The w/machine is very quiet and washes well. However the 1000 spin speed is not as effective as in my previous machine which only had the one speed of 1000, hence the 4 star rating. This machine has other spin speed options of 1200 & 1400 but you cannot opt for them on certain washes. Clothes are quite creased on higher spin speeds but that might be my fault as I mostly use the Mix wash but haven't yet used the steam option, so nothing deducted for this.

Seems to wash clothes OK as you would expect and as others have mentioned, machine is very quiet in operation. The "time till finish" display is a guide only as it sometimes takes longer than the initial time displayed at start of the wash. The door is darker than the pictures suggest.

Great washer, nice and quiet! Saves the energy bill as well!

Much bigger capacity than previous machine, very quiet and smooth running and looks good too

Smart looking and simple to use. Very silent in operation.

Very pleased with this washing machine so far. Very quiet when running, good laundry capacity, easy to use controls. I like the fact it switches itself off when the cycle is finished.

Excellent washing machine and super quiet.

Only used a couple of cycles. Would like to select higher spin speed but that only comes with higher temperature wash.
