The machine is very good once you have solved the mystery of the instruction booklet which is like a foreign language!
I bought this washer dryer based on the fact it can do quick wash cycles, and the availability at the time of purchase (there were other items I was interested in but they weren’t in stock).
After a few months of use, I am surprised by how good it has been. The wifi functions, which I didn’t really care about, are good in that you could theoretically set your machine to do a wash and dry cycle while you are in another city. Or more usefully, set it to run while you are in bed asleep.
The dryer cycle has a standard run time, but then once you put your clothes in it adjusts depending on the size of the load. Surprisingly, the wash cycle does this too. I put on a very small cotton cycle (dying a couple of items with fabric dye) and it adjusted from nearly four hours to 1.5 hours. This is great because it saves water, energy, and your time. I have been drying on low heat most of the time, and it doesn’t seem to take too long. Especially compared to hanging clothes on a horse.
Overall this machine has given better performance than I expected. I will say there are a couple of caveats. The instruction manual is not amazing, the app is useable but could be better, and the aftersales service from Candy is quite unpleasant, as they have hassled me a lot about buying an extended warranty even though I have buildings and contents insurance. BUT the machine itself is pretty good, and reasonably priced.
Touch screen sometimes when I press to start I have to press a few times for machine to work
Its easy to use quite and I love the 14 min wash for clothes that just need refreshing and not heavy soiled
Looks great, works beautifully, highly recommend!
There is a lot of competition for washing machines. This machine is VERY large, no noise, still a perfect size and fit the exact measurements of a very old machine I had. Great timing features 14 minutes wash which is great! Don’t let naysayers put you off. I absolutely love it. Not using touch screen yet as need to read manual, but t’s a washing machine – who needs a touch screen anyway!
Just one word: value for money. The best washing machine dryer it helps me so much and is not making noise as other machines
Very easy to use and low level of noise. It automatically measures how much time is required to dry the clothes
Reasonably priced, nice machine overall, very easy to use, though the “smart” app is not the best I’ve ever seen (several functions seem unfinished i.e. some of the the programmes display API code rather than description – back when I worked in programming, we would be expected to sort out that kind of basic problem in Alpha, no way we’d have allowed such errors to be live still years after realising to the wild!), but it’s actually pretty intuitive once you get past those little quibbles.
Oh, and the metal body is rather thin and flimsy – it dented in 3 places just from lightly pushing it into the gap! – and the “bottom” is just a piece of corrugated plastic you have to clip on.
But overall it suits my needs so relatively pleased with it.
There isn’t many drying cycles on the dial, but a lot more in app. Once you get your favourites added it’s really easy to use
Absolutely love this machine, will bring most fabrics back from the dead. Fimd the righr setting as the tumble dryer is pretty powerful
Highly recommend
For the money the value is great
Can not fault this machine
Fantastic
