Zanussi ZWF16070 reviews: Front Loading loading, 6kg capacity washing machine

+ Thorough wash and effective spin cycle.

- No indication of how much time until the end of the wash.

+ very quiet, good range of programmes.

- standard programme time at almost 2hours is very long and quick wash is 1/2 hour - nothing in between. Depth of machine was 3cm deeper than advertised which means it sticks out from under the units.

- No 30C wash cycle
No indicator of remaining time on cycle
Noisy spin (it is sited and levelled correctly)
Very expensive for what you get

+ Pleanty of different wash cycles to choose from

- Wash cycle times are so much longer than our previous machine - I wonder if this is as good for the environment as it says in the publicity literature!

+ It is very easy to use and the washing results are excellent

- Nil

+ wash cycles are much faster than old machine. The spin cycle also gets the clothes drier and the increased drum size is excellent. Energy efficiency of triple A should hopefully save on money. Overall so far it has been very good

+ Straight forward and easy to use. Overall very pleased with it.

- A bit noisy but use it during the night on a delay programme and it doesn't wake us up so it's not that bad!!

+ nice size door

+ Fast spin speed of 1600 means clothes require less time in tumble drier. Drum capacity of 6Kg allows for fewer washes.

- A bit noisy but not a big issue.

+ As good as my previous Zanussi which lasted over 8 years

- None

+ Very reliable, easy to use quite inexpensive considering all the features on offer.

+ Nice washing M/c, spin gets the clothes nice and dry.

- Long cycle times but the clothes are clean.

+ it is much less noisy than the previous wachine machine we had, even on the high spin cycle

- there is no spin option between 1600 and 900 rpm and it is not possible to choose a 30 degree cycle for cottons.
There is no option of combining the eco mode and quick cycle.

+ very easy to use and not noisy

- none really

+ easy and simple to use, good spin.

- would like to know how much longer there is to run on each cycle.

+ Zanussi is a name that can be trusted for quality products

- This particular model has no 'time' indicator to let you know when wash is nearly complete

+ very reliable, quiet, and spin speed is excellent.

- it could have been cheaper as there is a recession

+ The 6kg capacity and the 1600 spin speed are the attractive aspects of the machine. Best value for money at this capacity and spin speed.

- Whilst on paper it appears to give you lots of programme flexibility, in practice many permutations cannot be selected. For example, for a 30 minute wash, the maximum spin speed allowed is only 700 rpm - what's the point in that when the machine can do 1600 rpm? Why can't I select a time of programme and a spin speed that actually removes all the water from the clothes? I have to do a 30 minute wash, then reste the machine to spin at 1600 - two programmes required to process one load of washing. Not flexible enough.

+ Quiet, easy to use. Quick wash cycle

- None so far

+ Lots of programmes to choose from, very quiet machine spins very well..

- dor is a little bit noisy when closing and water has to be wiped out of the door rubber at the end of each cycle other than that very good washer

+ Lots of choice of programmes. Time delay feature. Large drum - took bed throw with ease and still spun very quietly.

- none as yet but only had 2 weeks.

+ value for money - all round good machine

- several of the programmes run for far too long

+ ease of setting cycles

- none

+ Easy to operate and good results

- None so far

+ Easiest washing machine ever - perfect for the elderly.
Great fast spin - clothes are left almost dry!

- No visual clock to show cycle time remaning.
Fast spin is noisy... but this was expected.

+ all good points cant fault the washer

- no bad points

+ great price, large drum, reliable

- longer cycle for washing than most others.

+ packed with features, economical

- none

+ really good machine, washes on a quick wash within 30 mins, and the 1600 spin leaves the clothes not very wet at all so takes no time at all to dry. I am so sad that I now love washing as I know it is not going to be lay around the house for days. The spin is not too noisy either but does sound like an aircraft but miles quieter than my old machine.

- Don't know where the machine cycle is whilst it is doing the wash, may be something for Zanussi to think about for the future, but not that much of a bad point is it!

+ Very good machine, plenty of features, control over spin speed, energy efficient, easy to install.

- None really.

+ drum size, choice of programmes, 1600 spin spped

- Noisier than my old Bosch machine

+ Easy to use and plenty of functions

- Noisier on Spin Cycle than I expected

+ I do find it pretty easy to use.

- Does not have time to end of cycle display.

+ Fast spin speed, energy efficiency, price

- Wast hose short so had to fit an extension. (Previous Zanussi machine was OK)

+ Typical Zanusi quality

- Noise

+ varied progs

- doesn't dry that well

+ It has a multitude of washing features that are very easy to use and efficient

- It's a bit noisy during the spin cycle

+ silent, looks are great,

- can't select a lower cycle time or don't come to know where it is actually when it is in the cycle....

+ Easy to use, eco features, night wash option.

- Length of some cycles, no 50c cotton cycle + no way of tracking progress of wash.

+ Very well designed to be efficient, with good range of options but not too complex

- Booklet could be clearer when getting used to using it.

+ energy efficiency and noise

- controls a little fiddlely
