December 31, 201312 yr Not sure but I think the mother-in-law needs a rebuild, we had her round for Christmas and there was a lot of rattling coming from the top end! Anyone else had this problem? Edited December 31, 201312 yr by monty_jon
December 31, 201312 yr Ya I used to have one just like that, it was an Italian model and was the rattle was very dramatic I knew the newer version I had would end up exactly the same as it was exhibiting similar symptoms and costing me a lot of money so I got rid of both of them a few years ago
December 31, 201312 yr Author I’d say it was more of a whine than a rattle, but can turn to high speed chatter! Edited December 31, 201312 yr by monty_jon
January 1, 201412 yr Is it excessive noise from the bottom end or is it locked up? Neither one is good I sure hope it's not a leaky seal
January 1, 201412 yr Author Locked up sounds good to me Unfortunately the bottom end substantial, this is a pre60 heavyweight model
January 6, 201412 yr My Ex Mother in law (Italian model) always had harsh engagement which I thought caused all of the upper end noises. I went to remove a few springs and come to find out she had several screws loose in her basket!!! I also tried taking sand paper to her as well but that just made things worse. Turns out the next model (the Ex) also had the same quality problems!!! I gotta say that the initial fit and finish was not to bad but it went down hill quick. You could never get it muddy and they leaked tears like a siv. I have changed brands now and am much much happier... --Biff
