Third-party reviews

What customers like about Candy RPW4856BWMUC-S

  • Sixteen wash programs give a good range of choice.
  • Combined cycles use 266 kWh per 100 cycles.
  • Bluetooth and a scan function help you choose a program.
  • The fastest wash takes 14 min.
  • Washing is class A, with 44 L of water per wash.
  • A steam function helps with creases.

What customers don't like about Candy RPW4856BWMUC-S

  • Spin noise is 76 dB, enough to notice from another room.
  • There is no AquaStop leak protection.
  • There are only three drying programs.
  • A combined cycle uses 75 L of water.
  • The 5 kg drying load is smaller than the 8 kg wash.

Verdict

Phone control is the hook of the Candy RPW4856BWMUC-S, and it is a practical pick for a small household. It washes 8 kg and dries 5 kg, with an inverter motor and class A washing. Each wash uses 44 L of water, and a combined cycle uses 75 L. Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and a scan function link the machine to your phone and help you find the right program. The fastest wash takes 14 min, and a steam function helps with creases. The trade-offs are spin noise at 76 dB and the lack of AquaStop leak protection. Drying is basic, with only three drying programs and a 5 kg drying load. It suits a buyer who wants a simple, phone-linked machine for everyday washing and does not mind a noisy spin.
