It’s quiet when spinning. Is very efficient and effective and I love it so much I washed everything in the house. Including my big winter double duvet. I understand the controls which are labelled so even non technological people like me can understand them

Unfortunately the washing machine broke after 3 days. It’s very silent and easy to install but on the 3rd day when the program was about to end a top got caught in the rubber from the door and when I opened the door I realised the wire that was holding the rubber came off so there was nothing to hold the rubber. The rubber/rim is very soft as well is not hard like the other washing machine.
I loved how silent it was and it had a big drum, so unfortunately I had to return it.

I live with 5 gargantuan teenagers and have now nicknamed this washer, ^The Beast.^ In a tsunami of brilliance, it devoured my washing in less than half the time it took my old washer and I was pleasantly surprised to find that the 1400 spin is still effective even with a full cotton load.
The running cost is very efficient because the Beast uses exactly the water and programme time it needs by weighing the washing when it needs to. Very fancy but not just a gimmick – the Beast is saving me money. Boom!
I love the choice of programmes, and especially the, ^all in one^ option. I haven’t found a YouTube video that takes me through each exact programme, and I don’t have a degree in domestic engineering so have yet to figure every single option on my downloaded instruction manual.
But once I get to grips with the Cape Canaveral-esque control panel, I’m sure I’ll be even more impressed by my washer’s capabilities. For example – I have no clue what a steam function might even be for – but I’m pretty sure it doesn’t involve vegetables.
Similarly, I don’t know why I would need to connect it to my wi-fi, unless there is a secret ^Karaoke partner^ option that I don’t about know yet – but it’s going to be fun finding out…and I usually HATE washing!
At first blush, this washing machine seems like it’s going to be dependable, good value for money and highly useful- unlike my ex-husband!

Bought this to replace an old 8kg machine that had seen better days. The additional 2kg (10kg) capacity is just the right balance to ensure maximum efficiency by ensuring full loads most of the time and also capable of the odd double duvet wash. The first thing I noticed though was how silent the wash is and even a 1600 spin whilst audible was not obtrusive.
Some, have found the HoN app difficult, however simply following instructions, I found it simple to get up and running (and of course you don’t have to use the app at all). So far I only have 1 issue with the app that for most probably wont be relevant. Only one account can be associated with a device (in this case w/machine) Having a couple of lodgers for them to get the benefits of the app we all ended up sharing a single login. – not a deal breaker by any means. What the app does give you is 63 programmes (each of which can be modified) There is even a setting for your wet suits, and two dedicated to face masks!
There are tons of features many I will probably never use along with several that I will simply not be particularly aware of but benefit all the same, such as it weighing the load and adjusting the water and cycle time to maximise efficiency.One of the best features I love is the notification that the cycle is done as well as the ability to check using your smart phone how much time is remaining. Perhaps on a more mundane but even more beneficial are a number of cycles that enable mixed loads with no fear of ending up with a homogenius load of grey-pink clothing because I forgot or more likely couldn’t be bothered so separate out coloureds, darks and whites etc.
With so many features (particularly when tied in with the app) washing day has become quite exciting – Ok yes I am perhaps the stereotypical male – loving the gadgets, but even my female lodger loves the new machine. Now I just need to get my self a wet suit so I can try that cycle out

Ease of use.Energy efficiency.style.

This washing machine is great for getting through the mounds of washing. Many options. I haven’t tried the wifi yet but the dials are straightforward. My only issue was delivery, I couldn’t get it delivered to my home or any neighbours so had to collect from my sisters house. It was much later than originally agreed. Howevert I’m so happy with the washing machine that I really don’t care, great value and great product.
by Daisybelle
does everything and more
ideal if you are a techie as it has a WiFi function so you can programme the machine (as long as it is loaded with clothes, detergent and softener) wherever you are.
I have a very tech house and everything is connected via Alexa and this is just another gadget to add to the network.
It’s big enough to wash superking duvets and larger loads, very quiet and energy efficient. Items come out much drier than they did in my old machine.
Just love this machine

Great machine only have one issue , when the water is going in or stopping the valve that allows this to happen is quite noisy not sure if this is a fault or normal but defeats the quiet cycle If putting on through the night
