Hoover has a 1 year labour, 5 year parts guarantee. Ebac has a 7 year parts AND labour guarantee. Curry's, who sponsors the Gadget Show, sells the Hoover but not the Ebac 🤔
We don't want Ebac sitting in a corner where it will never be shown for it's true credentials that's why you'll only find service engineers of the highest reputation selling these back to basics tough durable machines
@@Ikey04-ge9gy It used to be a reasonably good brand in the 1970s. A friend of mine wanted another vacuum cleaner and thought he would stay loyal to the brand and buy another Hoover (about 15 - 20 years ago). He bought a Hoover upright only to find that the brush drive belt broke so he took it back to the shop and it was fixed, only for the second belt to snap after few uses. He then decided to buy a Miele upright and no problems since. It's a shame how famous brands go downhill once they have new owners; I remember Hoover made industrial electrical equipment in the 60s, e.g. the vertical drill in the Metalwork Department at my secondary school had a Hoover induction main motor, i remember the famous red Hoover logo on it's nameplate. That said I get the impression that perhaps the brand quality is going up again.
Hoover has sucked ever since Italian company candy bought them out in 2006 (in terms of appliances. I wouldn’t personally touch a modern Hoover product with a bargepole, but it’s still one of the biggest washing machine brands in the uk and Ireland due to their usually large sized drums at a reasonable cost.
Ebac do a 9kg machine, seems rather disingenuous to mark them down because you got the smallest model to test, especially on something Google told me in a couple seconds of research, when that info could’ve been easily mentioned.
I’ve never had an Ebac washing machine, but out of the two models shown here I would pick it over the Chinese made, Chinese owned Hoover. I have used a Chinese made Hoover washer for a few months and although it washed OK, it would take an age to spin as the spin balance sensor is too sensitive. The quality of components used in the Hoover is poor compared to the Bosch and AEG models I have owned no not a patch on my current Miele machine.
The washing machines used by the gadget show in the episode where they tested mobile phones in them were provided by me, so I am disappointed to see the gadget show making such a flippant piece about a subject so important to the future of the planet. Ebac are ahead in the environmental stakes by some distance. They make machines that are actually built to last. They use less resources and are built here, making their carbon footprint outstanding. Their average answering time on the phones is seven seconds and the network of engineers they use are brought to the factory for feedback and training, something that is unique. I've worked on all manufacturers machines and Ebac is the real deal in terms of customer experience and environmental credentials. They are workhorse machines that do exactly what it says on the tin. Come on the Gadget show this is important stuff!
hoover just cannot compete there horrible cheap washers . my fiance auntie had one lasted 2 years and the tub cracked spewing water all over the floor and it was not overloaded and a 12kg model too. I dont have any experience with ebac but from what i hear they are good and pretty solid .
@@David-uf8ex Thats a real! made Original(HOOVER) Made in Wales! or italy! sadly since takeover there now Made in CHINA! and the Quality!/Build is nolonger HIGH!
What an awful and clearly sponsored review. What about the aspects that matter? Warranty, quality, longevity, customer service etc. Hoover wouldn't come close in any of them.
Funny to see the hoover was sneakily set to heavy soil!!!! And more tea staining remained on the hoover then the ebacs standard wash cycle that was not enhanced
Load of Tosh Hoover have paid them, Ebac wins on Electricity/Water usage Ebac wins Carbon footprint Ebac wins in Manufacturers Warranty 7yrs standard with Ebac and all parts serviceable and nothing beats it on the noise test and the Hoover wobbled the jelly far more and at far more decibels plus Ebac has a far superior build Quality.
The only important test they missed was how long would they last, and eas of use. From experiance I can tell you that the wifi set up on the hoover is far too complicated and just after the warrenty exp;ired so did the machine.
Thanks for sharing. As a repairer (as I'm sure others are too here) I'm very glad to hear about a UK manufacturer making appliances here in the UK, with parts that can be serviced or replaced. Hopefully the Gadget Show will discuss service and running costs in future features, in detail, to cover this very important area.
Glad i spotted this as next month i am scrapping my 4 year old Hoover for a ebac or bosch . They would have to be really terrible to be worse than this problem riddled Hoover . Bad comparison show .
The problem with comparisons like this, is they miss what people might really be interested in. The ethos behind the Ebac is ease of repair, when so many of it's competitors have become disposable goods. That is worth far more on a washing machine to 99% of consumers, than wifi or 2 minutes on a load.
I don't understand why a free standing washing machine (the Ebac) is being compared to an integrated version (the hoover, you can see the points on the front panel for a kitchen door and the lack of a cover on the drain house where the skirting board would go) when hoover does plenty of free standing versions. As highlighted there was no mention of Ebacs 7 year parts a labour warranty, compared to hoovers 1 year labour 5 year parts warranty .
I have a Candy grand O [A hoover with different clothes on] Its the biggest pile of crap i have ever owned .We are so sick of it my wife has started using our old [real ]Hoovermatic twintub
Assembled in the UK featuring Chinese parts! Hoover and Hotpoint are known as being unreliable our LG built in Poland has been going well and is very quiet. Ebac is better quality and longer lasting and cheaper than German made Miele.
When I see rubbish like this I am reminded why I stopped paying the tv license. You get what you pay for I have always had Hoover machines they have lasted years clean excellently and I will continue to purchase them when needed

That's good to know.
Because no one buys eBac. Hoover is one of the biggest brands in the uk

Even Miele had issues not has good has they used to be even they still the best Siemens iq700 washing machine are good?

I have always found Hoover machines good value and ten years on very reliable

@@David-uf8ex They always were until manufacturing in Wales ended.
They should have done a quality test bet the hoover wouldn’t have won that
Day 3 of finding beko owners
@@BluCoco3-l9w nice job I have a hotpoint
Ebac ALL the way!!!! Hoover are terrible these days……
Candy/Hoover washers are the worst in my opinion, but Ebac isn't really good too....

Go Ebac direct from Ebac I love mine very silent best washer I've had TBH

There is now way any machine would wash from black tea stains unless you use much better detergent.
what a load of pointless malarkey

Hoover is now made in the UK
Assembled in the UK featuring Chinese parts! Hoover and Hotpoint are known as being unreliable our LG built in Poland has been going well and is very quiet. Ebac is better quality and longer lasting and cheaper than German made Miele.

Why support British manufacturing, when you can order Chinese garbage with wifi?
Hoover and Candy never fails to dissapoint
I hate washing machines sorry gadget team great share though!
I Like them
@@Hwash500-t18 no!
