Advantages: Cheap, quiet, good energy rating.
Disadvantages: None so far

...Our washing machine finally gave up the ghost on Good Friday, we went in to Comet Electricals who, I have to say, were extremely helpful, and we chose the ZWF 1621 from Zanussi-Electrolux for three reasons: 1. Price: we did not want to pay over £300, and this was £249.99, plus plumbing etc (I'll come on to that). 2. Good, realiable brand. 3. They had these in stock for quick delivery. Whilst I am not reviewing Comet, we did take advantage of their delivery and plumbing (£32.95) and eco diposal of our old washer (£7.50)....just try getting a plumber out the next day to do all this for £40. The washer is white, two dials on the right, one for wash programme, and one for spin speed. Five buttons on the left; from 'start' to delay start, pre wash, options and half load. There is a very clear display of lights showing what part... Read review

Disadvantages: None worth mentioning so far

...It's been over six months since I've been using the Zanussi-Electrolux ZWF 16281. It is a free standing 1600 rpm washing machine in a white finish with dimensions of (H)85.0 x (W)60.0 x (D)60.0 cm. It seems a well constructed aappliance and I suppose by today's standards it was a reasonable price (Just over three hundred quid). It certainly washes clothes to my satisfaction and wash loads on the whole seem to take the same length of time as my parent's Zanussi ZWC 1300. When buying electrical appliances these days I always take into account environmental and energy efficiency related issues and the ZWF16281 certainly meets my expectations in this department. It comes with an A rated energy rating, an A rated wash performance an A rated spin performance. I think the wash performance related to how much water the machine uses... Read review

...Having just bought a Zanussi ZWF12070 washing machine, which I have already review I decided as my Hotpoint tumble drier was playing up (again) I used to trust Hotpoint (not any more) I would invest in a Zanussi machine in light of the excellent performance of the above washer I chose the ZDC67550W A bit about the company The company was formed in Italy way back n 1916 and thus is well established The Company rapidly grew from a handful of employees to over 300 in a mere 30 year period and have now built a dedicated centre whose aim is constantly developing and improving their range of products. It became part of the Electrolux group in 1980 and still goes from strength to strength and is dedicated to making those routine jobs easier and more efficient What is the ZDC67550W This is what is classed as a condenser drier...

...When I moved to my new home two years ago, I had to buy all the new furniture’s and electrical goods for the house. I needed everything for the whole house and one of the products I needed was a washing machine for my new kitchen. Me and my husband really did do some research when we were buying our white goods for our kitchen. After all that all that research we did decide to buy the Zanussi-Electrolux ZWF1427W. We decide to get this brand of washing machine because it was recommend it by our relatives who had the this washing machine and they told us that it was really good and value for money. Now I will tell you the reasons why I think this washing machine is really good and the reasons why I recommend to all you who are interest in buying a new washing machine. The Zanussi-Electrolux ZWF1427W is a white finish washing... Read review

...As we were moving to our new cottage we decided to buy a new washing machine. The one at the house was about six years old and had already had the engineer out to it once so we thought a new one would be a good idea. It also meant that we didn't have to carry the washer in the back of the car, which is how we have moved everything else up to the cottage! Impressive eh? Mind you we have got a Zafira (not a Mini) and we have got fitted wardrobes at the new place so they didn't have to come but still we're quite pleased with ourselves! By the way it did take lots of trips - we didn't do it all in one go! LOL! We did some research on the Internet and then went to Currys for a look at the machine we liked - the Zanussi Electrolux ZWF 1432W. In fact the price in Currys was as cheap as anywhere on the Internet - £219.95 - so we chose... Read review

Advantages: JetSytstem+ technology, high spin speed, large capacity
Disadvantages: Absolutely None

...needed to do was choose one. I was told by the salesman that Zanussi had been taken over by Electrolux, more famously known for its vacuum cleaners. This made me feel even more convinced that I would be buying a quality brand After looking at the Zanussi models on offer in the store, I made my choice. I finally decided on the Zanussi ZWF16581W. I wondered if I was slightly crazy to be spending nearly £400 on a washing machine. But after remembering all the problems that I'd had with my Indesit, that it surely would be money well spent I told the salesman that I'd made my choice and walked towards the till. I knew my plastic would be screaming at me afterwards, but I didn't really care. Luckily for me there was one in stock, and after a quick phone call, my friend came with his van and helped me home with my new baby... Read review

Advantages: Good Value, Big Load, Looks Cool! Very Quiet and smooth!
Disadvantages: Beeps on cycle finish

...own if you have it on overnight. we are very happy with the washer it is very robust and can handle thick heavy sofa covers being washed, trainers and dirty pe kit being shoved in with gardening clothes, and yet it can also make easy work of hand washing and delicates washes for those more wispy items, like silks. Buy it if you can! we have had no problems whatsoever. there is a newer model in argos now that has an led screen and an even bigger 7kg load capacity but only 1200 spin a zwf 1237 but the model sharing the most features with mine and less cost are the zwf 1621or zwf 1437; but i would buy zanussi electrolux they make good washers....

Advantages: washes clothes really well, large drum capacity, lots of programmes, dries clothes really quickly
Disadvantages: The title of this review - sorry I couldn't help myself

...When the time came for a dishwasher to be installed into my very tiny kitchen something had to give and in my case I had to dispose of my seperate washing machine and dryer and go out and buy a combined easher/dryer. Anything for an easy life. I decided on the Zanussi ZWF1637 mainly because it was the first I saw and because I couldn't be bothered wandering around looking at washing machines on my day off. It cost £330 and was graded as energy efficient A. Once the delivery men arrived and installed it I was quite pleased that there was no hassle, it was plumbed in within minutes and ready to go. The white plastic finish doesn't look tacky and it looks far too bright against the older appliances in the kitchen. The dimensions for information are 85cm high, 60cm wide and 60cm deep. Hardly huge and likely to fit under any average... Read review

Advantages: Easy to use, Cheap, Fresh clean clothes, 'A' rated energy efficiency
Disadvantages: Can't they make one that does the ironing and puts everything away?

...Our washing machine packed up and died a sad death last year. At the time cost was one of our biggest concerns - so we ended up with a cheaper model - the Zanussi ZWF1010W. At the time I thought we'd use it for a few months and then get a better model - but 9 months down the line theres no going back - this is the best washing machine Ive ever used and Im sticking with it. My mum's always sworn by Hotpoints - but I think this one far excels all of hers that shes had over the years - and its so easy to use. Whenever I go home these days I have to hunt for the manual to find out whether I want wash 'A' or 'B' with setting 1, 2 or 3. My one is so simple - and it even has a section at the top explaining what the settings are. It may not look flashy - but it is easy to keep clean and sparkling - it still looks brand new 9 months...

...and wish to merely spin the item, the minimum spin is a 10 minute 'rinse and spin' - impossible to just 'spin'. I still haven't gotten over the fact the door unlocks almost instantly when you find the sock you dropped on the way to the washer! I still love that. I did switch off the beeps for a while, but I found I didn't notice when my machine had finished. I sometimes forgot I even had a load in. Hence beeps back on, and we all rush to switch it off as it's so damn annoying! ORIGINAL REVIEW This machine is hot off the production line at Zanussi-Electrolux. It is a latest improvement on the current batch in that they have upped the load capability to 7kg. As my last Zanussi took a measly 4.5kg and bit the dust with worn bearings you will understand why I am so excited! It's an all-singing, all-dancing, very clever... Read review
