- It was damaged after inspection when the delivery men left. The lid was loose with a broken catch. Upon reporting the fault we were told by both Currys and Beko that it was the other agency responsibility. As it was functioning othewrwise I decided it was too much trouble to pursue it further

Score 10.0/10+ This is a good value washing machine, basically it does what it says on the tin. I have found it easy to use with simple easy to follow wash cycles.
- The wash cycles are a bit long, although there is a quick 30 min cycle. I unpacked the machine and installed it myself, so I found the bolts in the back a bit hard to undo (I'm only a feeble woman!) but other than that it's been a great purchase.
