Advantages: Cleans well and lots of different options

Disadvantages: Noisey

I purchased this about 7 months ago to replace my previous washing machine and decided to get a washer dyer this time.
With regards to the drying, I've never owned a dryer before so don't know if this is common but it seems to leaves creases, which are really hard to get out, with anything I put in. I have a steam generator iron and this doesn't remove them.
For washing it is really good. It has clear instructions on the different cycles and displays you're choice in the LED panel and you can alter the spin and temperature on each cycle which is handy if you want to be environmentally friendly. You can also add selection such as mini load, time saver, child lock and reduced creases. Once you add all you're options and click start it displays the time it will take and counts down.
One negative on the washing front is the noise. I purchased this as its supposed to be a quieter machine however I have not found this is the case as it makes more noise than my previous 10 year old machine.

Summary: Good for washing not so keen on the dryer
