Single mum here, who didn't want to pay for installation but eas worried. thank you so much!!!! Video really helped and super easy xx
Great video, no unnecessary waffling on , just clear to the point instructions.
Thank you
😂😂😂
I've only ever fitted an old school washer waaaay back when with my dad, so for a single woman moving into her own flat, this has been a great video. Dad would be proud. Thanks.
boooo
Thank you for giving me the confidence not wait for my husband and father in law any longer. Definitely not as complicated as I thought it would be and made easier by your clear instruction. My son's school uniform is now clean!!
Thanks for giving me the confidence to buy a washing machine which didn't include an installation-upon-delivery option. If all goes to plan, you've saved me lots of money!
Bro thank you so much, no cap you saved the day. My missus was telling me to sleep outside. I used two coins (I didn’t have a spanner/wrench) and all of my strength to open up the bolts. From there it was like taking candy from a baby🎉
This is briliant, just saved me a £70 installation charge. The poorly printed instruction sheet just added to my woes then I found this video and was able to install my new washing machine myself. Feeling pretty accomplished right now 😌😃 thank you!!!
I was just in the exact same situation as yourself….watched this video and was really glad I did 😊😊
I too mate ❤
Thank you sooooo much!!! We were just forced to move houses by our local council and now with this video we finally have our washer back!
Thank you!! Just moved into mine and my daughters new home, and my dad passing away when I was young and no family nearby this has been a god send!
Suffered for 8 hours, but then did it with your help. Thank you so much
Excellent. I'm glad I helped
I’m so scared to do a washing machine installation myself but this video has made me feel more confident that I might be able to do it!
I've just bought a Candy which is similar to the Hoover in this video. That black square on top of the machine before you unpacked it is actually the base of the washing machine. You should have fitted it after removing the locking bolts. It is designed to reduce the noise of the machine.
Good video. I'm an engineer but never fitted a washing machine. Straight forward video showing everything showing all operations
Thank you sir. Just installed a washing machine on my own. I am so chuffed with myself 😁
40yo female with no prior experience. Those tools that my dad gave me years ago, came in handy. But I just just a standard keys.. small spanners. Don’t know what they are called.
Just run a short cycle and there are no leaks and it looks so be working just fine. 💪🏼💪🏼
Thank you. I have just moved into a flat and feeling quite overwhelmed with all the things I have to build and set up and this video really helped.
Oh my god thank you so mum, single mum here and they was trying to charge me £100 plus VAT so I’ve gone without a machine for 4weeks 😢 & now I’ve done it 😁 thank you so much 🙏 us women really get taken the mickey out of with these things & our cars
I have had my clean water pipe on the wrong way round for 10 years. Thank you for this.
Helped my sister move into her house today. Neither of us had fitted a washing machine, this video got me through it. Really is simple, thanks so much for the video
Thanks Stewart Mathews 😅 very simple and straightforward 🎉
Stewart, thank you so much. I’ve recently moved out of my family home, and I’ve just moved in to a rented apartment. They didn’t tell me that they didn’t have any white goods 😂😂 So I’ve just installed my first washing machine, and that’s thanks to you mate! You’ve got yourself a loyal subscriber and a like 👌
Excellent - well done! Glad I could help
I had a Hoover Perfoma, and it was at least 25 years old. It started to make a lot of noise so I gave it to my friend for scrap. I have just bought this exact model as yours. I actually thought there was something wrong with it, as I couldn't believe how long the spin lasted until I watched your video. Thanks.
Thank you very much for this mate. Me and my partner first time house owners and there isn’t always someone on hand to help with these kinda things. This video very straight up and non-condescending presentation means I very much doubt this is the last one of yours I watch - thanks again!
My washing machine is on its way to me, this video helped me a lot to understand how to do installing properly. Other videos on TH-cam are just rubbish imo.
Yoh, thanks you are such a life saver for the DIY simple instructions, I followed each an every step and it's now working perfectly. Thanks a million ⚔ times
🤩 That’s a proper DIY! You’ve made it so easy, I now have the confidence to do it myself, that’s a £50 saved!
