Howard, Kettering

+ Compared to my old washing machine this one is outstanding.It is easy to use,it does what I want and I have found no faults.

- The programme wording around the selection dial is difficult to read.It would be a great improvement if the programme selected apeared next to the illuminated time.

stacy , bedworth , “stacy lockley bedworth”

+ build quality, spin speed and water extraction are all good, child lock prevents program interuptions, washes clothes well even with short mini 30' wash, dryer performs well (dryer has auto shut off when clothes are dry which means you dont have to mess about). beeps when finished to alert program finished(this can easily be switched off by pressing two buttons). noise levels are good on all spin speeds.

- No delay start timer.(not really a bad point when you consider how much it costs)
don't push the machine front the front unless you push it from the very outer edge, the front metal casing around the door dents easiliy!
dryer takes 10 mins to heat up-all washer dryers have this problem!
dryer leaveves clothes creased
(alot of my negatives are found on all washer dryers-people buy washer dryers thinking they will be as good as seperates- none of them are!
dont put too much drying in -it won;t crease then!
dont keep checking if its dry-put it on longer and let the auto shut off tell you-its quicker!
don't buy cheap powder then expect a machine to work miracles.
Read the instructions! to many people put negatives about products because they have not read instructions.

- The actual, complete, correct dimensions of the washing machine were not given. The front curved outwards and also the door of the washing machine added several inches. It jutted out. Therefore there was difficulty in fitting it into the space which was irritating.

Kath, Holmfirth

+ Nice washer/dryer - lots of programmes. It's very easy to use (even my husband can use it to wash his own gym kit!). It turns itself off after a while which is useful as I used to forget on my old washer and it drove my husband mad. Rinses well - no powder appearing on dark clothes.

- Long cycle times - unless you opt for the super quick 30 min wash which doesn't spin as well. Fairly noisy, but kept in utility so not really a problem. Dryer needs longer time than my old Hotpoint, but gets there eventually.

+ Great being able to see how long a programme is. Good range of programmes, a doddle to use and it's really quiet. Mini 30 degree programme only takes half an hour. Great results. Tumble dryer dries well - much better than my last washer dryer.

- The 40 eco programme takes 2hrs 20mins, so it could take nearly all day to do a couple of loads using this programme!

+ The clothes are beautifully clean and there is a programme to suit all materials and even a one for hand washing. I love the fact that it is so quiet and I can put on a load to wash and dry. There is a quick wash for times when you may want to hurry.

- It has taken me about 3 weeks to learn about making sure that the synthetics are on the right setting and to be careful of not over drying them as there is massive creasing.

Programmes - why is it so hard to get a machine that does a standard cycle also at 50 and 30 degrees? To do this it has to be a 'delicate' or mini wash.
