Efficient, silent & great value.
5/5
Was on the hunt for a new washer dryer with good energy rating and performance but at an affordable price. I remembered using this model in an airbnb during a recent holiday and decided to go for it vs similar ones.
After a couple of weeks, I’m really happy with it!
Super quiet, the fast wash is a saver with a toddler or whenever you need something ready.
I was concerned about 1200rpm spin as my previous one was a 1600 one but I guess technology has come a long way in 12 years and clothes come out drier at a lower spin. Also a bit smaller than my old one overall but much larger door and drum.
I love the fact you are able to link your phone too, didn’t have issues with the connection.
The timer also works great as the energy saving programs are long so getting the machine to start in the middle of the night is perfect.
As some other reviews have mentioned, there is some minor water pooling in the rubber seal but it’s minimal and it doesn’t affect how dry the clothes are, it takes 2 sec to wipe dry.
The only 2 “issues” - not even real ones as not deal breakers in any way - are:
- as the machine has a ‘smart’ feature that takes into account your actual load, some programs end up taking longer than what stated initially. If you have the app connected you can monitor that and after a couple of weeks I’m getting the hang of adjustments so it’s not a biggie.
- the machine only beeps once and really quietly at the end of a program so unless you are close by you don’t even hear it. My old one was annoyingly repeatedly beeping loudly for 10+ min but that made it less likely to forget your wash ??
Haven’t tested the dryer yet as I don’t use that often.
