Score 8.0/10+ I live in an upstairs flat and was very aware the noise my old machine made and the effect this had on my neighbours but this machine is so quiet I forget its on. Big improvement on my last one. Also a good size fits neatly into the space.
- The only problem I have is that the cycle times are too long and the machine does not indicate how long the cycle has to run.

Score 8.0/10+ I wanted a cheap washing machine for occasional use - this has proved to be just what I was looking for. I did not want a load of features I would never use. This is about the cheapest you can get and does what it says. If you want a super quiet, quick machine with lots features and willing to pay more then find something else.

Score 10.0/10+ After 3 Bosch machines and short life I went to Beko as I have a Beko Freezer and cooker. Good build quality and easy to use. The drum is shallow ( front to back) but large in diameter. This makes it very good for the 1000 spin speed. You get more water out this way. I find it nearly as good as my old 1200 spin. Its quite and gentle on the clothes. The wash times are long but everything is clean. Great door seal etc and quality controls.
