Argos is a great place to go online no matter what you want to buy. The website is huge but despite that you will find it very straightforward to locate the section with all the washing machines in it.
This is because the menu splits off into various sections as you go through the site. As you are about to see, Argos is one of the best places you could go to for a washing machine. But do they have the one that will suit you?
How do I locate their website?
The Argos website is at www.argos.co.uk.
How can I see all the washing machines they sell?
The Argos site has those two familiar blue bars across the top of it. These hold links to all the main sections of the website. Look for the one that says ‘kitchen and laundry’ – you’ll find it on the left side – and click on it. You will then see an option to select ‘washing machines and tumble dryers’ in the list that appears in several sections on the following page.
That takes you through to this page – http://www.argos.co.uk. From there you will see there is a separate section for built in washing machines, as well as the main section and link to washing machines in general, of which there are more than two hundred.
Do they have a lot of washing machines to offer?
Yes they do – hundreds of them, as mentioned above. There are lots of famous brand names here including Zanussi, Beko, Hoover, Candy and Bush. You can narrow your search by brand, price or colour if you wish. Otherwise just look down the whole list until you find something you like.
As is customary with Argos, they start the list of results with the cheapest machines at the top. As you go through they become more expensive, but you get more features there too.
You have all the usual washing machine colours plus a few more unusual ones if you are looking for something more striking! The prices go up to several hundred pounds but there are plenty of options in the cheaper end of the equation.
Is there a lot of useful information on their site?
The main listings are very detailed for starters. You can read about the manufacturer, the name of the machine and the price. They are all listed for home delivery as they are not available direct from the stores. This is due to the size and weight of them.
The main page for each washing machine contains a larger photo to view, as well as a panel featuring all the most essential details. These come in a bullet point format so they are easily readable. You should easily be able to tell whether that machine has all the functions you are looking for.
Argos also has a built in reviews function, so you can read the opinions of other customers as well. This adds an extra depth to the page, so be sure to read them. The ratings are out of five stars; each person gives their rating and the overall star rating is given at the top, which is an average of them all. Some people stick to stars and don’t leave any comments, but the comments do reveal the best and worst (if any) features of the machines.
How easy is it to order my new washing machine online?
It is very easy – all you have to do is look for the green ‘buy or reserve’ button and click on it. The store pick up option will be greyed out as it isn’t offered with washing machines, so you just have to select the home delivery option.
Click the continue button and then either register, sign in if you already have an account, or buy without signing in at all. The checkout process is a five step process, but by the time you reach this stage you will already be on step three. It doesn’t take much longer to fill in your details and make payment.
In conclusion
Argos is a well known store that has put together a great collection of washing machines for your consideration. Once you are familiar with using the site you will find that it serves your needs very well indeed. Regardless of whether you want a basic machine or one that has all the latest features, Argos is sure to have it ready and waiting for you.
