This maschine is very very beautiful, almost like hotpoint/ariston aqualtis last generation. Keep up the good work
Nice find, bearings/spider very rarely go on these machines anyway so no need to worry about that. And yes you're correct, it's made in February 2013. Very reliable these machines are!
yeah, I can't wonder why they threw it out. I think i'll keep it in the garage for a while.
Very good machine! Please keep it
Why?
@@bootsowen from my experience, these were best of the best, I had one that was the range above it and loved it and the campsite I go to has this but in 7kg 1500rpm and it’s very good, even though this isn’t the 1600rpm model it’s got quite a good spin action and it actually uses quite a bit of water for the wash and rinses which is quite good (which is from a owner of a machine that doesn’t much water which isn’t good for a regular load in household
If i had the space, id be collecting washing machines myself, repairing then, or restoring them. Great vid!!!
Why do you need space?
@@bootsowen always use the daily quick program on our 2 bekos with different temperatures
Nice find! Beko machines like to have door issues a lot. I'm from turkey and i have an arçelik 7103he washing machine and the door hinge broke, we called arçelik technical support and they fixed it for a high price. Then the start stop button cracked and i didnt wanted to call technical support since they charged too much money for it, i opened the top and removed the motherboard and replaced the keypad. Then the door latch broke i removed the glass door and opened the plastic part of the door and fixee it myself. Beko/arçelik machines are easy to fix in my opinion because all of the models of them are pretty much the same.
That's pretty good find
I also have to lift the door up for my bosch Maxx 6
Reliable machines
I have this exact machine
THE MACHINE WORKS VERY WELL I DON'T KNOW THAT WHY WOULD SOMEONE WILL LEAVE IT ON THE STREET OUTSIDE OFF THE HOUSE FAR AWAY
It's almost the same washer but ours works much better
You could put a old Bosch brushed washing machine in that bosch vario perfect and throw bricks in it
Nice classic (old beko) very very solid and very very good condition!! bearings great, apart from hanging door! i would say there no real good reason to chuck it out (maybe dated but defo useable) great video :D
Dont worry about the snots and stuff in door seal or the suds - bekos always do that - they have probs the best rinses on any machine :)
you ever thought of when u see the rusty machines, spray paint them?
id try a 90' wash just to make sure that works if does i think its perfectly fine!
What about smashing it with a brick, bekos are always good for that?
@@bootsowen nah that's a complete waste if the machine is working
@@bootsowen no
How much is a machine like that worth?
Please keep this it's a very good machine
What makes it a good machine
@@bootsowen soo these are the basic wmb models and the other ones lasted for ever and the drum on these almost never go wrong and older bekos are just so reasonable so please clean this up and you could maybe keep it for your work shop clothes?
Sorry tgsi comment was long
you have a good luck
This Machine Looks Very Old
these are nice machines
Looks a good one
It must be a good machine. Peter Gabriel wrote a wicked song about it!
Salisbury hill?
Scrap visit today.
2 kgs electrical appliance cable - £1.50 per kg - £3
4.4kg steel shred ,- 18p per kg - 79p
Total £3.79
Good stuff, are you going on a bike or a car? What kind of stuff are you scrapping? you should post some scrapping vids!
@@bootsowen on that occasion the steel was a computer my friend was throwing out and some little bits.
My friend gave me a lift in his car, usually I would take the bike trailer.
I am more of a cord cutter, all I really carry is a pair of cutters and some screwdriver.
I keep an eye on Facebook, Freecycle and Gumtree ads for stuff.
Today I took some flat plugs out of the freezer and broke them up.
I try and avoid steel, my biggest income item is cable.
I like cable, it seems to have a very good price and is easy to store. I carry a channel lock pliers, a side cutters and some screwdrivers, I seem to be able to get most things that way. I keep a look out for skips that have copper and brass plumbing parts, good heavy taps are what I really like.
just throwing away my 6 y old Beko...that worked 1 per week for 4 years...for 1 person, 7kg machine....i hate it! it tore my garments...did not wash properly....just made things wet!(for guys this may look ok...but it just did not do the job) plus it just started leaking water under...i paid 300 eur for it....i would never recommend it!....and bought LG now...i would never use other people's machines because filled with dirt (poop, urine) and they must smell ugly :) cause mine certainly did! and i am suuuper clean person
do more hot washes, the smell/filth is because you are not cleaning your machine, Imagine wearing your clothes!!
@@bootsowen yes true...will do now with the new one.....i was just trying to avoid damage to my clothes....i was doing 60 degrees washes..mostly 40 C....maybe the leakage was no big deal.....but i know i hated her from day 1 because it made holes in my clothes
@@bootsowen btw i did not undrstand what is there to be celaned lol cause it looked clean from the inside........now will clean the new one regularly....but old machines never smelled that way
if you use too much soap, especially liquid soap, it builds up a layer of soap and poo etc between the drum and the tub, the bit you cant see. You can clean it using acid like vinegar, or bicarb, or citric acid, I find using very little soap, like 1 desert spoonful for a full load still makes bubbles and that is enough. Wash your towels very hot like 90 when you wash them and use less soap. also you don't need fabric softener, haven't used it in 10 years. If your clothes smell clean they are just perfumed from too much soap and that scum inside the tub.
@@bootsowen oh i always put a bit more of liquid soap because we have very hard water, but eco liquid ...so not the artificial one. Thank you so much for advice....i will defo pay attention to it more now
Please keep it don't smash it.
Why, I like to smash Bekos!
It's good tho
@@bootsowen don't smash it. It works even though it's in bad shape you can still sell it for a cheap price. It's more useful and better for the environment then just wasting it
@@bootsowen why do u talk about that peapole shouldnt waste aplainces then smash them
How much is an old machine like this worth
i will never understand why people dont care about her apliances and let them go in a verry bad condition like this...
People are strange, some people have very clean houses, some....don't
@@bootsowen thats true… i prever the middle… not dirty like this machine, not hygienic clean… just clean and nice 😄
#I❤bekos
what do you do with the machines when you repair them do you sell them on
Usually give them away. Or smash them.
