Washing machine energy ratings

danrv

Hi
I'm buying a new oven and washing machine to replace the old ones in my ex rental property.
Hoping to get both in one go from Euronics as there's a store locally.
Oven will be a Beko (EDC634W) and possibly the washing machine too.
Just wondering if there'll be much difference in energy usage between these two.
Beko is D rating and the Hotpoint B rating.
Any help appreciated.

If you go on line and look at energy rating you will see the best are at the A end and get worse at you move further away.
A+++ are the top end of energy efficient products. 
The Hotpoint B rating is the most energy efficient of the two you mention.
I would go to the library and look at the WHICH Reports which would give you other factors to consider. Reliability, how products compare to others and whether which recommends them. Other Websites would be a good idea to view. Also you can then compare prices, delivery and January Sales Deals etc.
When it comes to ovens you may wish to look at Air Fry Ovens which are more efficient than conventional ovens. It depends on the way you prefer to cook.

Assuming these are the new ratings, there is very little difference between B and D class tbh, obviously B is better but only very slightly, you are looking at B using only a few percent less energy.

I used to subscribe to Which. It was useful. Have seen another review of washing machines and the Beko 9kg version came out top as best all round for the money.

I like to cook from scratch so really need the versatility of a free standing oven. The kitchen layout is designed for one also.
A small airfryer would be useful though.

Not any more for most appliances, they recalibrated the scales in 2021 to be A-G rather than A+++ to D

The other problem is that the devices are scored on running a set programme 100 times which is great but what if you decide to use a different programme to the tested one? You cannot say for certain that the same positions would be held if the 100 runs was done on their hot cotton wash rather than the warm eco

Ok thanks.
Either will be more efficient I think than my current Beko EcoCare WMA10 W.

Have been looking into this a little having been to Euronics to look at the Beko oven.
This would be a straight replacement for my Creda double oven. 
An airfryer instead would need to be a fairly large type that would sit on the worktop, taking up a fair bit of space.
Would need an electric hob and possibly a grill too.
It maybe that with a new double oven and a small portable airfryer, the oven might end up just being used mostly for the hob and grill.
Effectively, a cabinet.

If you do not have an oven at all then you need a big airfryer, unless you are single and living off frozen stuff, chips etc.
As you say it would be a large type, and have to sit on the work surface, and not be that cheap.
A single oven and a smaller airfryer ( they are handy ) is a good mix + a microwave.
There are other threads extolling the virtues of combination oven/microwaves, as another alternative set up.

Yes, plus a seperate hob.
The kitchen/diner is designed for freestanding units and I think single ovens are built in type (higher level).
