+ Tells you the timing of each wash program, you can adjust temperature of wash & spin speed also delay starttime & has other cool features like playing a little tune when program is finished. Has quick 30 minute program.

- Some programs take hours because of cold water fill only.

Score 7.0/10

+ 1. Large load. 2. Option to customise favourite setting.

- 1. Appearance a bit clunky. 2. Large control knob should be all white and not stick out so much. 3.On/off switches on by accident by someone leaning on counter nearby. 4. Musical tones for starting and ending are intrusive noise. 5. No half program. 6. No crease program ineffective.

Anonymous verified purchaser , “I have a family”

Score 9.0/10

+ I really like the style of the washing machine in terms of apperance. It also plays a tune when it is finished which is both sweet and handy. It washes the clothes and spins them well. Also the soap dispencer draw removes easy for washing and prevent clogging or a build up of detergent residue, this is handy as a lot of washers I've had it has been hard to remove them. It has a fantastic 8kg drum size and overall I feel it is very good value for money.

- It would be better if I could select a 50 degree wash cycle and if some of the cycles like hot cottons could be slightly shorter.

Jane, Sale , “Mum of 2 children”

Score 9.0/10

+ The child proof lock is excellent - especially useful when our youngest toddler starts pressing buttons once a cycle has started! I like the tune it plays at the end of a cycle - even my husband hears it and so can't pretend anymore he doesn't know the washing machine has finished its cycle - he is now hanging out the wet washing a lot more! I also like the time save button - this is useful to use when clothes aren't particularly dirty and need a shorter cycle.

+ This washer is extremely quiet.
I have only used the quick wash setting so far, but I like how you can change the temperature and spin cycle.
It sings a little tune to tell you the cycle has finished, then switches off automatically.
The door opens really wide, and it has a large drum capacity.
Had a washer dryer previously and don't miss it at all, the spin cycle is so good the clothes are left quite dry anyway, quickening the overall drying time.

- Other programmes seem too long so haven't used them yet.
Cant wash at more than 40 degrees on quick wash.
There is a lot of washing powder residue that collects in the rubber door seal so have to wipe it after every wash. It doesnt do the ironing!

Score 8.0/10

+ Easy to customise the cycles. Your most used cycle becomes favourite saving pushing extra buttons. Cute little tune played when it is finished so there is no going back and forth to see whether it is finished.

- Not all cycles will let you spin at 1200 - so you have to go back and put it onto spin again at the higher spin speed.

Score 9.0/10

+ Very user friendly & good value. Energy efficient with easy access to the filter which made this a great choice. The drum size is possibly too big for me, but as the machine only takes on enough water for the load inside it's perfect!

- I didn't realise it played a tune when the programme has finished, which is a bit off-putting..

Score 10.0/10

+ Very easy to use, even my husband can use it! I like the child lock so avoids having everything boil washed when you only wanted a quick rinse. Very quiet, nice big drum, nice display and plays a little tune when it's done. I hate washing every day so the big drum means it's on less and therefore saving me money.

- Only thing I can think of and this is really picky...if you put your washing basket in front of it to load it up, you can't open the door - it's too low. Guess I'll just get a smaller basket..
