Heidi, Airdrie

+ its good in the fact it will work out if you have put a heavier load in it knows how long to wash the clothes for also the time delay is good because you can set it up at night time to go off first thing when the water price is cheaper

- The only slight thing is it is a tiny bit noisy when doing the spin.

Matt, Wolverhampton , “two adults one child”

+ Using cold water only, the machine has reduced our use of gas heated water by about 35%
The high spin cycle, has also reduced drying time for the washing, both on the line and in the tumble dryer.

- The only bad point would be the relativley small drum, compared to our previous Hoover Aquarius, which means 2-3 more washes per week

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.
