The Best Integrated Washing Machines For A Seamless Kitchen

With a spin cycle volume of just 66dB, only slightly louder than a human voice, the Bosch Serie range has the quietest integrated washing machines on our list thanks to its EcoSilence Drive that reduces friction and the AntiVibration design that keeps the machine more stable.

Alongside this, the Serie 6 packs some fab time and energy-saving features, such as the ActiveWater automatic load adjustment system that’ll only use the water and electricity necessary based on your load, and the SpeedPerfect function that can reduce most of the 12 wash programme times by 65 per cent. Forgot to pop in a sock or your favourite shirt? You can load missed laundry mid-cycle. 

Customer Review: "Love my Bosch integrated washing machine. Lovely and quiet which is perfect when you have a kitchen and lounge combined. Excellent spin mode which gives you a choice and is so easy to use. This is my 2nd Bosch washing machine my other one had to stay at my previous house. I had it for 6 plus years without any problems always very reliable. I live in a hard water area so I do use Calgon with each wash and I do a monthly clean which maintains the machine."

The 7kg capacity of the Beko RecycledTub makes this washing machine well-suited for couples or small families and comes with a great range of programmes to support such households. There’s an Anti-Allergy cycle to flush out pesky irritants, a special sportswear cycle for cleaning sweaty sports kits or gym wear, and a Fast+ function to speed up your programmes so you don’t need to hang around.

While this washer has a C energy rating, making it slightly less energy-efficient than some alternatives on this list, we love that the tub has been made from recycled plastic bottles making it that bit kinder to the planet. 

Customer Review: “Plenty of programmes suitable for everything. Very efficient as well especially on 20 degrees washes. It's easy to use and pretty quiet as well. Would recommend. The delayed timer isn't very accurate at all.
Plus, the waste pipe and electrical cable could do with being a bit longer than standard. This is an integrated machine so waste points are often a good distance away."

Having been awarded the Quiet Mark for its low noise 68dB spin cycle, the AEG 7000 uses an inverter motor so you can run a load day or night without causing a disturbance in your home. With ProSense technology, it automatically weighs each load to provide a tailored cycle and despite its lower energy rating, it includes many eco programmes such as TimeSave for energy-efficient washes that save you valuable time.

It’s a little more limited on programme variety but includes some great programmes such as ProSteam to help you cut down on ironing and dry-cleaning and SoftPlus to make sure the softener reaches every part of the garment.  

Customer Review: “I recently bought an AEG washing machine from John Lewis. I am really pleased with this product. The quality of the wash, the choice of programmes and the overall performance of the machine is second to none. I would highly recommend this washing machine to other customers.”

Speaking of programme variety, the smart black Hoover HBWS48D3ACBE boasts 16 wash programmes to help you clean all sorts of garments and outfits with the care and precision they need. From sportswear to shirts, delicates to wool. Quick wash in just 14-minutes, wash dark colours and whites separately or together with the All-in-One programme, or opt for an Eco or Allergy Care setting. You can even customise your loads with choice of temperatures, spin speeds, and times – the options are endless! 

Customer Review: “What I particularly like about Hoover machines is the quick wash option. You can choose the time from 14/30/44 min and the temperature from 20/30/40 degrees. This is so useful as mostly our clothes only need a freshen up and you can put a few loads on within a short space of time. The black colour of this machine also looks smart when the door is open and fits in with our decor. Overall, very impressed and satisfied.”

At the top efficiency in A-class, the Hoover H-Wash 300 Pro reduces consumption starting from 51% compared to a G-rated washer, saving energy, and money, and protecting the environment. With a 9kg capacity making it great for busy households, KG mode will take care of the hard work for you by weighing your load and automatically determining the right amount of water, time, and wash needed for your fabrics.

With the All-in-One programme, you can wash any piece of clothing in just 59 minutes or use the Rapid Cycle programmes to wash a small load in as little as 14-minutes, all programmes manageable via the Hoover app. 

Customer Review: “It has a very large drum and door so it is easy to load (as this is an integrated appliance, the door is not on view all the time, had it been a freestanding model, I wouldn't have liked it). Lots of cycle options. I have no need for the Wi-Fi facility so I cannot comment on that feature. I like the 18-minute fast wash too - ideal for freshening things up that haven't been worn for a while.”

Integrated washing machines are typically more expensive than freestanding models, but this budget option from Logik is wallet-friendly and has great features. With a D-class energy rating (that would have been A+++ on the old scale), and an array of standard wash programmes, it's a little basic but great value. It comes with options for 14-minute quick wash cycles, silk, and eco settings to name a few and a delay timer of up to 24 hours so you can fit your laundry schedule around your busy day.

Customer Review: “Great product, excellent value for money. Great range of programs with the rapid program options being particularly useful."

This HOOVER H-WASH 300 Pro HBWOS 69TAMCBET Integrated 9kg Washing Machine is a sleek black model. There a several rapid cycles, including at 14 minute wash for up to a 1.5kg load. KG Mode weighs your load at the beginning of the cycle and calculates the exact time and water needed. It can factor in whether it's cotton or synthetic fabric. The Hoover H-WASH 300 Pro connects using Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to your smart speaker and smartphone. The All-in-One programme means you can mix whites and colours in one wash. Importantly, this model has an inverter motor, so it's quieter (72db spin) and produces less vibration than an older appliance – crucial as this will be encased in a cabinet.

Customer review: "Great handy programmes, especially for quick washes, very quiet and spin programme really helps get those clothes pretty dry before hanging on the line which is amazing as the clothes from my last washing machine were always quite damp."
