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.

Had a few minor issues

published

The led indicator seems to be playing around sometimes works other times is blank. The cold water pipe was bent on install and now sticks up but the washing machine still works. It hasn't removed normal day stains and has left powder like grit over some cloths and it has rattled around the floor a few times too

Piece of crap

published

Just over two years I have had it and nothing but trouble! The leveller ends up needing replacing and water won’t drain from it. Days and days without a washing machine constantly waiting for the piece of crap to be fixed. Would never ever by beko again! Pet hair removal is a fad also as it takes forever and doesn’t remove it all! Do a short wash and chuck them in the dryer instead!

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.

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.

Washes well for a low price

published

Washing cycle for a good wash should be around 30 minutes and this washer does that with a 4 star weighting
Has a timer count down in minutes.
User is able to set spins as well a water temperature which is a bonus. The 1400 spin frequency gives a very dry output that saves drying time in the dryer however the washer does not overly vibrate at this high speed
The only difficulty is not being able to open the door to add that forgotten item but that is due to the higher operating water level in this brand.
This washer has a new tech inverter motor
5 year warranty too

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.

Value for money

Beko washer exceeds expectations. It is quiet, washes well, plenty of options and settings.
So far no issues. Would recommend to family and friends.
Mostly use daily quick wash, default is approx 30 minutes, can add extra rinse to do a better wash in 45 minutes
Beko now offer a 5 year warranty for free.

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.

Value for money masher

published

I purchased this washer after having nightmares with the last, I learnt to never buy second hand as nobody is ever honest about the sale they are doing.

I purchased this machine from the local electrical store and have had no issues with it since. Is so quiet and sounds super cool with the new drum technology.

I would reccomend to get a machine with the 10 year warranty on drum well worth the little bit more at the checkout.

Milly J.asked

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
