Advantages: Quality, very large drum capacity, load sensing for water saving. Disadvantages: Touch sensitive buttons can trigger if you brush past them.
...owned a smaller 6kg tub Siemens machine but sold it a couple of years ago to get a secondhand Dyson. This was great as it had a very large drum. However I had a bad feeling that the bearings may give up in the next year which would mean ££ callout. I had got used to the very big capacity of the Dyson so didn't want to go back to a small drum machine. This machine is rated as 8kg! That is actually 1kg more than the Dyson. So, I have spent the last ... ...The capacity of the Siemens drum is almost as big with a slightly smaller stated volume of 65 litres. Overall, I think that its a one-for-one swap with the Dyson on capacity. The advantages over the dyson; 1 Cold fill only allows better washing with bio liquids.
2 Doesn't vibrate as much on the spin (same 1400rpm speed)
3 Clean design that isn't as funky as the plastic dyson.
4 Good solid construction. Door, powder tray all look good quality. ...
Advantages: Large capacity Disadvantages: Poor customer service
We have had Whirlpool machines for 20 years or so because they are fast and have a good capacity. We have had this machine for 18 months. There are just two of using it and the tub bearing failed. Whirlpool want £662 to repair it or provide a new one for £595. We paid that amount for the original one. After some correspondence with Whirlpool they said they would not offer any recompense for the failure even when advised how little use it had had. ...
Advantages: Good value machine, washes well on every programe Disadvantages: Quick wash cycle takes ages!
...going to happen again. This Beko model was the cheapest one recommended on comparison web sites. Well I have to say I am chuffed to bits with it. It does exactly "what it says on the tin", lovely clean clothes on all programs, even the delicate wash. It is a very quiet machine, with easy to follow controls. My only little gripe with it is that Beko's idea of a quick wash programe is a bit wide of the mark to mine! Apart from that I am very happy ...

Review of Beko WM5100S
Advantages: NONE Disadvantages: Length of time for wash, Poor wash, Leaking, over-sensitive balance
I bought this machine about 6 months ago as a fairly basic work horse machine. It is cold fill and supposed to be green & economical to run - huh!
Firstly it takes 2.5 hours for a full cotton wash and I would question how 2.5 hours electricity saves much over heating the water a bit more. I don't have that time to wait for a wash to finish - so what economy?
Quickwash is just a swill round - nothing more.
The balance mechanism is so delicate that ... ...still dripping - more waste of power and time. On several occasions it has leaked water when taking in either through the soap drawer or today - the door!
I like to hang washing outside when possible but half the day has gone before the wash has finished.
I did have a fault soon after purchasing and I must say that was cheerfully and speedily fixed. This is the only good thing I have to say.
The rest has been anger, irritation, aggravation and ...
