Zanussi Washing Machine: ZWF12070W

Advantages: Large porthole for easy loading/unloading, easy to use dials, delay start
Disadvantages: Soap Dispenser doesnt flush enough water through and sometimes leaves clumps of soap

...I bought one of these machines when I renovated my new flat last year and must say that I'm quite impressed with it. I previously had an 800rpm, 4KG load washing machine so to go upto 1200rpm with 6KG was quite a noticable difference. I was recoomended this product by a friend of mine who had the 1600spin version, so I researched it a bit to make sure that the lower spin speeds came out as good as the higher one (I think that it was reccomended in Which? aorund the time that I was looking), and found that alot of people had positive opinions for all spin speeds. I later found out that this machine starts from a 1000 spin upto a 1600 spin verson, it's only myself and my partner at home so we decided to just go for the 1200 in the end - and this suits us fine. I like the fact that it has a delay start function (upto 9 hours) as I can...

Zanussi Washer Dryer - Brilliant

Advantages: Easy to use, quick washing cycle
Disadvantages: None

...When our old washer/dryer brokedown we were keen to replace it with another one, but my previous make was no longer available; the Zanussi Washer Dryer ZWD12270W seemed to be the best match for our requirements. It was a reasonable price in the category and supplied the same amount of drying space. I did some internet reseach and found the best deal at currys.co.uk. The machine is £279.99 plus £19.95 delivery & collection of old one. Another trawl of the internet found that I could get free delivery with the code AWSALEDEL and then got 1% cash back by going through the greasypalm website to do the purchase. The statisics are :- # Wash and dry in one machine - a great space saver. # Wash load capacity - 6kg # Drying load capacity - 3kg # Ratings - C Energy A Wash B Dry # Wash controls - Variable spin & temperature...

Happy washer

Advantages: clean clothes
Disadvantages: none so far

...After the door broke on my washing machine and had to be forced open so that I could get my washing out. I decided it was time to go and buy a new washing machine. I like to shop around for a good deal before I spend my hard earned cash on expensive items, as most washing machines cost from £200 upwards depending on where you buy and which size washing machine you go for. So after checking out the main stores, Currys, Argos and Comet I spotted a Zanussi 12070W 1200 spin on offer at Comet for £230 if you bought it and took it away the same day. Now, I'm a bit dubious when it comes to the larger stores sales as most of the time you find the item you want go to get it only to be told it's not in stock and that a similar product is usually a little more expensive, which is what happened when I went to get my washing machine. The next...

Three As for Zanussi

Advantages: Good all round performance and environmentally friendly
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...

Zanussi ZWC 1300

Advantages: Good Value Product
Disadvantages: None

...After using this product for a few months I have not so far come up against any reliability issues but only time will tell. I therefore would recommend the product.

Zanussi-Electrolux ZDC 67550

Advantages: easy to use large capacity
Disadvantages: None so far

...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.

I love my Zanussi Washing Machine

Advantages: Good value, easy to use, quiet machine with loads of options
Disadvantages: Can't see how long to the end of the washing programme

...My old and very noisy Servis machine died the other day (it had been dieing since day 1). I did loads of comparisons looking for the best machine available in my price range. I'd always thought that a Zanussi machine would be out of my league, so was extremely surprised with the competitive price offered. It was extremely easy to remove the transit spacer (although you do need a 10mm spanner) and the bar at the back of the drum. Once this was done it was a case of attaching the relevant pipes and then it was ready to go. When I used it for the first time I was impressed by how quiet it is and that you can hardly hear it, even when it spins at 1200 rpm. It takes a 6kg washload which is great for those larger items like duvets and blankets. This machine also sports 15 different wash programmes including all the usual ones...

Well Done Zanussi !!!!

Advantages: Superb results, Excelent value
Disadvantages: Extended manufacturer warranty costly...shop around

...First of all thankyou in advance for reading this, my second review. Hopefully it will be of some use to anyone interested in purchasing one of these machines or just as a comparison. I will try and cover the main features of the washer and explain how I have found them in terms of performance. When purchasing any product like this manufacturers tend to claim that their product is far better than the competitions. Being inquisitive and to have a better understanding, I tend to try and find out why it is better and how the results are archived. Zanussi's claim to fame is their "Unique Jet System" as this is the main selling feature I took the time to find out what it does and how it does it, rather than just being a term in a brochure. I also find asking these type of questions highlights how much or little the sales team know...

zanussi washing machine zwf1421w

Advantages: great washing at fairly low cost
Disadvantages: none found

...lately i found myself in the rather unfortunate p[osition of having to buy a new washing machine and this is what i found whether by luck or judgment i dont know but i did good. this machine for the price of £227 is a pure bargain i got mine from tesco.com and through quidco you get a rebate of just over £5 added to your account. the quality of the wash is superb in my opinion and the extra spinspeed of 1400 is well worth the extra few quid. for all you carbon footprint watchers out there the consumption is 1.14kWh using 54 litres over 155 minutes which i feel is about average for todays machines and with the complete ease of use this machine will suit anybody who needs a good family sized washing machine as it will hold 6kg of washing without breaking the bank...

Zanussi-Electrolux ZDC 67550

Advantages: large, easy access,
Disadvantages: lint can get onto clothes on removal. Cannot change door opening!

...Having had a wonderful easy to use zanussi tumble dryer for the past umpteen years, I looked around and found that as i was satisfied with it's past performance, I would go with another zanussi. I have a large capacity washer, so I needed a 7kg dryer. The machine works well, although has many different settings, which i don't need and makes it a little complicated. The water reservoir is located at the top for easy removal. It is quiet and with the large door, makes it easy to load. Unloading however, You have to make sure you clear the lint filter before removing any clothes as it is situated at the front, just inside the door on the main body, so you have to pull the clothes out across it. When i forget- which is frequently, the clothes pick this up, which is rather annoying! I have it next to my WM and it would make life a lot...
