Fagor Electrodomésticos is based in Spain, but the home and commercial appliances manufactured by this company are sold all over the world, from France and Portugal to Morocco. For several decades it was a part of Mondragon Group, a corporation of worker cooperatives, established in the Basque region of Spain in 1956.
Today Fagor sells more than half of its products domestically and is considered the country’s largest home appliance company. Also, it is the fifth largest white goods manufacturer in the EU. Its range of products is comprehensive, from washing machines and fridges, to dishwashers and beverage centers. Professionals can find commercial equipment that varies considerably in capacity, and in addition to this Fagor also produces a wide range of home appliances.
In addition to its own brand, Fagor sells white goods under several other names, including Edesa, Aspes, Mastercook, Brandt, and De Dietrich.
One of the most successful achievements of the last decade has been the purchase of the Brandt Group, which took place in 2005. However, more recently the company has been experiencing financial problems. Fagor suffered heavy losses during the financial crisis in the EU. Its French subsidiary announced bankruptcy and was purchased by Algerian Cevital Group, while Fagor Electrodomésticos, in its turn, was bought by CATA Electrodomésticos in 2014.
Even in case of minor Fagor dishwasher problems, repair fees can be rather high, in spite of the fact that all the work is done in less than half an hour. To double the frustration, service engineers are not always available at once, so you sometimes have to wait for hours. There is a smarter decision: use the following list of Fagor dishwasher error codes to tackle the problem on your own.