Thank you so much you giving me confidence I am expecting a new washing machine and going to install it myself 😊Hope everything will go ok and I will save £30. Much appreciated
Thank you for this, just moved into my first home and I hadn’t a clue. Saved £70. Thanks for simplifying it for people that don’t have a clue like me!
Excellent video, thank you. Concise, to the point, very helpful. One tip I will say is your music is a lot louder than your voice! I turned up the volume but the music became deafening when it cut in 😂
You've made me an installation expert in 7 min. Now apart from installing computers, family members ask me to install their washing machine, as well. 😅
In any case, great video, man! Much appreciated! 👍 Another 50 quid saved! 😁
Very good excellent very simply you explained it. Very useful tips Thanks
Thank you! I've just finished setting it up, your step by step instructions made it less daunting.
Thank you i'm getting one in 4 days praise God now i know how to fix it through your great Video God bless you greetings from Germany have a blessed day 😂
Glad it helped
@@ProperDIY yes a lot thank you blessed day 😊
Googled this today and came across your channel, thanks, got a theme song and everything
50€ saved, i live alone and finally got to buy a new washing machine! Thanks alot!
Thank you , very helpful for single mother. Very Clear explanation .
Brilliant mate. Way easier than the bloody manual i received with my new machine.
Glad it helped
thanks for proper lead and you saved few quids of many of this video viewers.
Thanks again mate.
Sure many viewers felt the same as like me. Appreciate you.
Very very helpful mate. Great instruction. Subscribed!
Watched this video on two occasions now as I'll be installing one for my brother. You explain things that even a common man can do..
Thank you Stuart; lovely, clear and concise video. I had a reasonable idea what to do but your vid answered the questions I had nicely (PS ...also subscribed!).
Interesting tip worth knowing about washer/dryer combos: if you put too many clothes in the machine on the drying cycle which causes the heating element to trip, all you have to do is remove the top panel of the machine (normally a thin panel of wood) and look for a couple of square "push switches", press both, and this will reset the trip

Thanks Stuart. Very helpful information. Peace and love
I was like: oh 7 minutes are too many I just need the basics, but the video is quite clear and very interesting! Thank you for the help
A fantastic guide on how to install a washing machine!
Thank you sir! Cheers!
Mate thanks so much! It was useful and easy! I installed it over the weekend and saved £50!! This video gave me confidence!
Glad it helped
Nicely done, straight forward and very well presented........thanks 👍
Thank so much, amazing explanation.
Literally just bought the model you installed!!!!
Great idea about the hose clip, which luckily I had.
So helpful, thank you very much.
Thank goodness I watched your video ! I plumbed our new washing machine in but hadn't removed the transportation bolts ! What would have happened if my wife had tried doing the washing, I shudder to think !
Thank you this was extremely helpful.😀
Clear and concise instructions...terrific. Thank you
I was quoted £75 for this. Thanks to this video did it for free in few mins
I was very impressed with your enthusiasm, I feel quite hyped to do my washing machine 💪
Cheers for the fabulous video
Thank you good sir. Really enjoyed the video. Now I'm feeling brave enough to try it myself.
Go for it!
Cheers mate I hadn’t installed a washer for decades, and have a new one arriving later. Had a thought: I wonder if it’s still the same? Other than the new waste water fitting it is but the confidence boost from your straight forward style and thorough coverage really helped, ta mate.
Fascinating it's interesting to see the differences between a washing machine in the UK versus the US is. We still have hot and cold and centrally heated water where as it makes more sense to run electric and do on-demand heating in 240v countries. Transportation bolts that's a crazy idea. And you said you don't need to explain what that gray thing is but it doesn't make any sense to me the end is way to big to be a power cord (sarcasm joking) LOL.
Plastic hose for the water inlet. For the longest time we used rubber/plastic there seems to be a big push lately to use braided metal houses because somehow they don't leak. I've never had one leak and besides the metal mash is over a rubber plastic anyway. usually most of the damaged here's is the metal thread fittings that are made of cheap metal and rust out if not cared for.
