Manual of product WS12M361BY
Editorial note
The Siemens WS12M361BY washing machine stands out for its energy efficiency with an A+ rating and an energy consumption of only 0.93 kWh per cycle. It offers a large washing capacity thanks to its 46 L drum and a nominal capacity of 6 kg, allowing for a significant amount of laundry to be processed at once. The delayed start feature of up to 24 hours is a major advantage for adapting the wash to your schedule while optimizing electricity costs. Its ergonomic design, including adjustable feet and a door opening angle of 165°, facilitates access and daily use, even in tight spaces. Additionally, with a noise level of 55 dB during washing, it operates quietly, which is a benefit for home use. However, the 6 kg capacity may be insufficient for large families, and the spin noise level of 74 dB could be disruptive in certain environments. Furthermore, the lack of a load balancing system may lead to excessive vibrations when washing uneven loads. Although the washing efficiency class B is acceptable, an improvement could be desirable to compete with other models. In terms of value for money, the product is reasonable, but some users may find the annual water consumption of 8650 L relatively high. Finally, the provided documentation is helpful, but more comprehensive online support would be beneficial for users looking to optimize the use and maintenance of the appliance.Score details
