I particularly like the display which shows how long the programmes is.

Lots of wash options, simple to use
Boil wash at 95*c for whites takes nearly 3 hours to complete.

One of the main features I bought it for was the time delay option which is fantastic.... Also the cycle times are great with the added feature of being able to see exactly how long the cycle has left to go.
The noise when the machine is spinning.... It is very loud

1. Its a Hotpoint! My last 2 Hotpoint machines have lasted 10 and 14 years with minimal repairs. 2. Very little moisture left in clothing at the end of a standard wash. 3. Quiet. Its in my dining kitchen so this is noticeable.
The wash cycles take longer than I expected but results are good.

Looks really good and washes well. Not too noisy and indicates how long is left on the cycle
The cycle times seem to be quite long

The programme delay timer , The colour, Size of Drum, Cold Water fill so only have to plumb in one supply,
Some of the programmes seen a little long, The noise is quite loud on the high spin speed ( 1400 RPM ) Door stays locked at end of cylce for two minutes ,,, WHY ??????????????????????????????? crazy timer ??

I love the choice of two fast cycle washes at different temperatures and also that you can stop and drain the machine if required. I like the digital screen and that it shows you the time of wash and time remaining.
It's a bit noisy as most washing machines seem to be.

Very simple to use, uncomplicated controls, good instructions. Very quiet, no vibration. Good spin removes most water. Cleans well.

Looks good, great features like the time delay & rinse hold.
Can be a bit noisy on the spin & the cycle times are a tad long.

simple to use
curved top on front facia makes fit under worksurface look a little odd

Heather, Glasgow
this is a great machine. It is easy to use the controls are understandable. it tells you how long it will take and how long to go mid cycle. it is practically silent and the spin cycle is excellent
it doesn't iron the clothes after washing them.

Can't think of any bad points that would be worthy of a mention.

Its simple to use with no scientific jargon. Whats more it washes beautifully and you can see with the display how much longer the wash will take and when it ends it states this. Best one I have had in years.

Jacqueline, Northampton
You can chose what temperature and cycle to suit either yourself or the clothes that are being washed and so far I have been extremely pleased with the results. Its easy to use, quiet and totally manageable.
None so far

quiet, stylish, time left indicator and delay start functions are really useful extras. large drum swallows big loads easily. Wash performance is better than previous hotpoint model we had and removes stains that we thought would never come out..
possible use of electricity when not in use due to on/off button being of a soft type.

It is a lot quieter than I am used to. On each cycle you can change the temperature and spin speed, which is very good.
You can't put an extra rinse cycle on.

The 7kg drum makes a real difference. Easy to use, like the digital display, especially when it indicates how long you have left on a wash cycle. Does the job!
A bit noisy when spinning, but not a problem really.

With a family of 6 the washing machine is always on. With the larger drum this can save on the amount of usage. Much quieter than my old machine and a faster spin. Good alround part of the family!!!!
Would really have preferred a white one to match but the price was too good to miss.

Catherine, Wick, “Three children ”
Various programmes and the machine tells you how long the cycle has to go which interested me in the machine.
On my previous machine you could do a short and fast spin which i really miss. The 30 degree quick wash does not really clean my clothes very well compared to my last machine which was also a hotpoint, many items have to be rewashed before hanging on the washing line. Seems this is a poorer machine than my old one.
16 Jun 2008
Laura, Ballymena
Obviously millions better than my last one, holds big loads, all types of washes available, seeing how long left of the cycle etc.
I would say some of the washes take over 2 hours which is quite long when you have loads to get through

Very good load capacity. Quiet, smooth operation. Flexible programmes with ability to take manual control. Efficient use of little water for wash cycle. Smart appearance.
Still prefer two-hose fill, especially as we now have solar water heating!

Aaron, Wimborne
Good machine that has the functions of most every other machine but with the ability of being able to reduce temperature whilst keeping to same washing programme and reducing spin speeds, shows time of cycle and remaining time (it also adjusts timings to load weight) and also has a hand wash function. The machine uses only a minimal amount of water and only takes in cold water. The machine itself is stylish and the instruction book is easy to read without too much waffle.
Although drum size is reasonable it will not accommodate a single duvet. Machine is quite noisy but in my experience all washing machines are noisy.

Easy to use. Tells you how much time is left until cycle finished so you know if to hang around and get your washing out before you go out.

Barry, St Columb Major
Easy to Operate. Does what it says on the programme indicator. Informative digital displays. Large door means easy load/unlaod. 1400 spin Speed leaves clothes acceptably 'damp' - shorter drying time. Colour is very attractive.
Noisy final spin speed - but not for too long.
