The machine has a lot of good points, especially price. It is quiet, has a good spin cycle and does a reasonable job of cleaning. However, it leaves fluff over everything and rolls the laundry up into a tight ball which can be a real drag to unravel. I am told that it is a feature of impeller based washing machines and there is nothing to be done about it. It grieves me to throw away a reasonably new washing machine that is in good working order, but we have resolved to replace it with a machine that uses a flexible agitator.

First purchased this machine 2 years ago, and overfilled it (as not recommended to do so) the machine then stopped draining and eventually filled beyond half way of the drum. I took the clothes out, emptied the water & took the machine back to ALDI with the original receipt. I was offered a full refund on the spot. Fortunate enough for me there was a new machine on the shop floor! The cashier refunded my machine and put through the new one so I was covered for an additional 3 years warranty. Overall, very satisfied for the price, service and the machine itself.

I love my 9kg Aldi washing machine. It cleans very well and doesn`t make half the noise my previous Kleenmaid would. Can tangle clothes but that means you probably should have put it on a gentler cycle. Living on a farm and using bore water, it has a great feature to filter your water so it doesn`t get to your pump. For $400, I have already got my money`s worth! Very impressed.

This has taught me a lesson for buying cheap Aldi appliances. This machine is rubbish. It worked for a week and then stopped (and even whilst it was operating, it didn't wash the clothes at all well and damaged some items). The suppliers (Tempo) didn't want to know about it.

I have had this washing machine for about 5 months now and have found that it does not clean clothes and towels properly leaving dust and chunks of material from towels even though they have been washed separately and the filter has been emptied.

I like the touch features, but find that is is quite loud.

I understand that it is cheap but it's still not worth the trouble of having to dust clean everytime your clothes dry. I will definitely be buying a renowned and recommended brand.

Absolute rubbish this machine worked for only 2 washes then the pump stopped working. We got that fixed and it stopped again with in another wash. This garbage should not be sold and ALDI needs to be ashamed of stealing money from customers for this junk. I also bought the dryer which I took back within the first 24 hours as it did not turn off. I'm lucky I was home or my home could have burnt down. APPALLING.

I can't even put into words how angry I am. About 3 months into having our washing machine it started saying error4 after it would do the wash. Which means it refused to do a rinse or spin.
We had a man come out 3 TIMES to fix it and have only just been granted a refund (of which we are still waiting for), and it's been 10 weeks! 10 WEEKS without a working washing machine. The money we have paid in using our dryer (from handwashing) and from using the laundromat would be more then just getting a good legitimate washing machine. Please guys do not buy this. Please.

A good & inexpensive heavy duty washing machine. Just purchased in the catalogue sale. Quiet and works like a dream. Impressed. Thought it would be dodgy but has a 3 yr warranty. I was very keen to review for those hesitant people. You will be pleasantly surprised at the quality and performance

Horrible, always knotting up clothes, always seems to break or comes up with errors. Would not recommend it at all! When we called a service man to come fix it, it has taken them over a week to get back to us on when they would come and fix it. Absolutely appalling!

During warranty period the filter and motor had to be replaced. I had to check at least twice every wash to untangle clothes. Now that it is out of warranty it will not spin, pump out water and its electronics have failed. Aldi is good for many products but not cheep electrical goods.

I bought this stirling washing machine for $300 what a great price at aldi byron bay about 3 years ago No problems with it so far it works very well a bit noisy maybe but it does not schew up socks. It does not shake the house, it is so compact for such a big load Great item.

So I buy a washing machine from aldi, yes I pay for what I get lol. The washing machine has stopped working now the tec has 48 hrs to contact me then it could take a further 2-4 weeks to fix. Wow so I have to pay once again to clean my cloths and I still have the product that aldi states on the phone massage is only of the highest quality lmao. Never again aldi and if I could send you the bill for the laundromat I would. Fell robbed.

Had this machine for a few months, we bought it on price and supposed ALDI quality. Now I am appalled at the way everything is tangled into one big mess, nearly pulls shoulder muscles everytime to empty the clothes out.
It has been reliable but the wash quality is poor. I have had to re-wash many articles and fluff adheres on everything.
I am now looking for another machine.

Having to wrench all the water out after wash now..been only a year since we bought it..lost the docket so can't get warranty..not good,poor quality..when we first bought it we thought for that size machine it sure was a bargain..now we know why..thanks but no thanks...good luck to all the other buyers.

I have now owned one of these machines for 4 years and havent had a single issue with it. I perform basic maintenance (cleaning etc) and always try and wash with a full load. No problems with spin cycle it is relatively quiet. It does spin poorly (clothes still wetter than other machines i have owned) and does tend to tangle the clothes ( both can be improved if separated by hand before spin ) but really given it was less than half the price of similar sized machines and i have not spent any extra money on it i am still happy overall.

We have returned our machine for a full refund, so are happy with Aldi's service in that regard. The machine itself is not much good. It badly tangles and knots clothing, but the worst aspect is it's pathetic attempt to spin clothes dry. Not dry at all, soggy and heavy even after repeated spins.

poor spinning, bad tangling
