Best 8kg Washing Machines To Make Laundry Easy Work

The Indesit My Time will help you look after the environment, as well as being affordable. Planet-friendly features include the Energy Saving programme that washes your clothes at lower temperatures, therefore using less power and saving you some money in the long run. The Water Balance setting is kind to the planet too, as it uses less water and energy while still leaving your clothes spotless. As well as all that, the machine is super quiet thanks to its inverter motor - perfect for small houses, late-night laundry and open-plan kitchens.

Customer review: "Good choice of settings with a couple of quick settings, with the cost of living crisis this is a great option. A large drum for a family of 5, with a good spin, clothes, except towels and jeans, come out drier than my last machine which was the version before this one. Hope this one lasts as long nearly 6.5 years, being used at least every day. Ordered on Saturday afternoon delivery by 1pm the next day."

The Beko 8kg washing machine will make the tedious task of washing pretty easy. If you're after a quick wash, the machine's Daily Quick programme takes just 28 minutes, and the ProSmart Inverter Motor will make sure it doesn't make a racket. Great for medium-sized households, there's also a handy DrumClean setting that rinses out the insides of the drum to get rid of all the lingering bacteria and germs that comes with washing endless amounts of dirty clothes.

Customer review: "Programming a variety of cycles is wonderfully simple as is the noise output - very quiet! Couple that with its energy efficiency I don't have a negative word to share. Quite simply, an excellent washing machine!"

This AEG washing machine is packed full of perks that make it worth the money you pay for it as well as an A-rated energy performance that makes it kinder to the environment and your energy bills. There is a steam cleaning programme (refreshing clothes with only 2L of water), automatic load adjustment and a special wool cycle to ensure all items in your wardrobe can be catered to. The 1600rpm on this machine makes it ideal for doing everyday laundry, drying clothes just enough so that clothes don't come out dripping wet whilst still ensuring not to damage the fabric.

Customer review: "We have been using this washing machine for over 3 weeks now and really enjoying it. It was delivered super quickly, was very easy to install and it's so simple to use. It has loads of different programmes which you can still amend to suit you (like the temp, spins and even use a 'time save' button' which decreases the time of the washing on some of the programmes). The only downside I could think of is the fact that out of all 10 programmes only three are actually allowing you to use the full capacity of the washing machine. Otherwise, it's great to use and while so powerful it's definitely the quietest washing machine I have ever had!"

Designed to be tucked away behind a cabinet door in your kitchen, this Zanussi machine will fit seamlessly into your fitted kitchen design. Highlights include a 1400rpm spin speed, a Quick Wash that will clean your clothes in 30 minutes, a FlexiTime feature that means you can adjust the length of a full cycle and a Delicates programme. This popular machine is often in low stock, which is a testament to its quality.

Customer review: "This is the best washing machine I've owned. The wash is quiet, and when it is complete the door unlocks and the machine turns itself off."

Finding a great washing machine is a hard task right now, but there are some on the market that offer a fab machine at an affordable price point. This Hotpoint 8kg washing, which comes in an eye-catching black, has a handy Anti-Stain 40 programme that shifts marks without needing pre-treatment. It uses just the right water, temperature, detergent and movements to lift stubborn stains. If you've got pets, the Steam Hygiene uses steam to remove common bacteria and the Anti-Allergy function endorsed by Allergy UK as it washes at higher temperatures to remove allergens. We especially love the addition to the wash function.

Customer review: "Firstly the appliance is appealing to the eye. Modern looking with an electronic display. It has 14 different washing cycle options. You can also alter the temperature and spin speed as well as an option to delay if needed. You can add in an extra rinse for those really dirty washes plus a fave of mine the steam hygiene and rapid option."

The Haier iPro washing machines have been created to deliver professional-level laundry results in the comfort of your own home. Each one of its features has been designed to improve performance while at the same time reducing noise and energy consumption, saving you time and even allowing you to fine-tune the duration of your laundry cycles. Packed full of features, this A-rated machine uses digital internal scales to weigh your laundry before figuring out the best cycle duration, has a Smart Dual Spray that cleans and refreshes your drum after every cycle and even has a refresh function that uses micro-vapour technology to remove odours, fine dust, and allergens.

Customer review: "It is rated A for energy efficiency and it it very quiet when it is spinning. It was one of the few slim depth machines on the market, which was essential for my kitchen. I like the light that comes on in the drum so that you can see if you have got all of the clothes out, such as socks."

Premium in price and quality comes the Miele WED025 WCS, with customers claiming their earlier models from the same brand lasted upwards of 20 years. Offering an extensive range of features and programmes, the Miele has been awarded the Quiet Mark with a super low 68dB on a spin with the drum's web-like, honeycomb cushion effect helping to protect fibres and prevent piling and laddering in your textiles. CapDosing keeps clothes smelling fresh, and AddLoad even ensures there's no sock left behind.

Customer review: "Fabulous quality machine well worth the money. Short programs are great. Time remaining is handy just lightly tap the digital display and it appears. So far I'm very happy with my purchase. The 1400rpm spin isn't as good as my old machine. Instructions on how to turn off the end of the programme bleeping off a bit confusing worked it out with patience. Please note product features states door is reversible but it isn't."
