Each part is rated on one scale for every washing machine, from real tests where they exist, what reviewers found, specs, warranty and above all what owners report about washing, breakdowns and the brand's service. It rates the machine itself, not how good it is for the price.

Pros

  • Many programmes for the money
  • Time-left display and child lock
  • Long motor warranty

Cons

    • A spec-sheet rating of the 7 kg CRLW070FAF259601 calling it a popular pick at its price; not a hands-on test.
