We have had this washer for 6 months now- long enough to get to know it and take its reliable results a bit for granted. We are very happy with it and I thought someone else could benefit by our experience so i will go through some details and reasons why
The machine
This is a relatively petite washer considering its capacity. It also has an extra wide (35 cm)door which opens to 180 degrees and is higher than on most washers making it really easy to get washing in and out, particularly large items such as duvets. The door hinge is on the left and when open the door is flat against the machine where they are out...

...My last washing machine broke down a few weeks ago and after a painful 13 days my new Hoover was delivered, no it is a washing machine just made by Hoover.
I bought it from Littlewoods catalogue and it cost me £299.

Then I removed four big long fixing screws in the back of the washing machine and covered them with a cap that was provided. Next to fix a bit of insulation sheet to the bottom of the machine with some double sided sticky pads and a couple of plastic caps.
I did not need to adjust the feet as the washing machine was stable and did not hop across the floor.
It only has a cold fill so only one hose to fit...

Advantages: Good Suction, lightweight Disadvantages: none
...section for all those silly extra tools that come with vacuums. This means that they don't clutter up the cupboard under the stairs and you can't loose them.
The on button is large, and is supposed to be foot operated, as is the cord rewind button, though these look very similar and I still sometimes press the wrong one by mistake.
The chrome tubing has a plastic hook near the nozzle end that can be slotted into one of the two holes on the vacuum body. This is so your vacuum can be stored neatly in two different positions.
There is a indicator on the front of the body to show how full the bag is and the bag is easy to change.It is also fairly light, 5kg to be exact.
Noise levels
The hoover web site describes it as a "Quiet 73 dBA in operation", and although I don't really understand how loud that translates too it is quieter...

I seem to be completly at odds with the other review of this washing machine, seem to be two completly experiences of the same product.
We have had this washing machine now for 3 months, probably a fair amount of time to have used most of the settings more
This Hoover washing machine is great! The best feature is its 9!!!!KG drum--- the average drum is about 5kg and if your like my mother who seems to be washing constantly (she does have 3 boys after all) its a massive help... likewise if your just a... more
