I use to have front loader machine and its brokes and bought this new one top loader machine, The main benifits of this machine is you can put more clothes then front loader machine with same size capacity. Never tangle the clothes, smooth running, diffrent wash cycle suits your needs also best in spinning

You won't realize until after purchase that this machine (Washsmart 10kg) ) DOES NOT do a warm wash. I thought the hot water was incorrectly connected, but if you read the manual, when you select 'wash temp' you are only choosing the first 4 mins water spray stage. After this, no matter what temp you've selected, the bowl fills with COLD water!
Other features are good, but I wanted a WARM WASH -as is claimed.Stunned by this actually - very misleading.

Brilliant. Bought a few weeks ago to replace my 20 year old F&P no trouble machine. I bought it so I could was my horse coats duvets etc without overloading. It is easy to use and I love the way it is similar to old machine. Great design of top of machine so dirt is easy to wipe out. It is so quiet, even with a full load that I have to keep checking to see if it is working. Saved me heaps of time and power as I can wash all the sheets, duvet covers in one go. I would recommend the large model over the smaller one as you never know what you will need to wash.

All clothes are cleaned very well. My husbands work clothes and very dirty kids clothes all come out clean. I can even put the dark and light clothes in together and they come out clean and not covered in fluff. I would definitely recommend this washing machine to anyone who is looking at buying a new machine.

love this washing machine! It's HUGE!! just the 2 of us at home, but my boyfriend works in a dirty and dusty environment and our old front loader just wasn;t getting the clothes clean. The first wash in this new one was amazing. Delayed on/timer is a life saver. It's a quiet machine, especially with spinning. Lots of options depending on what load you are doing. Eco friendly settings too

We purchased this after the last F&P washer needed replacing after 10 years. The size is great for a family of 4 and we purchased this model as it allowed for manual water level adjustment. It's quiet compared to the old model and others we looked at. It's washes very well. My advice is if you are used to an agitator style machine then you won't be disappointed. Some of the reviews complain about tangling and lint but we have not had any such issues. You have to load the machine as you would any agitator style model and if you do this you are rewarded with a great wash each time.

Cleans Very well. Had this washer for 5 years doing non stop washing at caravan park. Never had one problem. Have another park now and will replace terrible MAYTAG washers with either Fisher & Paykel or Speed Queen.
Cant recommend these machines highly enough.
No Belts...No gearboxes... Direct drive motors are wonderful.
If only more people knew about these everyone would have one.

I am almost 74 still caring for children & have used many brands of washing machines throughout my lifetime .This washing machine would be by far the best l have used it holds great capacity doesnot tangle clothes is quiet & washes to perfection the only drawback is it diesent hang out the clothes .

Never had an issue with lint but we have to vacuum our clothes once dry due to the massive amount of lint.
We contacted fisher and pykel only to get told to buy a lint filter from them for $44 plus $15 freight...and it might fix the problem.
A $1000 machine should not have this issue in the first place.
Time to contact fair trading I'm thinking.

As a family of 7 it gets a run for it's money. It is quiet, small, and has a range of different wash cycles.You can add more washing in after you have turned it on when you have found more washing in one of the kids rooms. It is perfect!

Cleans clothes very well, runs quietly.
Only thing it doesn't do is continue to beep when the wash has finished. Have looked up if this can be programmed but can't find any instructions. Our old model continued to beep until lid was opened. So we have had to do a couple of washes again as we have forgot that the wash has finished and we have gone out and come home to smelly clothes

This machine was a great buy. It is so quiet that you think that it is not on. My wife also likes it because its features are so simple to use as she hates appliances with to many gadgets we even showed our kids how easy it is to use. We have only had it for a few weeks but everything about this machine is excellent. Our clothes come out nice & clean and has no trouble handling our queen size sheets & doona covers. We would recommend this machine-10 out of 10.

i love this, but it still isn't as good as my old westinghouse machine. but it well.
its quiet, spins the clothes very dry,
you can add to the load if you wish, just have to do it when the lid is unlocked, or press pause.
i like the fact the lid locks so little ones cant open it.
my favorite cycle ist the quick cold wash, but i use the long hot was for linen and whites.

Best machine I have ever owned.I actually look forward to getting up & doing the washing,even asking everyone if they have any washing for me to do!!It washes beautifully on all cycles & the clothes come out fresh & clean,from delicates to towels.So much fits into this perfect workhorse.It has many great features such as auto programming & water levels,or adjust to suit your needs.It is simply the best,better than all the rest.

I have just purchased this machine after the Simpson I had was unrepairable after around 5 years, (never again a Simpson) the machine is quite easy to use and hopefully reliable over the long term, so far I am very happy, the controls are easy to use, a very nice touch it to have the lid loaded with a spring so that it closes slowly and does just drop, I believe that this washing machine is built throughout with the same thought.
