Hisense WFQA1014EVJM Freestanding 10 KG Programs 1400 RPM White Energy Rating E

So far so good, once balanced and padded into position it is quiet and efficient, with a good range of editable wash cycles and handy features like the "pause" function (so you can add a latecomer to the drum, which may result in less widowed socks kicking around hopefully) and the self cleaning steam cycle to eliminate the buildup of bacteria that is inevitable in a washing machine drum. Since we have two children, two cats and a dog and a back garden made currently of mud, having no washing machine for 3 days has led to a staggeringly large backlog, however this plucky little machine has taken the job on and has already dispatched most of the pile to the dryer (which is now the bottleneck and running 24hrs a day until we achieve "normal" laundry backlog levels, at which point I will ease up and run that decontamination protocol on the washing machine). It's surprising how much the drum actually holds, our last machine was bigger but finally after a long and faithful service life it died dramatically (the drum split and it was a write-off). However this machine does a better job and is much quieter.

I wanted to wait until I’ve owned this product long enough to give a fair review. I’m extremely pleased with it! The spin cycle is nice and quiet, the door although lightweight and easy to open/close feels robust. There are lots of wash cycles to choose from but in all honesty some will never be used. I agree with other reviewers though on the lack of a fast but proper wash cycle. However, the machine does weigh the load and will reduce wash time if appropriate. There is a 15 min cycle but I’d have liked a slightly longer one for a small load rather than a couple of items. Overall for the price it’s a great machine.

Very nice machine. The key thing is that the machine offers the features of typical mid to high end Western brands - but at a price point that's much more reasonable. Makes me wonder what exactly we're paying for with the more traditional brands as they're produced in the same place as this machine anyway - China. Pros: - It's well featured - I've got everything I need without things I don't (like Wifi connectivity) - I can control temperature, spin cycles, set a custom delay, have access to all the programs I'd need, and the machine can be paused and the door unlocked + opened early in the cycle if you forget a sock, etc. - It weighs the washing when running some of the cycles (like the Eco 40 to 60 cycle) - which minimises electricity and water consumption when underloading - and also shortens the wash time. - It's quiet - a few people mention that it's extremely loud, which has not been my experience at all - I'd be surprised if that wasn't because they're forgotten to remove the four bolts holding the drum in place during shipping. - It's efficient. Doesn't cost much to run in terms of water or electricity. - The price is great. I got the 10 kg washer for £279. I'd expect to pay over £500 for a typical Western brand. Cons: - The machine lacks a boat / insert for the detergent drawer for liquid detergent so it just runs straight into the sump hose if you run the machine with a delay. However, this is easy to get around by putting a plastic wash ball containing the detergent in the drum on top of the washing. Strictly speaking this is meant to get better results than putting the detergent in the drawer anyway, although it won't be compatible with using pre-wash. - Documentation is not well written, with lots of English errors. The details for the different wash cycles are on a separate piece of paper which is easy to lose, and it's really tough to find the PDF version of the sheet as it's not on Hisense's website as it should be. - Spin performance isn't as good as competitors. Towels, heavy cotton etc comes out damper than other machines I've used. Certainly not sodden or soaked, but certainly damper than I'd like. But one can run another spin cycle. - Drum's a little smaller than one would expect for 10 kg. I believe this is a bigger problem for the smaller drums, like 7 or 8 kg. Worth going for a bigger drum. Can't say anything for long-term reliability of course, but it looks like most of the parts internally are separate rather than some manufacturer's approach of 'everything is in in the drum assembly so you're better off buying a new washing machine than repairing' con. If it was more expensive, it would be 4/5 stars. But for the price I bought it for, definitely 5/5.

2 month updated review: It's still perfectly functional and I'm more than pleased with it. I love it. The steam function has come in useful after my cat decided to urinate on clean laundry. The drum is so big, I have managed to wash my superking duvet and put it away for the summer. Excellent product. Original review: Generally very pleased. I have an issue with the legs not moving up and down, but it doesn't affect performance at all. A good sized drum. Very quiet. Washes well. I enjoy the steam washes. I had an item which was always a bit fusty even after washing but this machine got it totally clean. It's pleasant to look at and pretty well built.

Over the last 34 years of married life I have had 7 washing machines. This is by far the best. I have been using it for over a year now and am delighted with it. In all respects it is perfect and economical to run. The price is very reasonable compared to others and it is perfect for my needs. I can highly recommended this washing machine.

Sono soddisfatto (la uso da poco) delle funzioni, della facilità d'uso, della compattezza e stabilità! La centrifuga è piuttosto veloce e silenziosa, per chi cerca una lavatrice slim con un carico decente questa la consiglio vivamente! Arrivata consegnata con cura e perfetta!

The machine looks modern and works great. Many programs, easy to set up, and not too noisy. Excellent choice for everyday use.

machine à laver endommagée à la livraison , coté latéral enfoncé certainement par le tambour et façade avant décalée par rapport aux autres éléments de la machine.

Wir haben die Waschmaschine jetzt über ein Jahr und sie verrichtet täglich ihren Dienst. Bisher hatten wir keine Probleme. Nachträglich hätte ich mir noch einen WLAN-Funktion gewünscht.

Lavatrice veramente molto bella e con una funzione in più di altre classiche lavatrici, la funzione a vapore mi ha stupito l'ho provata e devo dire che smacchia una meraviglia anche senza detersivo. Una signora che ha visto il mio video mi ha fatto notare di aver sbagliato riguardo appunto la funzione a vapore dove io dicevo che non andava il detersivo, invece ci và tranquillamente, e in più ho sbagliato anche per quanto riguarda i numeri che ci sono vicino i vari programmi ovvero non sono i gradi ma i minuti, quindi mi scuso per questi due errori fatti e siccome vi voglio aiutare davvero negli acquisti "vi prego solo per questa volta di non badare a queste due cose errate che ho detto " d'altronde gli errori sono umani 🙏🙏 ! Per il resto vi ho detto tutto come meglio potevo , avete tutto ciò che vi serve nel video. Se avete qualche domanda sono disponibile a rispondere a tutti. Comunque è veramente un ottimo acquisto ve lo assicuro se la scegliete non sbagliate di certo! Auguro un buon acquisto a tutti . Ciao
