of getting a dishwasher. Maybe slim one but I've got these pipes sticking out of floor. Think ten years ago tried to get a plumber to move them think they need digging out he never did it and I forgot about it but want to try again. Shall I dig around pipes?

I wouldn't touch Curry's with a barge pole. As well as receiving terrible customer service myself when i had the misfortune of ordering from them take a look at their Facebook page, practically every post has dozens of replies from disgruntled customer.

So where you suggest for washing machine?

Also what to do with pipes/stopcock with dishwasher? Moving them Thinking thinner dishwasher so can reach stopcock too

AO, JL or consider direct from manufacturer, sometimes they have good offers. Bought our LG washing machine and just recently a Vax vacuum cleaner direct, lowest prices around at the time.

Most dishwashers have a cutout at the bottom rear which might go over most of the pipes, or it might be exactly where the drain hose exits the machine - go back to Currys (or your choice of shop) and have a look round the back. Stop tap should ideally remain a bit more accessible - probably needs spinning 180° into the adjacent cupboard if you're brave.

Worth watching a few of this guy's videos about washing machines and other appliances before choosing a model. Apparently sealed drums with built in obsolescence is now the thing.
