Score 8.0/10+ great value for money, easy to use and does the job. Isn't any noisier than my last machine which was supposed to be the most silent on the market!
- Always have to repeat the spin cycle as the first spin leaves the stuff a bit soggy but it's almost dry when it comes out after a second spin. Cotton 30 wash takes forever! Over 2 hours so I just use the synthetics 30 for normal soil wash and it's just as good.

Score 10.0/10+ Easy to use, great simple washing machine. Very quiet on fast spin, and energy efficient.
- The only not so great point, is that I used to have a 1600 spin washer (which blew up), so this seems to take longer on cycles as it is a 1200 spin. However, that said, it was brilliant value for money, and is a great machine.
