Editorial note

The Electrolux EWW1688SWG washing machine stands out with its 8 kg washing capacity and a maximum spin speed of 1600 rpm, ensuring perfectly spun laundry and saving time during drying. Its intuitive control panel, combined with an LCD screen, greatly facilitates program selection, thus providing a satisfying user experience. Additionally, its integrated design and modern white color allow it to harmoniously fit into various living spaces. However, there are some drawbacks to consider. The drying capacity of 6 kg may be insufficient for large families, and the washing cycle time of up to 515 minutes may seem long for those seeking a quick solution. Furthermore, the noise level during spinning can reach 77 dB, which could be disturbing in a quiet environment, especially at night. The lack of an anti-crease function may also require additional ironing, adding to the household workload. In terms of energy performance, the annual consumption of 1088 kWh may appear high compared to other more energy-efficient models. Despite these drawbacks, the machine remains a solid option thanks to its varied features, enhanced safety with the AquaStop function, and practical use. Overall, the Electrolux EWW1688SWG offers good value for money for those looking for a high-performing washing machine, although it is essential to consider its limitations in terms of drying capacity and cycle time.
