- Good points:
- Huge variety of programmes, really quiet and the drum is huge and can take quite a lot of washing. I originally ordered the 1600 spin model but it was taking far to long to come so went for 1400 spin and there is no differance.
- Bad points:
- It takes a lot of getting used to the differant drying levels. The sensor drying can get it wrong! and I have had the situation where clothes are dryed too well and won't iron!

Andy, North East
- Good points:
- Jam packed with features, outstanding energy efficiency, massive drum and unbelievable cleaning - clothes, towels and bedding look much brighter than before
- Bad points:
- Noisy at start of 1600 spin whilst it balances the load, but that's only 3-4 minutes after which, you can't even tell it's on!

- Good points:
- it has a large wide drum and takes a 8kg wash load. It is very quiet
- Bad points:
- doesn't do well with powder soaps or stain removers as some of these remain in the dispenser drawer so, must use liquid. There are so many features we are still trying to work out how to use them all and get the best out of the machine. Could do with a better user manual to explain features and when to use them

- Good points:
- Very quiet and very good load capacity.
- Bad points:
-
A little noisy when spinning, but having said that it is 1600 rmp, so some noise is to be expected.
Washing seams to come out very creased when on a combined wash/dry cycle, but we are still experimenting with settings to try to prevent this.