And washing machine in the kitchen crazy. Usually in older homes they were in the basement or bathroom and sometimes closet. newer houses kind of do more of the laundry room.
And most of the big hardware stores here to free installation upon delivery unless it's terribly difficult to get it in your door.
Thank you so much for your tutorial! It was easy after I watched your video. Saved 75 pounds just before Christmas! Liked and subscribed 🎉🎉🎉🎉
This video was so goood, I love the energy of it. very informative as well thank you. I feel like a 21th century DIY professional.
Thank you
Excellent video, great concise information presented in a way that is approachable, understandable and professional 👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it!
This really helped. Thanks
I know. How many of these videos have some idiot rambling on and on with unclear instructions and lenghty explanations, and at the end you feel frustrated. Some people can explain, others can't
Super helpful. Thank you
This is a great video. Leave his music alone people.
Superbly clear instructions, thank you.
You’re a diamond 💎. My sister and I just removed our old machine and plumbed in the new one with ease after watching this. Thank you so much!
Nice one!
Very good , thank you man, well explained, easy to do
When trying to slide the machine into a recess on a laminate or vinyl floor smear some washing up liquid near the feet and it slides in much easier. Sounds crazy but it works. One other thing to be careful of is the waste water in the sink is higher than the height of washing machine waste pipe. If you have a slow draining kitchen sink (or a partially blocked u-bend) there is a risk of the dishwater backing up into the waste pipe of the washing machine. Keep the waste hose as high as possible - I have mine hooked to the underside of the worktop
Good tips!
It will slide when you don't want it to if yo uoverdo the washing up liquid. Try sliding it on a carpet tile or scrap of hardboard - then tip th emachine to withdraw it.
Installed the washing machine via this video. Many thanks.
Glad it helped
Thank you very much, Samsung's instructions on installing the drainage pipe connected to the sink was not clear at all.
I never would have guessed it would have to be sawed off and require a Jubilee clip - something else I'll now have to go buy but looks like it'll be ready to go very soon!
No problem
God you made my life so easy, Thank you. Before watching you demonstrating how to install, I was struggling and lost.
Glad I could help
Great Work from Dublin Ireland 🙂🇮🇪🍀
Great video Stewart, very helpful to have detailed yet easy to follow instructions! I had been enquiring around and apparently I wouldn't have been able to find anyone willing to do it for less than £70. I did it in minutes with your advice. Subscribed! 👍🏻
Excellent well done. Once you know how it's not difficult- like most things - just need to be shown
I watch many of your videos out of curiosity... because I'm in Canada and things are quite a bit different here from there.
Like your washing machines. Compared to yours, ours are huge. The ones that are in our rental apartment, for instance, is a top-loader that can wash our biggest blanket without trouble... it's an oversized queen sized heavy fleece/mink style. We also have dryers to make our lives easier. I don't know about you, but hanging clothes on a line in -40C temperatures is not my idea of a good time.
By the way, I also really enjoy learning things from you. You have an excellent way of explaining things so that a novice can understand. Thank you for that.
Thank you so much you have just saved me £115!
Thanks for the tutorial, I always like to have a go at fitting or mending something for my self 👍
No problem 👍
This is what I'm looking for, thanks 🎉
Top man, very simple and easy explanation thank you.
Thanks for your video Sir. It really helped me
Thank you so much! Very well explained and helpful
Just a thought about moving appliances around a kitchen: the feet might damage a vinyl floor for example and I find a piece of hardboard shiny side down is great for sliding things around.
Thanks for the tip!
I use a thick towel.
I lube the floor with a thin layer of cooking oil, then wipe it dry afterwards. Soooo much easier.
thank you!😊
Thanx for the video just connected my washing machine
brilliant. great vid

Nice video. Interesting to see that it is normal in the UK to have the washing machine in the kitchen.
Thank you so much! Just saved myself £50 😅
Thanks for the great video, very helpful. Would you recommend to use any rubber mat for vibration?
