IFB washine machines used to be good long time ago when it was manufactured in collabration with IFB Bosch. However these days it is really a useless machine with some parts that are of inferior quality. My IFB washing machine was working with only minor problems for first 2 years. However in the third year, there was a major problem.
The technician showed me that the bearing had gone, along with the drum and the frame that holds the drum. The bearing appeared to made of some extremely inferior quality metal. He also suggested that we take annual maintenance contract in future as this problem will recur every month. So that means I will have to go forcefully take AMC every year because this stupid thing will fail. In my opinion this is outright cheating by IFB. To top it you will have to wait for atleast a week for the service guy to show up.
I think people should avoid buying IFB which trys to make a fool out of the customer.
