    Best dryer and quietest machine!

    5/5
    The only washing machine that I could fit into a cupboard, the door isn’t bulging out as most are these days. This is the second Haier I have had. It’s very quiet so it is great if you live in an Appartment. It has a brilliant dryer, the clothes dry quickly and don’t come out steaming hot!

    Impressed.

    5/5
    Very impressed with this washer-dryer. Only had it for a short time, but very happy so far. Never bought Haier product before, but if this is indicative of their products, then would not hesitate to purchase another.

    Good at washing, bad at drying

    2/5
    Good washing machine, not too power-hungry and with good settings. Severely let down by the drying function - I've had this machine for less than 2 years and I've had to have engineers in (thankfully covered under warranty) twice now because the drying functionality stopped working. No explanation and I use machine cleaners regularly to remove hair and lime scale buildup, as recommended by the first engineer. Made no difference. Better off spending slightly more on a better quality machine that isn't breaking all the time

    Nice quiet washer, but I still use the launderette dryer!

    4/5
    First, let's be clear that the '8 kg' claim for the load limit is seriously misleading, and should be stating about 5.5 kg for a normal mixed load. I know this because I had my doubts about that claim and filled the machine with my regular 3-weekly mixed load, right to the point that there was only just space for the width of a hand to fit on top of the load, and then took it all out and weighed it. It was 5.5kg. -- and yes, I did check the luggage scales I used, with 6x1kg packs of dried foods, and it indicated 6kg correctly. I guess that 8kg may indeed be the *theoretical* weight limit for sensible operation, but it's really bad practice to give prospective purchasers the idea that they could fit an 8kg load in the machine, for that would be completely impossible for any sort of normal mixed load. Apart from that, yes, this is excellent for me as my first-ever washing machine (and so quiet), but, in view of the horrendous drying function I'd rather have saved money by buying a washer-only. As a dryer, I expect it's no worse than others that are non-vented and use condensation to achieve the drying, but I was appalled at the long drying time and severe creasing of everything -- and the creases were very persistent and made folding extremely difficult, and I certainly wasn't going to go ironing all that! Also, even on the supposedly bone-dry setting (for putting away immediately), my stuff was still noticeably damp and so still needed hanging up, and that was after I think close to 2 hours of 'drying'. I also realized that the condensation drying uses so much electricity and water, that as long as I have a local launderette it made by far the best sense to take the stuff that needed machine drying to the launderette for that. Should the economic situation cause the local launderette facility to close down, okay, I'd just have use dryer balls in the Haier, in the hope that they'd improve its drying efficiency a bit, but for now my washing sessions finish with a launderette visit!

    Good choice of machine

    5/5
    Fast, good spin action, small in size, Very quiet, only down side is that the choice at end of a cycle is either no sound at all, or it plays Claire de lune for an annoying long length of time!!

    Great machine, providing it lasts long it’s worth it

    5/5
    Had this machine for about a month now and it’s the perfect Washer Dryer. I’m impressed with the load size and its shallow depth. I needed a slim machine to fit in a tight cupboard space in my kitchen. It’s a little on the pricey side but the way it keeps itself clean I’m ok with it. I’ve been Keeping an eye on my smart meter display and It isn’t as power hungry as I thought, but only time will tell. Also the i-Refresh function puts this machine in a league of its own. Throw a couple garments in there and by time you’ve had a shower, they’re ready to wear. Plus you can hardly wear it working, no more turning the TV volume up and subtitles.
