Very efficient machine considering it's a washer dryer. Wash cycles work well, they are long but thorough. Drying also works very well, leaves laundry a bit softer than a tumble dryer so using less fabric softner. Really happy with the product.

Not really tested everything on this yet which is why only 3 stars and that's generous I think - due to these other comments. Spins clothes well, so not so soggy when you take them out. Don't want to use combined wash & dry options either - too expensive to do that - so at least I figured out how to do a wash only. But, there arent too many good options just for washing - there is no 60 minute wash, as far as I can see - only a very quick one (15 minutes I think?) which I cant see working very well to get things clean. Also cant raise the temp from 40 to 60 .The standard programmes seem to take a long time as well -about 1.5 hours on a wool wash and ages for just a rinse and spin. Can't really tell if clothes are any cleaner than my 14 year old indesit got 'em - but I haven't done any whites yet. Also - I used a lot of conditioner (to the maximum fill level) but clothes did not come out smelling particularly as if I'd used any, whereas on my old machine they did! The dryer only option I haven't dared try yet - I use it for towels only - as it is so complicated to fathom out -guess I'll have to call Hotpoint to talk me through it when I do decide to use it So far- I can't say I'm particularly happy this purchase really, I just hope it improves.

Solid product, seems well made; metal hinges etc . Easy to use, nice and quiet too. The only reason I went for four stars rather than five, is that I would like the faster spin to be available on more of the programs, especially through the winter when I want it as dry as possible to either tumble dry or put on an airer. But generally nice product.

So far so good! I was a little apprehensive to go for this washer/dryer, to to some of the review 'cons' but once you get to grips with the programmes, it's a great washer/dryer for the price. Yes, some of the programmes are rather long, but you can find shorter ones, such as using the 'rapid' option. It also looks good, and so I'm pleased with my purchase.

From the First twin tub when I was youngster till now when I am in my 60’s, my family had always had Hotpoint washing machines, and latterly washer/dryers for me,so it is with a heavy heat that I have to say I am truly disappointed. The length of time for a wash is more than twice that of previous machines - with one wash & dry programme taking a ridiculous NINE hours. The Dryer is disturbingly loud, making the pipes in the house knock and bang - my neighbours are not amused - and the dry only feature sometimes leaves the items hot and steamy. Called Hotpoint and apparently the noise is ‘normal’ for newer energy efficient machines (remember the 9 hour wash/dry programme?) and I was asked why I used the dry only feature - had to use it when the clothes came out hot and steamy after being on a wash and dry cycle!! If asked I wished to return this machine I’m afraid I would.

Love this product very sleek the graphite colour suits my scheme and machine is quiet and washes and dries well. Excellent value for money

All seems perfect so far. No problems

Another quality overseas manufactured product easy to use very quiet operating noise level along with a 10 years parts guarantee Recommended to me by my plumber as was AO who were outstanding from purchase to delivery Kind regards Gerald Phillips
