Re: Warning about Dishwasher

Are you sure this was genuinely from B&Q? I always think using "the below" is poor grammar.

I checked first, Annie, and it was definitely from their email domain. It also had their black & orange logo paper.

Maybe just someone in the office doesn't have the best of grammar.

Re: Warning about Dishwasher

If this is an official email then standards are certainly slipping! That's a shame Mups and so scary. Can you get a refund? I mean the last thing you expect is a dangerous dishwasher. Many leave it running and go to bed.

I like Bosch but so difficult to find a replacement slimline. We have had our bosch slimline for 16 years and it's still chugging along. Terrified to change as who knows what you are getting these days.

Annie, as I said in the opening post - "this doesn't affect me."
I posted it for others just incase.

I've never had a dishwasher in my life.
