Immaculate 4.5 year old F&P washing machine, pickup in Waikanae or Wellington
Our receipt (pictured) shows this popular Fisher & Paykel MW513 5.5kg top loader was bought 4.5 years ago for $630. They currently sell for $730 new and this one has had little use by an elderly couple.
Features: 10 year warranty on SmartDrive motor, stainless steel bowl, highly adjustable options, easy to use, low power consumption etc.
Dimensions: 1030-1050mm high (1350 with lid open), 560mm wide, 560mm deep.
It is listed on TradeMe (just search for the same title as this post) in an auction closing at 4pm Saturday, so you can read answers to questions and just bid there if you prefer not to buy directly on Neighbourly. The start price is $199 - a real bargain for this great example of a popular model with full NZ-based parts and repair support.
One condition: It must be picked up from Mount Victoria within 48 hours of purchase, because I am very short on storage space here.
