I introduce you my new washing machine- it will be delivered on Monday. According to shop assistant it is one of the best and most popular washing machine in Europe.
Beko Elektronik A.Ş. was founded by Vehbi Koç, the founder of Koç Holding (who also foundedArçelik A.Ş., the parent company of Beko, in 1955), in Istanbul, Turkey, 1967.
In 2004, Beko Elektronik purchased the German electronics company Grundig and by January 2005, Beko and its rival Turkish electronics and white goods brand Vestel accounted for more than half of all TV sets manufactured in Europe.
In April 2008, the electronics division of Beko renamed itself Grundig Elektronik A.Ş.
At the Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting of Arçelik A.Ş. on 29 June 2009, it was decided to merge Arçelik A.Ş. with the company's subsidiary, Grundig Elektronik A.Ş. (to be administered directly by Arçelik A.Ş. of Koç Holding) by taking over all of Grundig's assets and liabilities in whole.
Beko is a budget brand name and continues to be in use for a number of Arçelik A.Ş. products such as television sets,[5]refrigerators, washing machines and dishwashers, in several countries.
Beko has been the official sponsor of the Turkish, German, Italian and Lithuanian premier basketball leagues, as well as the 2014 FIBA Basketball World Cup in Spain. Beko is also among the official sponsors of the Spanish football team FC Barcelona and Turkish football team Beşiktaş JK, Turkmen football club FC HTTU and has been one of the largest advertisers in the EnglishPremier League since 2008, and an official sponsor of the FA Cup.
I hope it is a good choice.
I hope you will be very happy with your new choice!
ReplyDeleteLet's wait few months
DeleteIt looks fine. I wonder what the small door at the bottom is for? I've not heard any of the brands you mention except for Grundig, a brand of expensive sound systems here. Interesting company history. Happy washing.
ReplyDeleteAndrew this small door in the bottom includes filter which collects dust from the washing machine so must open it sometimes and check the container.
DeleteLooks good but no good for me with my back.
ReplyDeleteFront loading is completely out of the question.

Colin front loading is good too especially if you have problems of too small space
DeleteLooks a lovely machine. Had a front loader washing machine once, it always took too long to wash but the clothes were always lovely and clean from the wash.
ReplyDeleteKnow the name Grundig well..
Margaret in Europe front loading is the most popular. In my place German wshing machines are popular too 'Bosh
