Advantages: Cheap, easy to use, great features

Disadvantages: Watch out for easy overfilling

I bought this washing machine from Tesco for £180 and am very pleased with it overall. Cheap and cheerful and has certainly been reliable. I used the 30 degrees or cold setting on much of my washing to save electricity (being very green where I can these days) and regardless of the detergent type I use and everything washing fantastically. The quick wash function is fantastic for smaller loads or for when you need something quickly (or if its not actually dirty but needs sprucing up).
You do need to be very careful with "over filling" as it doesnt spin the washing very well but my idea of overfilling and the machines obviously differs - its heavier items such a bath towels and jeans that it wont spin if too full.
The pause function come in handy (especially in this house as hubby always seems to start the washer when I'm in shower!!!) and the drawer etc is easily cleaned.

I would recommend this washing machine to all and it certainly ticks all our boxes for a family of three - reasonable price, easy to use, and with great features.

Summary: Good all rounder, perfect for our busy family
