It's an all round good machine which is easy to use.

Smart, lots of wash options and quiet

Main wash takes 3 hours

Basic model but does what you need. No messing or fuss.

Hasn't got a delay timer.

Perfect for space that I have in my kitchen

ease of use. 5kg load ideal for 1 person.

Cycles take a long time. There is a quick wash option though.

Cycle generated from dial which is a bit flimsy

Love it. Excellent value, quiet and cleans perfectly

No

Main reason I purchased this machine is that it fits perfectly into the available space (one of about three models in the entire universe). It's fairly quiet during its operation; even the spin. Most of all, it does get the clothes clean.

The machine is cold-fill only, so will cost a bit more to run in the long-run having to heat the water itself. The control panel is a bit old-school (dial) with no half-load option. There is no indication whatsoever of how far along the cycle we are...
