We’ve now had this washing 3 weeks and we’re very impressed so far, with the washes that we’ve used especially the quick wash. Still trying to work out the settings for washer/dryer as the instruction book is not that clear to understand.
It is quite quiet when the machine is on and I like that you don’t have to wait for ever for the the door to unlock when it’s finished the cycle. The opening space to the machine itself is quite large which I do like, especially when you’ve got an armful of bedding to put in.
fantastic washer, loads of settings and the 14min quick wash is brilliant, was a little worried about the dryer after reading some reviews but i did a load of towels and they were perfectly dry ( took about 2 hours but my old washer dryer took the same time and sometimes i had to dry them twice) delivery and installation was very quick and the 2 guys made sure it all worked before leaving
After a few months of use, I am surprised by how good it has been. The wifi functions, which I didn’t really care about, are good in that you could theoretically set your machine to do a wash and dry cycle while you are in another city. Or more usefully, set it to run while you are in bed asleep.
The dryer cycle has a standard run time, but then once you put your clothes in it adjusts depending on the size of the load. Surprisingly, the wash cycle does this too. I put on a very small cotton cycle (dying a couple of items with fabric dye) and it adjusted from nearly four hours to 1.5 hours. This is great because it saves water, energy, and your time. I have been drying on low heat most of the time, and it doesn’t seem to take too long. Especially compared to hanging clothes on a horse.
Overall this machine has given better performance than I expected. I will say there are a couple of caveats. The instruction manual is not amazing, the app is useable but could be better, and the aftersales service from Candy is quite unpleasant, as they have hassled me a lot about buying an extended warranty even though I have buildings and contents insurance. BUT the machine itself is pretty good, and reasonably priced.
Reasonably priced, nice machine overall, very easy to use, though the “smart” app is not the best I’ve ever seen (several functions seem unfinished i.e. some of the the programmes display API code rather than description – back when I worked in programming, we would be expected to sort out that kind of basic problem in Alpha, no way we’d have allowed such errors to be live still years after realising to the wild!), but it’s actually pretty intuitive once you get past those little quibbles.
Oh, and the metal body is rather thin and flimsy – it dented in 3 places just from lightly pushing it into the gap! – and the “bottom” is just a piece of corrugated plastic you have to clip on.
But overall it suits my needs so relatively pleased with it.
This has been great. It is so quiet we can’t hear it in the room next door and the raid washes with the shortest of 14 minutes is very handy with a little one.

Easy to instal, quiet and washes really well on various programs. There is short 14min cycle which can be convenient. I am glad I ordered this washer dryer. Little tip, dont forget to take the stabilising screws and plastic tubes from the back of the washmachine otherwise its loud and travels. I would recommend.
