Haier HWT70AW1 (7kg)

Bought last week due to the old Haier model broken down.

This new one seems to run quiet and not shaking. Still new so it's early to tell. but so far it's pretty good for $500

Firstly the one thing I had trouble with was programming, however once i realised that all I needed to do was select memory the last wash I selected would replay that wash .
Be warned THERE IS NO FABRIC SOFTENER facility in this machine, what I do is premix some powder or liquid detergent in a old OMO bottle and put a bit of Fabric softener and dissolved powder in with some water and next time i do a wash I simply pour the pre mixed powder and softener product into the wash it works a treat ..try it apart from that very little tangles and just a great low cost basic washing machine from the Fisher Paykel company @ $484 from the Good Guys you wont go wrong .

As a granny I needed a small machine for a modest price that would give me good results and it certainly has lived up to my expectations. A compact machine, the end result is amazing super clean clothes, bedding etc. 10 min cycle fantastic for delicates. I have washed dog blankets, floor mats and the dirty residue that comes from cleaning the filter is proof it is really doing a good job. I laminated the instructions but the press button features are easy to understand and operate. It may lack myriad of settings and features but it does the job, results in clean washing, done quickly, efficiently, quietly and a cost effective solution for those living alone or with small families.

I did research before purchasing this item. Great washing machine for a single person. Easy to operate. Many different cycles/levels/timers. Washes my queen size fitted, flat, pillowcases and a few other items in one cycle. Gentle cycles work very well on clothes, particularly jumpers, fragile garments (use cold water only). Compact and inexpensive. Very Happy with my final purchase.

Bought a washing machine. Top loader under $500. Handles up to 7kg load. Not a big nor heavy machine. Simple to operate. Nothing fancy. No dispenser for fabric softener but not a biggie.

2 star energy rating with 3,5 star water rating. 2 year warranty.

Cycle times vary from 10 to 54 min in the 6 wash Cycle. No Hand Wash feature. Suppose Delicate will do the same. Can vary Spin times from 9 to 3 min. Water Level from Max through High, Mid and Low. Temp can be Hot, Warm or Cold. Has a Key Lock facility.

Has Dry Drum feature to prevent mildew growing in the tub. Not tried it yet as no need atm.

Lint remover on the small side. 2. 3 washes tops before emptying.

Great washing machine thus far purchased for family of five no issues at all purchased 6 months ago great value for money and my favourite feature would be the quick eco wash as it only takes 8 minutes from start to finish on a medium load of clothes im glad i purchased this product so i wemt out and bought a haier fridge 2 weeks after this purchase

We have been using this machine regularly for almost an year now without any issues. It does clean clothes as per expectations. There are various modes to choose from and water consumption is not ridiculous. The filter cleaning is easy and its a low maintenance machine. The load capacity just suffices for 2 adults and 2 kids.

It does a good job of washing my clothes. However, this might just be because I only have small loads because I only use it for myself. It hasn't worn out any of my clothes yet and it seems to clean them very well. I like how adjustable the settings are, you can choose how much water and how long you want to wash it for. The quickest setting is good if you know your clothes aren't too dirty and you're in a bit of a rush. The only probable downside is that it doesn't have a separate section for liquid detergent/softener, it only has one section for powder detergent.

I have used this washing machine for 8 months. The frequency is once per week, It works well with main functions. The clothes are cleaned and rinsed well. In most of the times, it works under an acceptable loud. Sometimes in the final stage, it throws an error and paused. Then it needs manual intervention to restart it. In most cases, it works fine.

I have this w/mach at our unit (weekender) I love that I can get ALL the guest (1 or 2 night guest ) sheets, towels done in a 15 min quick wash & it washes them well. Takes a whole set of KS sheets too. Mine was noisy till I worked out it was the water hose banging the unit, so moving that solved it.
This is my 3rd Haier ( 3 different places) in 5yrs - YES I will buy another.

We got the machine cheap as it was a clearance item. We are a family of 5 and it does a load a day (sometimes 2) and it seems to wash ok, haven't had any problems. Occasionally it will stop due to being unbalanced, but most washing machines do that!
The normal wash cycle is quite long - 47 minutes. It does have a 'quick wash' cycle that only takes 10 minutes, but I only use that for very delicate items.
