Washing machine with decent spin

caramacgirl

I am looking for a new washing machine with a good spin, any good deals out there?

Almost every modern w/m has a more than adequate spin speed these days, usually 1200rpm or higher. What is your budget, because you get what you pay for, and w/m's can be anything from £150 to nearly £1K?

Miele with a 1600rpm spin.

nearly.... NEARLY £1k?

Paid £1599 for my Miele and it wasn't the most expensive!

I bought a Whirlpool washing machine last year from Appliances online. It has variable spin speeds up to 1400 RPM. It has a 9KG drum which I love. I can't recommend this machine enough.

There's 15.15 % on Topcasback at the moment but tha ends today. I think I got 10% back.

It's this model: http://ao.com/product/WWDC9440-Whirlpool-6th-Sense-Washing-Machine-White-29767.aspx?&WT.z_PT=MDA&WT.z_MT=Search&WT.z_RTM=Google%20PPC&WT.z_DT=t&WT.z_KT=Product%20Code&WT.z_CN=Codes%20-%20Washing%20Machines%20-%20API&WT.z_PC=WWDC9440_WH&WT.z_AG=Whirlpool%20-%20WWDC9440_WH&WT.z_KW=Whirlpool%20WWDC9440&WT.z_MAT=Exact&WT.z_AT=Washing%20Machines&WT.srch=1&gclid=CIKc4si53cUCFafJtAodTTIAwA

Most washing machines only work on the highest spin on certain programmes.
My washer (Siemens) has a 1400 spin but the programme I use the most has a 1200 spin speed which I find perfectly adequate.

ao also have a £20 off voucher at the moment.

Can't recommend them highly enough as a company. Never heard a bad review about them.

Spin speeds are anyway largely a red herring these days. Once you get above about 1,200 rpm, the additional amount of water extracted for each increase in rpm is negligible. Spin speeds are now simply a marketing tool: gullible punters think that 'faster is better'.
