+ reasonably priced, good spin and a quick 30 minute wash, A rated.

- quite loud and some programmes very long, unable to change programmes by altering spin speed, temperature, load size and extra rinse. however those fetures would make it more expensive.

Tom, Barry , “27 Male Fulltime Professional”

+ Very easy to install and to use. A very quiet machine and very good value for the money. I'm well impressed.

- Some of the cycle programs take ages to finish, but they save electricitry and water at the same time, so I can't complain really.

STEVE, NOTTINGHAM

+ DECENT CAPACITY ... DECENT CLEAN ... NOT TOO NOISY .(ABOUT THE SAME AS THE LAST TWO I'VE HAD)
FOR THE PRICE, IT IS A BLINDING WASHER THOUGH... AM PLEASED WE BOUGHT IT.

- NORMAL 40 DEGREE WASH TAKES ABOUT 3 HOURS TO RUN THROUGH, THE 30 DEGREE IS MUCH SHORTER AND DOES AN EQUALLY GOOD WASH.

- The cycles seem to take a long time, possible because it is only cold water fill which was not obvious at time of purchase.

- door is harder to close than i would expect.. sometimes i have to 'slam' it. door opens on a different side to any other washing machine that i have had.would be nice to be able to see where the cycle is... maybe i should have gone for a more expensive model?

+ Very quiet, easy to use.

- Wash programmes are much too long. The Class A wash takes 3 hours so you have to either wash the night before and hope the weather is OK to hang it out, or do the wash on the day and loose half a day's drying time. The quick wash does not wash sweaty gear as an alternative wash to the 3 hours.

+ Easy to use. Good Drum Size. Has a really good 30 min cycle, which is great when you do many loads per week. Is very quiet and for a basic machine I haven't had any issues with it.

- The other cycles are very long around 2 hours plus. But you can always stop cycle after an hour and do a rinse and spin.

Product Features

Construction	Freestanding
Built-in machines have a cabinet door attached to the front of them so that they look like the rest of your kitchen. Freestanding machines can be seen and the machine can be placed in any position in your kitchen.
Drum size (kg)	6
Energy Efficiency	A
The more efficient the product, the less energy it needs and the more you get for your money. ‘A’ rated products are the most efficient and ‘G’ rated products are the least efficient. The most efficient products can now be identified by new ‘A’ and ‘A*’ ratings.
Type of Loading	Front Loading
This refers to where you can load the washing into the machine. Front loading is when the door is on the front of the machine and top loading is when you put washing in through an opening at the top of the machine. When purchasing a top loading machine, make sure you have enough room to open the hatch (top loading machines cannot be placed under a worktop). When looking for front loading machines, take note of which way the door opens so that you can make sure you have enough room to take washing in and out of the machine.
Number of Programmes	16
The number of different programmes available on this machine that you can choose from
Colour	Multi
The main colour of the product.
Height in cm	85
The distance from the very top of the product to the very bottom.
Width in cm	60
Depth in cm	54

Energy Savings Trust Feature	No
A Yes means this this product has been rated as being energy-efficient by the Energy Savings Trust. Good for the environment and good for your electricity bill!
Spin Efficiency	A
The more efficient the spin, the more water will be extracted from your washing which means it will need less time in the dryer or less time on the line. ‘A’ rated products are the most efficient and ‘G’ rated products the least efficient.
Wash Efficiency	A
This rating refers to how well a machine cleans during a cycle. ‘A’ rated products are the most efficient and ‘G’ rated products the least efficient.
Energy Consumption in kWh (60° C)	.19
Display of Remaining Time	No
Tells you how long there is left until the end of the cycle.
Type of Dryer	Tumble
Vented dryers have a hose which transfers the waste, damp air out of the machine and through a hole in the wall or a window to the outside. They are less expensive than condenser machines but the hose means they need to be placed by an outside wall. Condenser machines collect the excess water within the machine which can then be emptied after use. They therefore do not need a hose and can be placed anywhere in the house.
Start Delay Option	No
Enables you to delay the start of the cycle. This is useful if you want to set the machine to go on during the night so that you can take advantage of cheaper electricity rates.
Child-Lock	Yes
A mechanism that makes it difficult for children to open the machine during operation.
Half-Load	Yes
When washing only a few items, the half-load feature uses less water which will save time, energy and of course water.
Release Date	8 Oct 2008
The date the product was originally made available for purchase.
