Manual of product WM Elite 8A
Editorial note
The Bauknecht WM Elite 8A washing machine stands out for its high energy efficiency, displaying an A class and a consumption of only 47 kWh for 100 cycles. This allows for substantial savings on electricity bills while reducing environmental impact. With a nominal capacity of 8 kg, it is perfectly suited for families, offering the ability to handle large amounts of laundry at once. Practical features, such as the delayed start timer and the add laundry function, make its use intuitive and flexible. However, some drawbacks deserve mention. The weight of 68.8 kg can complicate installation and moving, especially in tight spaces. Additionally, the water consumption per cycle of 48 liters is relatively high compared to other models, which can increase water bills. The absence of certain safety technologies, such as the AquaStop system, may also be a concern for users mindful of home safety. Finally, the spin noise level of 76 dB can be bothersome in quiet environments, and the maximum washing cycle duration of 218 minutes may not suit those looking for quick options. In summary, the Bauknecht WM Elite 8A offers remarkable performance and energy efficiency, but certain aspects such as its weight, water consumption, and noise level could deter some buyers.Score details
