Hoover HNL842

Large capacity, fairly quiet running.

I fail to see how a machine that takes over 3 hours to complete its standard programmes can possibly by classed as economic (this machine is advertised as have a A++ rating) - the only programme Ive found that matches my previous machine is adequate but doesn't spin at the 1400 rph as advertised, and I only discovered this programme by ringing Hoover direct. The instruction book does not give cycle times and I feel the purchase was a waste of money (although it was discounted at time of purchase) as I do not use any of the other programmes available because they all take far too long to complete. The short cycle programmes are for tiny (3kg!) loads only.

noise level excellent (almost non-existent); washes well; heats only the water it needs; ease of use

not a fast spin on all the daily programmes

Quick wash cycles and the variety of programmes - particularly handwashing.

The main wash programmes take far too long to complete- although the washing comes out clean. Noisy on the spin cycle - sounds like it is about to take off.

Great machine time saver cycle's are great.

No bad points other than you must remember to press start after setting timer! My fault not their's.

big load size means less washes which is fantastic with 3 kids. highly recommended.

Very quiet,easy programmes,good clean wash for 8Kilos tub.

No crease guard hold.

The amount of washes ad delay starting

Does not take my powder from the drawer. I now put powder in the dispenser, it leaves it all over the drum glass. Everything is cold even on a hot wash It's noisey

nice and quiet and easy to use

non yet

variable wash times and excellent spinning

overall extremely good product cleans clothes fantasticly well!

quick wash and long wash cycles but no mid range cycle

Simple to use, good cleaning results, spins well, very quiet when operating.

Instruction booklet not very clear about controls and the different programmes.

Value for money. A very quiet machine, I have to go and see if its on. Very Quiet spin. Time delay is great as I can run it at night on cheap electric. It have every thing I wanted. The Quick Washes very very handy. Great wash and dries very well.

Over two hours on 40AA wash with a large full load, But it dose a great wash. The Quick Wash is better for most washes with half a load. (Colours & whites) I only use the 40AA for bedding. I have found that most new washing machines take at long for a 40AA any way. So not that bad a point.

Loads of options, hence 7/10 on ease of use. Its in the cellar so I don't notice how noisey it is There are lots of energy save, short cycle times which is why we bought it

The machine has none so far

Cold water fill, Temperature spot on, Large load capacity, so easy to use,even I can use it. P.s, I am the male of the house.

Non found yet

cheap and easy to use

some cycles are too long

Easy to use

very long cycle takes forever compared to my hotpoint

So far it is performing very well There are 3 short programmes which is very convenient and do get the clothes clean.

Minor bad point because of the fast spin speed which does get the clothes drier; once dried, clothes are stiffer and need more ironing and perhaps now the addition of sofener.

plenty of room for washing

Nothing that I know of

excellent load capacity, very quick cycles and pretty easy to use too

Bigger than most washing machines so make sure you have the space to get it in!

Load capacity.

For a 1400 spin speed , does not appear to leave items very dry on daily cycles, is this a defect?

Very quiet and excellent choice of programmes

None really

cannot adjust the spinning speed on each cyle therefore most of the cyles the clothes come out really wet and cost a fortune to tumble dry. The only cyle that appears to have a high spinning spped is the one that takes ages.

delay start, stain buster,time saver. All in a good machine which I'm happy with except for the few complaints below.

no crease guard delay on spin, only cold water fill when I always have a full tank of hot water so not too economical for me.

The load quantity - fantastic!

Noiser than my previous machine when new (but that said the previous one didn't stay quiet for long!)

The spin speed is not variable, and cycles are quite long
