My only issue with this was manoeuvring into position, it's really heavy at 79kg. Other than that, it's great! Fast wash options and a good eco wash, the best at the time of writing, I think. The spin only really gets things dry at higher rpm: 1200 and 1400. Haven't used the Bluetooth functionality, but it suggests programs suited to garments added to a wash.

Cleans clothes well. The water coming from the top seems like a very good invention. Love the light in the drum. Only issue I’m finding is that some programs seem to double or triple in time…still trying to work that out….

Absolutely great washing machine, foes a full wash in 28 minutes, and it's steam function is great, I'm finding for shirts/trousers I can take them out after the was, hang them on coat hangers and they ate virtually crease free.

Not very good sometimes won’t spin.

Fast, quiet and effective. I really like that I can do a fast wash at 30 degrees but change the spin to the maximum 1400 rpm. Delivered promptly by friendly and helpful AO team.

So far my 40c eco cycle has always been 2hr40, so quicker than the 3hr58 tag/manual. It seems the machine is auto adjusting for load size which is a function I like but hadn't thought this model had when I was shopping. Worth noting the advertised low water consumption of 38L is for 5kg load on Eco. 10kg on Eco is 59L. I'm using the child lock just because the programme dial protrudes from the machine, is easy to nudge by mistake, which stops the cycle if mid-way and then you need to resume from very beginning. Installing required me to call AO as manual described fitting cover A, B & cap. I only had A. AO connected me to Beko in a three way call and was told B&cap no longer required but manual not yet had an update. Note on the packaging removal and Installation of cover A: very difficult to do alone as requires tilting the machine which is heavy. Connecting water and waste was easy part. Be sure to read the section about the detergent tray, as you adjust one component depending on liquid or powder. The 1400 spin is notably better than my old 1200. Haven't used the Home Whiz or downloadable functions yet. Have had product for a week, havn't regretted my purchase.

On the whole I'm happy with the machine. The spin even at 1200 is very good.I'm not entirely sure what the steam function does. There's no wool programme ( I use hand wash instead). It's reasonably quiet except for the spin (see below) and fits nicely under the counter. But what I'm struggling with is the spinning; it's very noisy and rattles the whole kitchen. And yet it's in the same place as my old machine. It's nice and solid on the floor. So one star off for that. The other star is removed for the app connectivity. I followed all the instructions and got the app to connect but I cannot use it as a remote. Now, I'm a geek so if I can't do it I don't think many could. And once out of bluetooth range it disconnects - whats the point of that?

Can't believe how good this washing machine is... my laundry seemed to be cleaner and my whites were amazing... looking forward to using this machine to it's full potential. Great value for the money and modern design.
