Initially I was unsure how i felt about this product but after a week's use, I am beginning to understand it. I love the fact i can change spin speeds and mix and match temperatures and programmes. It's not as quiet as some of the reviews led me to believe but if i time it for an early morning wash, it doesn't disturb my daughter who sleeps above the kitchen so all good.
Instruction booklet not great, i abandoned it in the end in favour of just using my common sense.
I haven't sussed the dryer completely yet but the cottons programme is good for towels
All programmes much longer than my old machine but i think that's standard.
It looks very smart in the kitchen.
Overall, so far, I'm really pleased with it.
