Washing machine

[AmritR212]

Okay so need your advice. Need a new washing machine...how hard is it to pick a decent one!! But tell me a 4 hour wash time??? Is that even allowed. I have three kids 2 teenage boys and a 4 yr old daughter.
It's the Eco add wash so ticks all right boxes - but 4 hours?!?
Anyone else have one?

You can always use the quick wash button. Our 40c cotton is 3hr 40m

Hi. Yes all the machines have a quick wash option (15mins) but only for loads 2kg and under.
On the laptop again X

We had a Beko - large capacity, lots of programmes and flexibility, low energy consumption. We sold it when we moved as there was already machine here. It was better than the more expensive one we've inherited.

Beko offer a "daily quick" cycle which will wash a full load in under an hour. Bosch also do something similar with their "speed perfect" setting. Those are the only 2 that offer that, all others have quick washes that are only suitable for half loads.

My Miele takes about 90 minutes for a full wash

I have a Bosch (8kg) with speed perfect button as rabbit mentions. Full load on easy care prog takes about an hour

and 10 mins.
