I bought one last july and up to a couple of weeks ago.....no problems. On doing some checks to find out what the metallic clicking sound was, I have come to the conclusion that it's one of the drum bearings starting to break up. Does anyone else out there have one of these? Has anyone else had this problem after such a short time? My previous 2 Zanussi's lasted well over 10 years before I had to replace the bearings.
