Hoover has a notable history in producing top quality home appliances at affordable prices, with washing machines being an area of expertise for the company, who are always looking for ways to innovate and improve in this area.
The DXA610AW is no exception, featuring a wide range of exciting features, both practical and economical.
Generally speaking, there are three key areas that most people looking to purchase a new washing machine should consider; the size of the drum, the spin speed and the machine’s water/electricity usage (measured per annum). The DXA610AW ticks each of these boxes comfortably.
Ideal for a large family, the DXA610AW features a 10kg drum, allowing for large loads of washing to be done with ease – no worrying about multiple washes in one day! Not to mention the time saving aspect that a larger drum size brings. Keeping this in mind, though, the DXA610AW stands at an average height, easily allowing for seamless integration into an existing kitchen or laundry room setup.
The DXA610AW has a powerful 1600rpm spin speed, which simply put, means that a spin cycle will go a long way to reducing excess water on any wash load, the benefit here being a lot less time spent drying clothes or linens in a tumble dryer or on a washing line. As well as being a huge time saver, this also means big savings on day-to-day energy costs, which all adds up over time – tumble dryers are often the most expensive appliance to run in a household, so a good spin speed is essential.
Keeping with the theme of economic benefits, the DXA610AW has been awarded an A+++ energy rating, the highest that can be attained. Using only 239kwh per annum and 12900 litres of water per annum, based on an average amount of washes, allowing DXA610AW users to save money in the long run. Additional to this, the DXA610AW features a cold fill option, which means that when a wash is selected, the machine fills with cold water, which is then heated up by an internal thermostat, yet another outstanding economic benefit of the machine. If you combine this with the machine’s quick wash setting (a full load of washing in just 14 minutes!), then the savings just keep adding up. The quick wash setting itself is ideal for anyone with a busy family life.
Moving onto to other features of the machine, the DXA610AW has an excellent auto function system, allowing users to select the required load, (towels, for example), while the machine selects the appropriate spin speed and temperature – a feature both user friendly and time saving. Although, if you prefer a little more control over your wash load, fear not, the option also exists to manually selects and edit these settings using the machine’s LED display screen.
Noise is often an issue that customers enquire about – and rightfully so – some older washing machines have been known to sound like small aircraft taking off when in full spin mode! Fortunately, this isn’t a problem that the DXA610AW suffers from, with a 51db wash and an 80db spin, which simply put means that the machine isn’t overly loud when washing, essentially being no louder than your average conversation.
Overall, the DXA610AW is an economical, user friendly appliance with a great range of features, best suited to busy families.
