Third-party reviews

What customers like about Candy RPW41496BWMBC-S

  • The 14 kg wash takes a full load of bedding or towels.
  • The 9 kg drying capacity dries a big load in one go.
  • 16 washing programs cover most everyday fabrics and needs.
  • Bluetooth is an uncommon extra for this type of machine.
  • The wash is quiet at 52 dB.
  • The 85 L drum gives the laundry room to move.

What customers don't like about Candy RPW41496BWMBC-S

  • The spin reaches 80 dB, which is loud at the end of a cycle.
  • A combined wash and dry uses 510 kWh per 100 cycles.
  • Each wash uses 56 L of water.
  • A combined cycle can run for 596 min, almost ten hours.
  • At 68.1 cm deep it needs room behind it.

Verdict

The Candy RPW41496BWMBC-S suits homes that do a lot of laundry and need big loads done in one go. It washes 14 kg and dries 9 kg, and the 85 L drum gives the laundry plenty of room to move. Its 16 washing programs are the main strength, and Bluetooth is an uncommon extra. The wash is quiet at 52 dB, but the spin reaches 80 dB, so it is louder when the water comes out. The real trade-off is running cost: a combined wash and dry uses 510 kWh per 100 cycles and can take 596 min. It is 68.1 cm deep, so check the space behind the machine before you buy. It suits a family that washes large loads often and mostly runs a wash without drying.
