Beko WMA 510 > Reviews

Advantages: Simple, cheap, reliable.
Disadvantages: Not the most stylish, some parts could be more robust. (minor gripe).

We have had the Beko washing machine for a good few years now and its been around so long that I am not even sure I can remember exactly how long that is. At least 3 years maybe more. It hasn't been without it's problems but I'll come to that issue later. Lets start with the design of the machine... Our's is white and lets be honest, does the colour really matter, I think a silver one was on offer when we ordered ours from one of the generic ... Read review

Advantages: Reasonably priced
Disadvantages: Noisy in use

The product was purchased 6 months ago and although it is used nearly everyday it has washed clothes well.One or two things have come to light since it was purchased,after a few months it became very noisy when it reached the pump out and spin cycle.The merchant who supplied the machine sent an engineer to rectify this and although the pump was changed the noise persisted.The engineer told us this was perfectly normal but we find it very irritating ...

Advantages: Good energy efficiency
Disadvantages: doesnt have a big brand badge (if that worries you)

...old machine was removed. The Beko was easily set level using a spirit lelel and the adjustable feet (this prevents tem wandering across the floor during spin cycles) THe machine has now been in service for 4 months without problem, its used once a day and still as quiet as the day we bought it. We were concerned that a cheaper machine would be noisey but it isnt. I would have no problems in recommending this machine to anyone whos after a no nonsense, ... Read review

Advantages: QUICK, EFFICIENT, CLEANS CLOTHES FIRST TIME EVERY TIME, GREAT VALUE
Disadvantages: YOU CAN BUY IT NOW FOR LESS THAN WE PAID

A CRACKING MACHINE We purchased our machine almost 12 months ago and it has to date coped extremely well doing 2 or 3 loads per day. The machine is quiet and runs a good deal better than previous machines we have had. It has a good range of program settings, but most importantly for us, it gets our clothes clean first time, every time. The Time save function is particularily useful for us as it cuts down the cycle time and allows us to fit all ... Read review

Advantages: Quiet, Quick, Simple to use
Disadvantages: On/Off Button is a push in not Digital

Beko really do make wonderful appliances, this washing machine is so quiet I sometimes have to check I have switched it on. I love the fact it has a childlock function, so I don't have to worry what my 2 year old is touching. It is very simple to use. The only downfall I would say is the on/off button is a push in button not digital so my son can switch it off, but it will just carry on from when it got switched off when you switch it back on!!! The ... Read review

Advantages: Quiet and easy to use buttons/dial
Disadvantages: No indication of which stage of the cycle it's at during wash

Have had this Beko washing machine for a few months now and am very pleased with the performance of it. I was a bit spectical at first because of the price, but it certainly does the job just as good (if not better) than other machines I have owned in the past. It's quiet enough for me to put on at night, even the final spin doesn't disturb me or my neighbour upstairs The only irritation for me is that you can't really tell how far through each ...

Advantages: 30 minute quick wash, child lock, pause function.
Disadvantages: None spring to mind

Beko WMA 510 is excellent Value for money. It is easy to use and comes with a manual that explains each operation in detail and plain english, not double dutch. The best thing about it is their is a child lock button on there so no little fingers can change the cycle half way through a load. The drum will take a fair amount of clothes, don't overload though or it is horrendously noisy and doesn't clean that well. Powder dispenser tray is really ... Read review

Advantages: cheap, energy efficient, quiet
Disadvantages: slow spin, small load

I have owned this machine for about six months. We wanted a washing machine that didn\'t cost the earth, either in terms of expense or energy usage, and the WMA 510 seemed to fit both those criteria. So far it has been doing a great job of washing our clothes, and everything comes out nice and clean. The load size is a little small, for example we can\'t wash a full set of double bedding all at once, and the cycle times do seem rather long. If ... Read review

CURRYS SALESLADY ASKED IF I WANTED TO CONSIDER A MORE CREDITABLE MAKE, HAVING JUST PUT A £500 MACHINE IN THE GARDEN, AND ON A BUDGET I RESISTED AND STUCK TO THE BEKO. I FIND IT WASHES BETTER THAN THE STATE OF THE ART £500 MACINE, ITS LESS NOISY AND SEEMS MORE ROBUST. THREE CHEERS FOR A PRODUCT WHICH DOES EXACTLY AS IT SAYS.

Nice reliable , cheap washing machine, Nice size drum, Quiet, Have had this washing maching for last 8 months and not once have we had any problems with it. With having 4 children we do quite a lot of washing every day and for a washing machine to take 3 loads a day, every day , i think it has done really well considering. No problems what so ever with it. would recomend this to anyone

Advantages: the delivery was prompt and trouble free
Disadvantages: It broke after 2 washes

...and his partner purchased a Beko WMA 510 as a Birthday gift for me from Currys. The washer was delivered Friday 2nd November 2007,by two friendly guys who plumbed it in and removed my old machine for recycling. So far so good. I have managed to do two loads of washing and then half way through a wash cycle the machine stopped leaving the washing half washed and unrinsed and a full drum of water. This happened today Sunday 4th November 2007 ...two ... Read review

I have had this product for about eighteen months. It has always creased all my washing even on the lowest temperature settings and it tends to not rinse thoroughly leaving white streaks all over my dark clothes which can only be rectified by using liquid detergent. All in all I am not very pleased at all with this machine.
