Advantages: Small design for smaller kitchens, cheap and cheerful

Disadvantages: Small drum size, no display, long washing time on standard cycles

I have had this washing machine for about a month now and I am so pleased with it! It is small and compact, and perfect for a household of one. It has several different washing cycles on it, most of which are not necessary for me; I generally use the 30 min 30 degree wash, but have also tried out the energy saving 40 degree wash. Both washes clean extremely well, but the latter takes almost three hours! Most of the standard washes take around two hours, which is longer than some others, but given that the 30 min wash does me fine, this doesn't bother me. It does have a small drum size than most other washing machines, but again, if you are a singleton like me, it doesn't matter! it also doesn't have the facility to show you where it is in the wash cycle, which is a bit of a pain if you are doing one of the longer cycles, but otherwise I don't even notice. It isn't too noisy even on the spin cycle. All in all an economical machine - I paid a little extra to have it connected for me, but still came to £200 including this and delivery. Would recommend to any small household who doesn't need a washing machine to make the tea and take the dog for a walk!
