Super Quiet washing machine advice

Posts: 191 Forumite
Hi
So I'm looking for a quiet washing machine. I work from home post pandemic and the home is single level and open plan.
I believe anything around 60db noise is conversation level.
But, my washing ... i work from home and its fairly noisy. Its a beko WDIY854310 which has a noise rating of 47db washing and 73db spin. it's ok washing but spinning is like a jet taking off.
I need a new machine. Its 5 years old anyway so due for a change. I'm not interested in inspecting it or messing about. I'll just get a new one.
can anyone with a SUPER QUIET INTEGRATED washing machine please let me know what the make and model is so i can check the noise levels.
Thanks

Just because a machine is 5 years old, doesn't mean it needs replacing.ninjaef said:Hi

Agreed, but the OP stated they weren't interested in inspecting or messing around...waqasahmed said:

Personally I'd do that first, it would be much cheaper than a new machine.0 -
indeed, i looked at that list, and the specs of the machines therein. many were around 67-70db. Granted not loud but absolutely not super quiet either !Emmia said:

PLEASE does anyone have a specific recommendation, rather than answering a question i didn't ask (like how to investigate and repair)0

Can't quote technical data, but my Miele is MUCH quieter than my previous Bosch. Barely hums, even in spin mode.1

My Siemens machine is reasonably quiet as well, but the spec still says max 72DB and I checked a couple of Miele ones and they were also around 70, so from the specifications of the max DB, it is probably difficult for the OP to judge exactly how they perform in reality.Silvertabby said:Can't quote technical data, but my Miele is MUCH quieter than my previous Bosch.
