It has a large 9kg capacity, perfect for large families or washing bulkier items such as blankets and towels.

Alongside a Best Buy recommendation, Which? also gave the Whirlpool washing machine a high score of 75 per cent, with five stars for its cotton wash, and four stars for its energy and water use, synthetic wash, rinsing efficiency, spinning and drying. It was particularly praised for its washing performance, additional features such as 24-hour time delay and child lock, and number of programmes.

Which? commented: “This is a fantastic Whirlpool washer. It does a great job of cleaning your clothes, allowing it to waltz through our tests to achieve a high score of 75 per cent and our Best Buy recommendation.

“This is a great machine for those who want a large-capacity washing machine with a bit of extra functionality.”
