Very, very poor serviceability
General Comments
My Dyson CRO1 washing machine was bought in preference to a Miele with a 10 year guarantee. Obviously given with some confidence. The Dyson serviceability has been dreadful. 3 inner door handles, one new outer door, several leaks, one complete new drum assembly and another awaited. My last washing machine lasted 18 years, with 13 house moves, and it only needed a new set of motor brushes.
The Dyson is a triumph of style over substance. Well, reliability at least. When working it's brilliant, but for a £1000 I would have expected not to be on Christmas Card terms with the repairman.
