I’d be interested in your lease arrangement and what you get quoted, as we have five washing machines and four driers in a complex of 36 flats. I have been wondering about getting some commercial grade machines as the normal domestic ones seem to fail regularly and the manufacturers won’t honour any warranty as they say we are a commercial premises. We have replaced four machines in the last 2 years as they were “uneconomic” to repair.
Leasing may be a way forward I had not considered.
