Third-party reviews

What customers like about Beko DFN05211W

  • Washing and drying both earn an A rating.
  • The top basket adjusts in height to fit taller items.
  • Overflow protection guards against spills.
  • An adjustable water softener lets you match the setting to your water.
  • Quick, intensive and half load programs cover the usual needs.
  • A time remaining indicator shows how long the cycle has left.

What customers don't like about Beko DFN05211W

  • At 49 dB it is loud enough to hear from the next room.
  • It uses 3360 L of water a year, which adds up in a busy home.
  • Each cycle takes 1.02 kWh of power, so daily use adds up.
  • It holds 12 place settings, which can run short for a large family.
  • There is no quiet program, no delicate program and no Wi-Fi.

Verdict

A-rated washing and drying are the main reasons to look at the Beko DFN05211W, a budget machine with room for 12 place settings. The top basket adjusts in height, which helps fit taller items, and the salt and rinse aid lights tell you when to top up. Overflow protection and an adjustable water softener add peace of mind. The trade-offs are noise and water use. At 49 dB it is loud enough to notice in an open-plan room, so run it when nobody is trying to nap. Each cycle uses 12 L of water, and the delay start can be set up to 9 h ahead. There is no quiet program and no Wi-Fi. It suits a family on a tight budget that wants a plain machine for everyday meals.
