+ If this Beko lasts as long as our old one, with a young family, it will be worth every penny!!! So far so good, drum size is adequate enough, instructions are easy to follow overall good value for money.

- The only downside is the "Quick Wash" programme still takes around 45mins - hour!

+ Excellent product in all respects.

- It is so important that the two bolts that secure the drum for transport be removed before using the machine. Though that is in the manual, it should be more boldly stated. I nearly damaged the machine and the pipes on account of not first removing the bolts.

Score 9.0/10

+ This is a very compact washing machine which nicely fit in to the space we have, the wash cycles are a little longer that my previous machine but the results are good. We think it is quite when it runs but this may be because our old machine was very noisy & we rarely stay in the room with it running.

Not sure if this is a good or bad point but it does not require a hot water input as my previous two machines have.

- I really have not found a bad point, but if you like to be able to see where abouts it is in the running cycle you will be disappointed as there is no way to tell at a glance, sadly I use mine so often I can judge it by the noise it makes a a given time!
