Our test report

Why does the washing machine take first place in our test?


Our testers were thrilled by the outstanding and unique deep cleaning provided by the special steam process. This made it possible to clean even soiled and foul-smelling textiles particularly effectively. Like no other model, it also impresses with its sustainable and climate-friendly product design and remains inexpensive to buy despite its low resource consumption. Thanks to its high capacity and excellent energy efficiency, it can be used flexibly and is therefore attractive for single and couple households as well as for shared apartments and apartment buildings. Because of this, the washing machine is unfortunately also often out of stock. So you should not wait too long with the purchase! 


Up to 40% more laundry could be deep-cleaned in one wash cycle than with competing products


With a capacity of 8kg, the drum of the washing machine in the test has the largest space for dirty laundry. It's enough for a one- to two-person household to only have to turn on the machine once a week for a large load of laundry. This saved the testers quite a bit of work and they gave particularly positive feedback throughout. 


What about the service life?


The built-in hose position protection (also called Aquastop) interrupts the water supply in the event of a sudden water leak. In both everyday use and continuous load tests, the washing machine proved to be exceptionally robust and durable, so the water protection didn't even have to intervene. According to our testing procedures, this appliance had the longest service life. 


Outstanding ease of use and range of functions


With an easy-to-read display, 12 different wash programs and an extremely intuitive product design, even users with little technical experience found it easy to operate. 


Thanks to its patented AntiAllergy program, the washing machine is perfect for people allergic to house dust and bed mites. The Eco mode additionally contributes to the already very climate-friendly operation. With gentle and delicate wash programs, clothes can also be treated with care. Our highlight is of course the deep-cleaning steam program, which can't be found anywhere else and can be selected together with many other programs by simply turning the control button. Thus, all matters and needs are really taken care of. Connection and commissioning is also quick and easy thanks to the easy-to-understand user manual. 


What is the noise level?


The product is the quietest in the test, so nothing can be heard when the washroom door is closed and you can go about your other business with peace of mind. According to the manufacturer, it should get a maximum of 71 decibels loud, but often our testers measured much lower values when the drum was full. This is primarily due to the quiet motor and the stable casing, where nothing can rattle or clatter. 


What is the impact on the CO2 footprint?


It certainly won't grow with this machine in operation. Since it belongs to the latest generation of equipment, a lot of emphasis has been placed on climate-friendly and energy-efficient design in this product. With an annual energy consumption of only 106 kilowatt hours, not only the environment but also your wallet will be spared. Thus, the test winner is the most cost-effective in terms of purchasing and operation. 


Deep cleaning with steam


As our tests show, even coarser soiling, foul odors and stains can be removed with our test winner without much effort. Thanks to the sophisticated deep cleaning program, these problems simply dissolve in the steam, which allowed the device to additionally excel in the test.
