Hi Mike I would steer clear of Electrolux combinations as I had to get both repaired in each of the flats I rented when living in Northampton. In both machines, the dryer packed in. I wouldn't recommend a combination machine anyway, but definitely not what I have said above.

I am not concerned about avoiding or trying to buy from a particular manufacturer. I am only concerned about the machine we buy being reliable, effective and having available tactile markings (to order separately if necessary). Any advice or tips would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help. Best wishes, Mike Higgins, Email: m.j.higgins@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Address: 1 Portland Court, Sheffield, S6 3EW, UK.
