Third-party reviews

What customers like about Candy BC4S695M6D8-S

  • Sixteen washing programs cover most fabrics and everyday loads.
  • A 1600 rpm spin leaves clothes drier before drying starts.
  • Washing uses 40 kWh per 100 cycles, which keeps power use low.
  • The AI sensor adjusts water and time to each load.
  • A 14 min fast cycle is handy for a quick wash.
  • Wi-Fi and Bluetooth let you connect it to your phone.

What customers don't like about Candy BC4S695M6D8-S

  • A combined cycle uses 75 L of water.
  • Spin noise of 72 dB is noticeable in a quiet home.
  • Only three drying programs limit the choices on the dryer side.
  • Its combined energy class is D, so wash-and-dry cycles are less efficient.
  • At 63 kg it is heavy to move for cleaning behind it.

Verdict

Daily washing is where the Candy BC4S695M6D8-S makes most sense, with 16 washing programs and a 1600 rpm spin. Its 9 kg wash load is large enough for bedding and family towels, and the 5 kg drying load covers everyday clothes. Per 100 washing cycles it uses 40 kWh, which keeps power use low. The AI sensor measures the load and adjusts water and time on its own. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connect it to your phone, and a 14 min fast cycle handles a small urgent wash. The trade-off is drying: there are only three drying programs, and a combined cycle uses 75 L of water. It is also a little loud on spin at 72 dB. It suits a busy household that washes often and likes quick cycles and smart features.
