Good machine for the price

published

Bought about two years ago from recommendation. Would say it's a good machine for the price you pay. Great short cycle's for short washes however some do range over an hour. The only downfall is the clothes do not smell like they have been washed until you use expensive fabric softener.

Very good

published

So happy of my purchase, noiseless and quiet, efficient, easy to use, well designed. quick wash is very handy but most of the programs are very long >2h because of energy efficiency. quality of materials are very convincing and so far after 10 months of using I am happy with that.

Great product!

published

Very effective washing machine. It cleans well, is quiet and the clothes come out neat! The 40 minute cycle is a good feature that gives a clean which is neither too quick nor too long. Can adjust the water temperature, the rpm, etc... Child lock available. Has good water efficiency plus energy efficiency ratings - not an easy combo to find in the market. Been a couple of months since starting usage and thoroughly recommend this product.

Good So Far

published

Used for the washing machine for 6 months - no dramas so far.
Purchased because of low energy and low water usage. I have noticed a saving on the power bill.
Washes clothes well, bit noisey on spin, notice it does move a bit it the legs aren't even.
Purchased from appliance online via ebay. Wait for the 10% off all products to save a bit more coin.

Beko

published

Has a variety of programs from just 14 minutes quick wash up to intesive 3 hour wash. Delayed start option is handy
Pet hair function however is only available on the longer washes and doesnt seem to actually make a difference still cat hair on clothes.
Very quiet not disturbing at all.

Great size, great wash.

published

It is easy to set the time and to what type of wash you want to do.
It is also a very quiet wash.
The colours come out looking great, clean and fresh smell.
It comes with a 5 year warranty but by filling out some information you can extend the warranty to an extra 5 years.
We paid $649 at jb hi-fi.
We haven't tried the pet hair removal function.
I have found that there is a lot of different washing functions and most take along time yo do a complete wash. We do the daily 28 minute cycle and is great.
It only attaches to a cold tap so if you want to wash in warm or hot you have to wait til the water warms to that temperature.

Smart and good looking but not ok

published

As title the machine is very smart. It has ao many great functions. It can wash in 14 mins and 28 mins. It is good looking. The build is fine. However when it operates it seems the internal is not quality. Every time it stops turning it’s wobbling and makes worrying noise. Very very sad but I have returned it for a peace of mind. Hope they can improve the quality. The machine is so efficient. However it’s impossible to add clothes if you load more than 3 kgs because the water is too much in there. Price is not that cheap at all.

It works

published

I've had this washing machine for about eight months now and it's going well. My expectations were not high considering that it was cheap and the old one needed to be replaced. That being said, it does the job. An added bonus is the pet hair option. It's handy, even though it's just a another rinse. Would recommend.

Fantastic Value and great washing machine

published

This washing machine is great, its fast on a general daily wash and does a pet wash it takes 3 hours but great for all the dog bedding and it comes out like new. Its really quiet unless you have it on the highest spin setting. Love the large front door so any to get clothes/bedding etc in and out.

Very Good Unit

published

Very happy with my purchase for this unit. Seems quiet enough, the speeds are good. The wife tells me she can get plenty in it, or at least she has never complained about that yet.
Overall very neat and tidy, not loud as my laundry is close to my theater room and we do not notice it.
Would recommend to others.

Perfect for Family Use

published

It's the best washing machine we have so far. It cleans our clothes properly without damaging it. It is also energy and water saving so it's economically friendly. Our electricity bill and water bill are not that high even we use it almost everyday. So far, we're loving it and great for family use!

Huge problem!

published

This washing machine is good quality and gives good results every time, however, when washing it sometimes spins like CRAZY, is VERY aloud and shakes ALOT. It makes everything around it vibrate and shake causing there to be a huge commotion. This is a huge problem because it isn so loudness that it disturbs the whole house.

Works a treat!

published

Easy to use and clothes come out clean. It’s relatively quiet with a great feature in setting the timer to when you would like the clothes to be washed by. Simple to use with a range of settings to suit your needs. Think it’s a great washing machine that does the job well.

Excellent machine,very stable

published

We live in a tiny two bedroom flat with a combined bathroom/laundry. The Beko machine fits perfectly and has the appearance of more upmarket (read expensive) models. We combined it with a Beko condenser dryer and have them stacked. It is a perfect combo for a small apartment, very quiet running and economical with water supplies. We would recommend the Beko washer and dryer combo to anybody wanting an efficient, cost-effective and smart looking combo. As the two units are twins in appearance, they would also look good in the kitchen alongside each other if preferred.

Love it to bits!

published

This washing machine is absolutely brilliant. I love the range of programs for different applications (the daily quick for cottons is almost magical!), I love how quiet it is. I love how gentle it is on my clothes, and how clean my clothes come out. The only fault I find is that the alarm to remind me it has finished is too quiet, so I have to set one on my phone to avoid forgetting I put washing in...

WMY7046LB2 (7kg)

My washing machine has stopped working. The display panel lights up and I press start but nothing happens. I have had the machine for 3 years, I was washing towels today and for some reason it threw a fuse in the power box mid cycle. I have switched it back on but now I have the above problem. Is there a re set button combo I could try like in other models? Mine is the WMY7046LB2.
Thank you.

Hi Milly I had my machine for 18 months. Ever since I bought it I had issues. It was shattering, and leaking as well.
They sent a technician and he said I may put too much washing powder. I reduced the amount of washing powder I use. Still it was shattering. He came back and said the floor is not leveled. He took the machine and tested for few days came back and said no fault found. He used my own rubber mat to put underneath and said he would come back with rubber foot year ago. I'm still waiting. In the mean time I made a complaint someone from Beko called me but they didn't help. He said im doing something wrong. The only reason they called me, on the feed back it says if they don't get back to me within two business days the feedback goes on public.
My machine is still leaking and shattering after following all the troubleshooting they provided me.

I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS BRAND TO ANY ONE.

Milly Please raise a complaint although it 3 years old, it should be covered under ACL.

Good Luck
Regards

Hi Milly, sounds similar to what ours was doing. Seemed like the machine wasn't recognising that the door was closed and that it could now start. Sent it in expecting them to say we need a new door lock instead got told it was the PC board and main board quoting us $495. It was also just on 3 years old. Beko didn't respond on product review at all. Betta just told me it was out of warranty. Counted our losses and bought a secondhand Samsung. Best decision ever! So much quieter and works great.
Didn't realize how flimsy and loud the Beko was until replacing with a Samsung

My washing machine has stopped working midway through a cycle. The power box threw a fuse. I have switched it back on and the machine lights up on the display panel but won't actually start. Is there a re set trick or something I can try. Troubleshooting guide in manual didn't mention anything.
Thanks

Hi, my beko washing machine wmy 7046lb2, it starts up fine, the water enters fine, but the drum does not move, does not wash or spin at all. You can hear the the machine is working, but the drum is not moving at all. Is there a reset for this machine or is there anything I can do? This is only 11 months old. Cheers Ken

Hi guys, no it's ok now. I decided after 1 day no washing machine to just check the belt, it was the belt that came of for some reason unknown. But it's going great again thanks for your reply
