Interesting thread
I'm interested in both laundry appliances and vacuums.
Over my time I've used many machines through home, family and through rented accommodation.
I'll try to put them in some forms of order:
Hoover Electron (childhood machine)
Hoover New Wave
Bendix tumbler (both at home)
Zanussi Nexus (nans machine)
My aunt has had a few Zanussi's over the years think she's even had a couple of old indesits, she now has a Beko (eek!)
My cousin has an Indesit washer dryer
At uni we had Maytag Neptunes
After the new wave began playing up, we acquired a Hotpoint WMA35
First rented house had a basic Hotpoint first edition, my other aunt has the same
Second rented house had a Hotpoint WMA35, in the same colour as the one at home!
Last rented house had a whirlpool awod, can't remember the model, it was a six sense.
And finally at home, we have a brand new Miele w3228, just like another poster on here
As well as a visit to bosch as a kid, I've tried some of the older models
