Score 9.0/10

+ Nice machine, lots of space in the drum for bigger loads, pretty quick too. Clothes come out smelling really fresh which is great, you can tell they have had a good wash. Quickwash is handy too. High energy efficiency rating which makes me feel warm about not killing the planet.

- Still too small to do a double duvet. The digital timer is great, but is not accurate - cycles can take less/more time than it actually says which is odd, but not that bothersome.

- Spein is not enough. It's the same spin speed as my old machine but leaves the clothes much wetter. I now do another spin on it's own after the wash has finished. Makes a big difference.

+ Very happy with the look and ease of use, one of the simplest most logical machines I have ever used.
Quick wash cycle time is short and effective.
Just hope it lasts longer than the indesit which managed a 'massive' 18 months....!

- The hot water only kicks in at 60 degrees or over, not sure if thats the same in all machines though.
The machine is quite deep.
No real problems though, just minor details

+ This machine has a massive drum at 7kg and several different wash cycles including wool, quick wash and hand wash. There is a timer to indicate how long the wash will take and a child lock to stop any toddlers from changing your wash settings. A little tune plays when your load is done and it looks very modern in silver too.

- Its abit noisy if its not level, and tyring to level it with the feet is some fete in itself as the machine is very heavy!

Leona , Fife

Score 10.0/10

+ Quiet machine which does a great job of washing clothes - we have a 1 year old son so you can imagine the stains it has to get out!! Many cycles to choose from including the temperature you want and spin speed. There is a useful countdown so you know how long there is left and it plays a tune to let you know it's finished. It also automatically switches itself off when finished, saving power. Great machine, would recommend it to anyone.

- Cycles are quite long - 2 hours for a normal wash. Even a quick wash is over 30 minutes. However, these bad points don't detract from the quality of the machine.
