Discover our range of washing machines
For many, washing laundry is a daily routine, so why not make life a little easier and choose a washing machine with the right features for your home? Capacities range from 7 to 13kg, and spin speeds up to 1600rpm. You’ll also find energy-efficient models with various cycles, all available in a choice of colours to suit your space. Plus, we offer washing machines from top manufacturers, including Blomberg, Bosch, Hisense, Schönhaus, and Samsung.
Types of washing machine
Freestanding appliances are flexible and easy to install, as you can place them anywhere in your kitchen with a water supply.
These appliances are designed to hide behind an existing cupboard door, blending seamlessly into your kitchen.
How to choose the right washing machine
- Size & capacity – Choose a drum size that suits your household. 7–8kg works well for smaller homes, while 9 kg+ is ideal for families or larger loads like bedding.
- Space & fit – Measure height, width and depth carefully, and check for door clearance. Consider integrated vs freestanding depending on your kitchen layout.
- Energy efficiency – Look for a strong energy rating to help reduce electricity use and lower bills over time.
- Noise level – Check decibel (dB) ratings for wash and spin cycles, especially if your machine is near living spaces or you run it at night.
- Programmes & features – Make sure it includes the cycles you’ll actually use, such as quick wash, eco mode, delicates or allergy care.
- Running costs & performance – Energy rating, water consumption, load size, water pressure and programme choice all affect efficiency and cleaning results, so selecting the right settings matters.
Key features to look for
Here, we explain some of the features you can expect from the range of washing machines we stock.
- Spin Speed (RPM) – Higher spin speeds remove more water, so clothes dry faster after washing.
- Washing Capacity (kg) – The maximum weight the drum can handle in one cycle. Larger capacities suit bigger households.
- Energy Efficiency – Shows how energy-efficient the machine is, helping you compare running costs.
- Delay Timer – Lets you schedule the wash to start later, ideal for off-peak energy times.
- Quick Wash – A shorter cycle designed for lightly soiled clothes.
- Eco Programme – Uses less energy and water but typically runs for longer.
- Steam function – Helps reduce creases and refresh clothes and may assist with allergen removal.
- Noise Level (dB) – Indicates how loud the machine is during wash and spin cycles.
- Inverter Motor – Designed to be quieter, more energy-efficient and longer lasting than standard motors.
- Auto Load – Adjusts water and energy use based on the size of your load.
- Child Lock – Prevents settings from being changed mid-cycle.
- Drum Care – A self-cleaning cycle that helps maintain hygiene and performance.
Energy efficiency and running costs
Washing machines are rated using the UK A–G energy label, making it easy to compare efficiency at a glance, with A-rated models using significantly less energy than lower-rated alternatives.
Energy consumption is measured using the Eco 40–60 programme, which is designed to wash normally soiled cotton laundry at lower temperatures, reducing electricity use. On average, modern machines use roughly 0.4-1.2 kWh per cycle on Eco 40–60, depending on capacity and model. Actual running costs vary based on temperature selection, load size, cycle choice and spin speed, as hotter washes and smaller, repeated loads typically use more energy overall.
For the best balance of performance and savings, run full loads where possible and use Eco 40–60 for everyday laundry.

FAQs
Q. What size washing machine do I need?
The easiest way to find the ideal washing machine is to consider your household size and whether you wash bulky items regularly. 6-7kg is ideal for 1-2 people, whilst 10-12kg is perfect for 5+ people. Remember that a larger drum used at half capacity isn't very efficient, so don’t oversize unnecessarily.
Q. What’s the difference between freestanding and integrated washing machines?
Freestanding washing machines can be placed anywhere in your kitchen for complete flexibility. An integrated appliance sits behind an existing cupboard door for a seamless finish.
Q. How much does a washing machine cost to run?
A standard washing machine uses around 1–2 kWh per cycle. With the current energy price cap at roughly 24.67p* per kWh, that works out to about 24–48p per wash. The average UK household does around 270 washes per year. At ~35p per wash average, that's roughly £90–£100 per year.
*Price cap rate from 1st April – 30th June 2026 (Money Saving Expert)
Q. How long should a washing machine last?
Generally speaking, you should expect a washing machine to last between 7 and 12 years, depending on usage and proper maintenance. A common guideline is: if the repair costs more than half the price of a new machine, it's usually better to replace it.
Q. What does RPM mean?
RPM stands for revolutions per minute and is the number of times the drum spins around in one minute during the spin cycle. The higher the RPM, the more water is extracted from your clothes. A typical range is 1200-1600 RPM for most machines.
Q. What should I check before delivery or installation?
The key things to check before delivery or installation are the dimensions (height, width, depth) of the space, as well as doorways and hallways, to ensure the machine will fit, including narrow doors and corners. You’ll also need to ensure your floor is level, that your cold-fill inlet and drainage system are nearby, and that there is an easily accessible 13-amp socket.
Q. Do you offer installation and disposal?
Yes, we offer setup, installation or removal services at a small additional cost. Check the product page or our terms of sale for details.
