Editorial note

The Electrolux EW8WN261B washing machine stands out for its high energy efficiency, with an A class for washing, allowing savings on electricity bills. Its 10 kg capacity is ideal for families or users with a significant amount of laundry. Additionally, with a spin speed of 1551 rpm, it ensures well-spun laundry, thus reducing drying time. The operation of the device is also quiet, with a spin noise level of only 76 dB, making it a practical choice for daily use. However, some drawbacks are worth mentioning. The energy efficiency class for drying is E, which could lead to higher electricity costs. The absence of a light inside the drum may make its use less convenient in poorly lit environments. Furthermore, the duration of the washing and drying cycles, respectively 230 and 475 minutes, may be perceived as long, which is not ideal for users in a hurry. Finally, although the drum has a volume of 69 L, it may not be sufficient for large families or for washing bulky items like duvets. In terms of performance, the product scores highly, particularly for its efficiency during washing and its robustness. Practical features, such as the anti-crease function and AquaStop, are an added bonus. The user interface is intuitive, and the available documentation provides valuable information for easy installation. Overall, the Electrolux EW8WN261B represents good value for money, despite some drawbacks that may not suit all users.
