    Verdict

    Beko DTLCE70051B combines good value with practical features like EcoGentle technology to protect fabric colors, a hygiene program approved by Allergy UK, and sensor drying to avoid over-drying. Its lightweight design, quiet 65 dB operation, and quick 14-minute fast cycle make daily use convenient. The Fusion Filter requires minimal maintenance, while the large 32 cm door simplifies loading bulky items. On the downside, it has a small 7 kg capacity, high energy consumption of 4.21 kWh per full load, limited programs, no inverter motor, and lacks features like bidirectional drum motion or self-cleaning condenser.
