Nick, Busy mum or dad

Score 8.0/10

Good points:: Extremely quiet, very good range of options, very green (water and electricity consumption)
Bad points:: Slow standard cycle (nearly 3 h!), but (a) quick wash works very well and (b) we normally run the machine at the end of the day anyway. Suspect the slow cycle is how the machine achieves its environmental rating.
