Wrapped to the the back teethOh I'm loving this machine. So deep I nearly need a foot stool to reach the bottom. Just the right amount of settings to cover all the washing. I'm going mad washing pillows, doonas, dog bedding and floor mats.
I can't find anything negative to say, so far it's brilliant.
Don't tell anyone, but I'm enjoying doing the washing.

Hate it!Worst washing machine I've had!
Do not buy if you want this machine against a wall because the taps will prevent the stupid lid fully opening.
Do not buy if your floor is uneven as it only has one adjustable foot.
Do not buy if you like to customise your wash cycles because you can't.
Machine will not do a hot rinse.
I miss my samsung!

My family of 8 are stokedI compared reviews, pros/cons etc on washing machines for some time before purchasing this one (as I do with everything I buy, I cannot afford to buy unsatisfactory duds). For my family of 8 which includes 2 dirt loving boys, 2 sweaty men, 2 mess loving babies, a tween who's conscious of her hygiene, and a busy Mum who likes to lessen my chores as much as possible, it is one of my favourite purchases. My king blankets get washed up no sweat, and big couch cushions too. Has a timer so I set it to start during cheap electricity hours. Doesn't have any expensive filters to replace, just your standard one I clean out every few washing (just open it and pick out bits of lint). It even washes out most of the laundry detergent smell which surprised me haha as my previous front loader kept all the laundry smell in, but I guess that's a really good thing as it shows it's really WASHING everything out - not just giving the clothes some wetness with an added load of scents. The settings are user friendly and simple too and I love that it's not overwhelmed with all the unnecessary settings that don't get used. Most days just load and push Play.

Great Size[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far this machine is doing all that it said it would. It is larger than I thought it would be - just getting use to the water levels. It does make a odd noise when it is locking the lid but you can pause if you forget something. Wouldn't recommend if you are on the shorter size (I am 160cm) and can just reach the bottom for the odd sock!

work horsePurchased sight unseen, never ideal....my fault.. IT is very large, & very heavy & quite dark, so make sure you look before you buy.. getting clothes out of bottom is difficult. make sure you read instructions. has a good warranty. only used it twice but the good thing is I can fit my king size bed sheets and pillow cases etc etc in one wash.

Big impressions[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Today we bought the Whirlpool 15kg Sanipro Top Loader. It’s an impressive looking machine, so quiet in its operating.
Drum is huge with no middle agitator so you can fit duvet, sleeping bags or large blankets easily to be washed. First impressions I’m really impressed.

Work well, but doesn't hold as much as I expectedWashing machine works well. I do not believe it holds as much as my previous 14kg LG machine, which is disappointing, as I specifically purchase a higher kg model as I wash large loads daily
