Hello Pat,
I would advise that you buy a surge protector for your washing machine if you do bring it over here to Spain, as this product was made for the UK market. The only thing is if you do bring it over and it develops a fault then how do you get parts for it? If on the other hand you sold it and bought new over here then you would not have that problem. You also get two years warrenty on the machine and the parts would be cheeper.

I leave it up to you to decide good luck

We brought our washing machine with us, nearly 5 years ago, and it’s still going strong. :D

We brought ours too. If it's cold fill then I'm sure it will be OK.

We bought ours three years ago and getting parts is not a problem, you can buy the same machine's here as you can in the UK.
