Score 9.0/10+ Looks, ease of use, fast wash option. Have had several Indesit machines over the years and they have all lasted about 10 years without problems, excellent value for money and all have done the job efficiently. Hope this washing machine follows the trend!

manuela, oxford
Score 8.0/10+ it looks lovely. I like the fact that is calculates how much water to use and I like the option to reduce the washing cycle by 30%. It is relatively silent and cleans much better than my old washer. If is not too complicated or flashy. It does exactly what you need a washing machine to do without all the whistles and bells
- none really. I would have liked to have had a seperate compartment for bleach, but otherwise it is perfect.

Excellent machine for the price, being one of the lower priced machine on offer.
It washes very well.
- It does have a quick wash facility, which suits us better, but we do not use the quicker wash, as the spin speed doesnt spin and leave the clothes as dry as on a normal wash

Jayne, Wolverhampton
Score 10.0/10+ This washing machine has many different programs and is very easy to use. The instruction manual is brilliant, explaining in a table exactly what each program is for, what it does during the program and how long it takes. This is the best washing machine I have had, I use it every day.

Score 9.0/10+ The product is really good value for money. It's simple to use and it washes clothes very well. It also spins them well - they're almost dry when they come out.
- It is quite noisy. Also, the dimensions on the website are bigger than the machine actually is. If I'd taken notice of the dimensions, I wouldn't have bought the machine as it would be too large for the space, when in actuality it fits perfectly.
