Anyone had any luck repairing these. Sounds like the bearings are going on my 2 year old machine. Thought that’s a bit rubbish but I’ll order some bearings and then either employ someone or do it myself.

Seems however it has a sealed drum and it’s £193 plus vat to get a new one. It looks like it will be cheaper to just buy a new one. Bloody annoying and seems like lots of new machines are like this.

So anyone had any luck in finding anybody to fix these?

Just go the consumer rights act route - it’s not fit for purpose if failing at 2 years so the retailer needs to repair or replace at their cost.

There’s a template on the Which website that will generate a letter to the retailer for you - and if the retailer won’t play ball just buy a new one and then take them to the small claims court to get the money back.
