Remember us tenants are the lowest form of life, the agent rips us and the landlord off, the landlord rips us off, the bank rips the landlord off, we bail the bank out (or the bank rips us off)...
I'm not being cynical or anything but why should the landlord install proper reliable and economic appliances when they can install the cheapest cr*p, and we are forced to pay the utility bill and take time off from work when it breaks.
If it weren't for the insanity of UK property prices I'd have bought a house by now, even though I like the flexibility of renting, because most landlords and their agents are ar*e holes...!
