Baljit, Barking

+ Great drum size, nice to look at, quiet, quick 14 min wash for football kits, great machine

- none, see how long it lasts without breakdown, like to see extra 4 year cover cheaper, the previous machine was Hoover lasted 4.5 years in total before the main drum bearing went.

Andrew, cambridge

+ great washing machine at a great price, the 8kg load size is reducing the amount of times we wash in a week.

+ Fast cycle (14 mins) actually gives a very clean wash. I use this for most washes now and am very happy with the results. Great drum size and very easy to use.

- 800 sin speed on most cycles leaves washing very damp, but a quick run through on spin cycle at 1200 afterwards solves the problem.

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.
