Managed to break the door catch. Generally standard I believe. Any suggestions please where to go?

Cumarjus in Calle Magalllanes. They sell all kinds of spare parts and general electrical supplies.

As above. If they haven't got it in stock they can usually, in my experience, get it.

I've always found the internet to be a good place to go: espares.co.uk is good and, although a UK company, will post to Spain. :thumbup:

Got the parts I needed at Cumarjus, cheaper and quicker than espares.

And if we don't use independent local stores, eventually we will lose them.

Took door to Cumarjus yesterday morn, they said come back at six. Went back, part fitted. Perfect. I understand the comments about ordering online but a washing machine is used regularly and by doing it this way hopefully my other half will not find out how clumsy I was.

while e-spares is a good resource, i find that sometimes the part+shipping can be more expensive than the part locally.

This is NOT the case with car parts tho... they are alot cheaper online for the same brand.. if you´ve no hurry for them.

Unfortunatly places in spain dont seem to keep much stock, so the waiting time for both can be equal - unless for example they can get it the next day from a big local town.

Besides being quicker and cheaper than online you can take the old part to Cumarjus to show it to them so you can be reasonably sure of them supplying the correct part.

Tried to find a switch for our Spanish bought dishwasher on espares.
Despite putting in the exact make model none of the pictures looked the same.
Perhaps I was unlucky
Prefer to use Cumarjus.
