Recommendations for washing machines

DCFC79

I'm needing a washing machine, does anyone have any recommendations ?

I'm thinking one with a quick wash option would be ideal.

Thanks

How about having a look at the comparison pages of Washing Machines | Appliances Direct and ao.com | Washing Machines | TVs | Laptops | Delivering Tomorrow.  There are plenty of other sites... but they may help with your decision-making.

Yes Ive already had a look at 2 of them, there's at least 3 websites I'm looking at, John Lewis, Ao.com and a local firm, I haven't had much of a look at Appliances direct.

Just looking for recommendations.

I'm wanting a decent brand but also don't want to pay through the nose, some Ive seen that look decent are between £300 and £400.

We've been quite impressed with our Zanussi ZA 71401. It's much better built that the Beko we had before it. It's an integrated appliance, so probably not exactly what your looking for, but there will be a non-integrated equivalent. It has a good quick wash function for the cotton and man-made programs, which reduces the wash time to 50-55 minutes. For clothes that have just been worn, these shorter programs seem to be fine. The drum seems quite small though, even though it is rated to wash 8Kg.

Cheapest AEG (John Lewis are AEG), Bosch or Siemens.

Current machine is Siemens with a 15 minute very quick wash, standard quick wash is an hour.

Thanks for that, Ive got Zanussi on my list of machines to look at.

Thanks for that, so AEG make W/Machines for JL, that's good to know.

I'm leaning towards Bosch, Zanussi , John Lewis and AEG.
