    Product Overview

    Keep your favourite clothes in tip-top condition with this washing machine from Hoover. This model is ideal for medium-sized households, as it has a spacious 8kg drum. It also comes with a special ActiveCare setting, which perfectly combines water and detergent to remove stubborn stains. So, next time your kids come home covered in grass marks, you can tut disapprovingly whilst secretly knowing they’ll come out in the wash. The Hygiene+ cycle is fantastic at removing bacteria and allergens too, giving you some much-needed relief from the headache that is hay fever. And because the Eco-Power motor is really quiet, it won’t make a racket when your toddler’s in bed.

    Brilliant machine

    5/5
    What a wonderful machine. It is so quiet I don’t really hear it and my kitchen is open plan! There are cycles to suit every wash - and it washes and spins beautifully
    Susan Marchant

    Very cost effective.

    4/5
    Took a little time to work out the control system but very cost effective. Being a 8 kg wash has reduced how many washes I do on a weekly basis which helps cut costs.
    Ann

    Great machine

    5/5
    This is a fabulous washing machine …very quiet even at the highest spin speed….and an excellent wash even on the quick wash…I would highly recommend it
    Mrs W Henderson

    Good quiet machine

    5/5
    So far I find it quiet, a good range of programs and I can take advantage of low temperatures for economy too. What is there not to like.
    ANorfolk

    Sufficient

    4/5
    I only gave four stars because the compartment for washing powder and conditioner is too small and doesn’t slide out far enough to add washing powder. Other than that this is an extremely good washing machine.

    My new washing machine is great.

    • Connection
      Price
      £30

      We want you to get up and running straight away with your new appliance, which is why our expert team will connect your new item to your water pipes and make sure everything is working properly. Connecting it yourself? Make sure you remove the transit bolts. These will make a loud rattling sound if they’re left in place when you run a cycle. 

    • Remove & Recycle
      AO member price
      Free
      Regular price
      £25

      If you’ve bought a new appliance but you don’t want us to connect it for you, all you’ll need to do is disconnect your old one and empty it, ready for us to pick up.

      If you haven’t bought a new appliance, we can still collect your old one and take it away for recycling. Our experts will recycle it safely and responsibly in our state-of-the-art facility.

      The cost of our Remove & Recycle service goes towards safely transporting the product to our recycling plant. Under the WEEE regulations, recycling costs are primarily covered by the product manufacturer.

      Also, while we’re picking up your appliance, if you’ve got any smaller kitchen electricals that need recycling – such as kettles, toasters or blenders – we’ll happily take those away too at no extra charge. Just pass them to your driver when we’re picking up your larger appliance.

    • Disconnection
      Price
      £10

      We’ll disconnect your old freestanding appliance when we deliver your new one

      • This includes the tricky job of disconnecting it from your water pipes

      Make delivery even easier by selecting all three connection and disconnection services in the basket. In one trip we can:

      • Disconnect and recycle your old appliance
      • Safely install your new one

      Just a quick note: if you’re buying a freestanding appliance to replace an old integrated one, we won’t be able to disconnect it

    • Unpack

      Appliances come with quite a bit of bulky packaging. We’ll unpack your item, let you inspect it then take away all of the plastic wrap and foam packaging.
