Good machine but it's no Miele
4/5
Great washing capacity, build quality is ok I suppose, bit plasticy, especially the door, I imagine the internals are all plastic also, especially considering the pricepoint. The washer it replaced was an old 5kg Miele unit, so it obviously doesnt compare (Miele was a tank) but we needed the extra capacity and couldnt afford £1000's for an equivalent. The Hisense does appear to use plenty of water, which I think is good, it means your clothes are well rinsed, which not many washers do nowadays for eco reasons, a cottons wash takes 3.5 hours, which is a bit long (the Miele took 2h20 ,which I thought was too long...) but it has quick wash, mixed etc. nice and quiet too, but if you have one heavy item in the drum (towel, bath mat etc.) it wont balance and thus spin, probably a common thing on cheap high capacity machines.
