Not sure whether this is the right place but would love it if someone could offer advice.
We were planning to buy a new washing machine when we moved into our new place at the end of the year but our current one packed it in so we brought the purchase forward. We went to Harvey Norman and the guy reccommended an Ariston Front Loader. Went on about how it's built in Italy, while everything else around the same place is built in China/Thailand. After checking out some other stores we ended up going back and buying the Ariston for $800 delivered. When I got home I checked the web and have found some mixed reviews about this brand. Actually according to one review I read, Ariston are actually owned by Harvey Norman.
Just wondering whether anyone has had a good/bad experience with this brand. I'm thinking maybe I'll go back and choose something else.
