Hello beautiful people. How are you all? Survived the week okay?
I have to tell you about our washing machine saga. Our old washing machine was on the way out so Tiger bought a new one. I'm not overly happy with it, he bought it without me and it has an agitator which I don't like.
Anyhow, we got it and when we first used it we noticed that it was quite noisy. We figured it was just a noisy machine and thought nothing of it. A few days later the noise got louder. It was only on the spin cycle so we thought the machine was unbalanced. We made sure it was balanced and tried again, however the noise got worse. It sounded like there was a coin stuck in the machine. We pulled the agitator off and looked underneath but couldn't see anything.
I ran a clean cycle, that didn't help. The noise kept on getting worse until day eight when it showed an error message saying there was a motor failure. Our washing machine that was only eight days old was stuffed. The warranty people came out, confirmed it was broken and ordered a new one. It took a week for the new machine to arrive and another five days until they could deliver it and remove the broken machine.
The only saving grace was that we still had our original machine (not the new one, the one we had before we bought the new one) and it still worked okay until the day before the new machine arrived when it decided to die completely. So all in all it worked out and we now have a new machine. I'm just waiting to see if this one is going to die too. So far it's okay. It's been nine days with no problems so hopefully we're in the clear.
That's my first world whinge.
