I need a new washing machine

My washing machine is coming to the end of it's life.
The noises coming from it are unbelievable.
I've been told the bearing have gone with other things , not worth a repair.
So I need a new one or will do in the next couple of weeks..
The problem is which one ?
I have been looking round and find i have totally confused myself.
What i need it a front load machine with 1200 spin ,quick wash and under £300.
There are only the 2 of us so no need for a large drum 6lb is enough.
Any advise on make performance & reliability will be gratefully received.
I think the best advise is from people actually using the machine.
I have an Indiset now which as been OK but i'm not a fan of the digital program settings .
And the paddles on the inside of the drum have come off twice.

So please I need help and advise

 

My daughter has recently bought a Hotpoint and is really pleased with it.
My family are all sports players, when they were all at home I was doing an average of ten wash loads a week, and was wearing out a washing machine every two and a half years. At that point I had Zanussi's and were reasonably happy with them.
I've now had a Miele for eight years. Yes they are expensive, but it's more than payed for itself in relation to buying one every couple of years and is still going strong. I've been told some have lasted for 30 years!

 

I have a Bosch, just a basic one but very reliable!!

I am on my second Indesit here. The first one lasted ten years and was remarkable bearing in mind for the first five years we used borehole water which was sometimes not at its best with various sediments. The bearing went on mine too. I had no hesitation in buying another having looked at the options. It cost €269 a year ago, has a 6kg capacity, A Class (the best for efficiency), has things like a 15 minute freshen-up cycle and three sport cycles as well as all the norm, ranging from 30-90ºC and has 7 spin cycles.
