Hoover HNWF3135

Advantages: Wash and dry a full load in one go, easy to use and beautifully quiet
Disadvantages: none found so far

...back. The NHSF3135 or Hoover NEXTRA is my latest acquisition. Having appraised the other models in the shop, wondered at the psychedelic colours and weird and wonderful shapes and claims my eyes finally stayed with the NEXTRA. It is sleek, smart, has easy to use dials, no programming and get this, lights on the front which tell you how long your machine has left to run. An added bonus was the free bike we received for purchasing it but I hasten ...
...way forward and I thank Hoover for being farsighted and thinking of the poor housewife. On the practical side, the knobs are chunky, easy to use for those not so nimble, they are firm yet easy to move, unlike some, which are stiff and difficult to turn. The controls are easy to follow giving both temperature and wash load type, so you don’t have to keep referring to your book to see which setting you should be on, and there is a variable temperature ...

Advantages: Only need one machine
Disadvantages: Not good if you want to use the dryer

...to come out soaking wet. Hoover seem happy to keep sending out repairmen, and flatly refuse an exchange or return (very customer friendly). Thankfully I brough this though a catalogue and they kindly have fought on my behalf to get a full refund. I would maybe put this experience down to me getting a dodgy machine, but my mother brought the same model a month after me, and guess what? It broke down, for the same reason and the egineer told her she's ...
...of one of Hoovers own engineers was to get a seperate tumble dryer if you have room. If you don't have room try another make, and good luck, but bear in mind Hoover and Candy are one and the same, so you might want to avoid candy washer dryers also. ... Read review

Advantages: 5kg wash and dry
Disadvantages: keeps breaking down

...I use this a lot. I'm so unhappy with is product that we have now asked Hoover if we can swap this model for a separate washer & dryer, we are waiting to hear from them. (The fluff getting trapped in the pipe is a common problem with this model) ... Read review

Advantages: wash and dry, easy, several programs
Disadvantages: expensive

I bought this machine few years ago and so far I did not experience any problem. The only thing I would say is that it is better non to dry the clothes straight after the washing because they may not be clean as you were expecting, and they will crease a lot, which will result in extra energy consumption with ironing. With this machine I mainly use the 44 min. wash but for my baby clothes I remove the stains before washing. I think that the other ...
...As for drying is very practical. I've never had a dryer before and having it incorporated to the washing machine is very convenient in terms of space. I usually let the washing to dry for a day inside and then I use the dryer to finish them up in order to reduce energy consumption. If I have too many laundry to wash and dry, I prefer washing at home(the machine has a 5kg capacity) and then go to the laundrette because it's faster and cheaper. I also ... Read review
