Washing Machine recommendations sought

Yes, sad but true, it has come to this. Our sizeable Admiral/Maytag washer has bitten the dust. Well the amount Maytag want just to pop in and say hello indicates the need to move on as general washing machine fixers seem unable to source parts and fix our monster. We are used to a 10kg load but realise we'll have to come down from that which isn't too much of a problem.

So what do you recommend? I hear Miele get good reviews and are expected to last 20 years which might outlive me :-(

You thoughts are as ever recieved gratefully.
