This Essentials C612WM17 washing machine has a low 6kg capacity and 1200rpm spin speed, so wouldn’t really suit a family or someone who regularly uses a tumble dryer, as the lower spin speed will mean clothes do not come out as dry (meaning more time in the tumble dryer and thus more energy consumed).
There is no time remaining countdown timer, but there are programme progress indicator lights to inform you what stage of the cycle your programme is currently in – Wash, Rinse, Spin or End . There is a child lock for the display, to stop any curious hands from messing with your settings.
If speed is your thing, then there is a low temperature 15 minute quick wash where you can wash a small load of lightly soiled clothing. Other special programmes include Mix, Shirts, Sport and Delicates.
The A++ energy rating is average these days for a washing machine, but not a big thing to take into consideration or one that should affect your purchase decision.
