Score 6.0/10

Good points:: Overall washing seems to be very good.
Bad points:: Drying not so good as things are either bone dry with creases or still damp. I think it just may need some getting used to.

Product Features

Construction	Freestanding
Built-in machines have a cabinet door attached to the front of them so that they look like the rest of your kitchen. Freestanding machines can be seen and the machine can be placed in any position in your kitchen.
Drum material	Stainless Steel

Energy efficiency	A
The more efficient the product, the less energy it needs and the more you get for your money. ‘A’ rated products are the most efficient and ‘G’ rated products are the least efficient.
Spin efficiency	B
The more efficient the spin, the more water will be extracted from your washing which means it will need less time in the dryer or less time on the line. ‘A’ rated products are the most efficient and ‘G’ rated products the least efficient.
Wash efficiency	A
This rating refers to how well a machine cleans during a cycle. ‘A’ rated products are the most efficient and ‘G’ rated products the least efficient.
Energy Savings Trust feature	No
A Yes means this this product has been rated as being energy-efficient by the Energy Savings Trust. Good for the environment and good for your electricity bill!
Height in cm	85
The distance from the very top of the product to the very bottom.
Width in cm	59.5

Depth in cm	64.5

Type of dryer	Condenser
Vented dryers have a hose which transfers the waste, damp air out of the machine and through a hole in the wall or a window to the outside. They are less expensive than condenser machines but the hose means they need to be placed by an outside wall. Condenser machines collect the excess water within the machine which can then be emptied after use. They therefore do not need a hose and can be placed anywhere in the house.
Release date	2008-05-09
The date the product was originally made available for purchase.
Type of loading	Front loading
This refers to where you can load the washing into the machine. Front loading is when the door is on the front of the machine and top loading is when you put washing in through an opening at the top of the machine. When purchasing a top loading machine, make sure you have enough room to open the hatch (top loading machines cannot be placed under a worktop). When looking for front loading machines, take note of which way the door opens so that you can make sure you have enough room to take washing in and out of the machine.
Revolutions per minute	1200

Water control system	Yes
Helps to protect against flooding by monitoring any leaks from the machine. If a leak is detected, it will close the valve to stop any more water entering the machine.
Start delay option	Yes
Enables you to delay the start of the cycle. This is useful if you want to set the machine to go on during the night so that you can take advantage of cheaper electricity rates.
Display	Yes
Child lock	Yes
A mechanism that makes it difficult for children to open the machine during operation.
Water Consumption in Litres (60° C)	70
The average amount of water your machine uses per 60 degree wash.
Energy Consumption in kWh (60° C)	1.46
