Specialist not supermarket
Never buy refrigerators, cookers, dishwashers or garden machinery from a supermarket! They’re only after your money and generally have no back up for spares or repairs
Buy instead from an independent outlet or a specialist chain. They have the knowledge and experience to keep your equipment working. It might sound like a bargain at the supermarket but in the long run it will cost you more!
