Tge wash cycles so far seem to work really well, and the drying function worked brilliantly for a mixed load. It's not louder than any similar washer dryers we've had before. The only reason for the 4 star is that the cycles are VERY long, 3+hrs for cottons, etc. There is a fast programme but now way to actually significantly shorten the other programmes. Overall still works great, but makes it a bit harder to manage multiple loads in one day.

Drying performance is slow, but for the price I wouldn't have expected best-in-class here. Overall it's effective, quiet and looks stylish.

Great price with a high spec, had to call tech support they were brilliant did a video link to show us what to do

Easy to operate, good big wash load - definitely recommend this machine.

I have never had a washer dryer before, and unfortunately I am very disappointed. Like other reviewers I have found the was cycles take far too long. Only used the dryer once and found it very poor, items still wet. My previous separate appliances let me adjust times, temp and spin on many washes, this one doesn’t. As for the dryer, I wish I had just bought a washing machine and stuck to drying on radiator when not able to dry outside.

Great once you decypher the instructions. Tip Take photos of instruction and the controle panal and ask any question of any ai and it will answer.

I did a lot of research in my quest to replace a very old washer-dryer and finally settled on this Hotpoint model which seemed to tick all the boxes without being in the higher price brackets. One of my criteria was that it not be too noisy when spinning because we are in a flat with downstairs neigbours. The machine is working very well and fulfils my quest. I didn't go as far as awarding 5 stars simply because we haven't used it for long yet, but it's heading that way. Could I make it 4.5?
