Spec me a washing machine?

[Dominic-Toretto]

Hi, looking for a washing machine. Can not say I know much about them other than the basic specs like drum size / spin speed. Ideally 9kg weight capacity plus?

Budget up to £400, any reccomendations for a noob?

Thanks

Perfectly happy with my Beko, way under £300 too.

well i got a hotpoint ,luckily not on the burst into flames list maybe have a look at john lewis website for the extra free warranty and price match

should be able to get a samsung 9kg
for £399 really cant fault
my samsung machine at all

Yeah my beko 8kg is good, dead quiet easy to use.think wr862441

My Samsung has
Direct drive
Ie no belt to worry about
Scheduled on/timer
Adjust/tailor/alter any program to suit your
Needs
A++ energy rating
Smart phone fault diagnosis
Had a longer warranty than most
1 year warranty on some I looked at
Which Is pretty poor in my opinion
Just way better than
The Indesit it replaced

I particularly like the intelligent hot fill and programable options that are available.

Maybe there is now finally a machine that is actually as good as the Hoover Keymatic!

I ended up spending £600 on a 9kg direct drive LG. Slightly over budget but it is a really nice machine, and the 14 minute quick wash function is great. I can give you a model number if you like?

Slightly over your budget but I'd go Bosch. I spent ages deciding what brand to go for and they seemed to get consistently good reviews. I'd go for the serie 6 to get the 9Kg drum.

All I would say is compared to my previous machine these things make practically no noise at all even at full spin.

LG direct drive. Was £550 at Costco and touch wood is still going after 4 years without a problem. The motor has a 10 year warranty.

Beko machines are decent. I was rather dubious at first but we have had our's for a few years now and it's been faultless. Currys have a couple of decent offers on Beko 9kg and 10kg washing machines at the moment for £239 and the same one in anthracite. A+++ for energy and 1400rpm spin.

Our expensive LG direct drive gave up the ghost last week, bought a Hotpoint from JL for under £300 which seems just as good tbh.
