It's interesting watching you guys just repairing stuff and explaining what you're doing. Parts just get replaced nowadays if you're lucky and most of the time when appliances go wrong they just get chucked and replaced
I once had a Hotpoint 8kg washer delivered to me, thought the polystyrene seemed a bit cracked, removed the transit bolts and 3 were snapped clean and the other was bent like hell. Didn't take that as a warning, plummed it in, and it gave me a inground swimming pool in my kitchen, lots of mopping and tilting it revealed it must've taken a drop, and the locked drum and shocks due to the bolts couldn't survive the impact, and cracked the outer tub.
Great to see Jeff again in his proper tinkering and pottering workshop. The delivery guys probably took the blue button instructions literally, just pushed it off the van and were gone. I guess if the parts are available and cheap it is worth a punt at refurbishing. In the end it is still going to be a new, functional but ghastly machine. LG washers for me. 👍 for your video.
Great job! When i ordered a washing machine in 2020 as mine broke, because of Covid many didn't deliver into the appartment. I needed someone who wanted to bring it into the flat and then connect it to the tap also. So i went with a different shop in the mall that was willing to do it. Only when it arrived, there was a crack in the tabletop. I could get it at reduced cost and i really needed a washing machine, but instead i choose to wait another week until they could deliver a non broken one. See, the point is, i could never know how that crack came into the tabletop and maybe it has also fallen of a rack or whathever and with the delicate electronics these days (i don't see washing machines with mechanical clocks anymore, at least not in the consumer department) so i didn't want to take the bet, as your video demonstrates all the needs for repairs etc., but even then with the electronics you sometimes don't get a direct feedback and maybe it will behave erratically further down the road when the garantee just expired those kind of things.
Well my 2023 beko washer has a screw for its door lock be it that there’s only one screw holding it in but it’s better than this indesit that has no screws holding in its door lock
I call it indeshit now as the machines are awful. Really do not like these new machines from this company. Or I should say brand. The older machines from this brand were brilliant. I guess it’s true what they say, good things don’t last forever. I remember my auntie had an older Indesit washing machine in the 2000s and I loved listening to it working. Had a lovely sounding motor and pump

Great video buddy 👌👌👌
Did we ever do anything with this machine?
I saw it when I was in Cornwall last. It's still in Jeff's workshop awaiting a lid to turn up!

There's nothing to report. It's still in Jeff's workshop. I'm seeing him in September so I'll ask him then what his plans are

Get a new lock
Good thinking!
@@TheVintageApplianceEmporium it's a great cheap machine save it maybe you could have it as a spare washer
@@TheVintageApplianceEmporium or if you don't need it sell it once you get it working
@@danandlaundry it's going to be used for parts now
