    The first number in the "Best rankings" table above indicates the product's rank among all products in our database, while the second number (in brackets) represents its rank among available products only. | The "average product" rating mentioned below reflects the median values calculated across all attributes for products within this category.

    Verdict

    Candy Smart Inverter CSWS 496TWMRRE balances strong energy efficiency with advanced features, using only 49 kWh per 100 wash cycles and offering 21 smart functions including steam, voice control, and automatic load detection. Its 9 kg wash and 6 kg dry capacity suit medium-sized households, while technologies like Mix Power System+ improve cleaning performance with up to 60% energy savings. The machine remains quiet during drying at just 51 dB, but washing and spinning reach 62 dB and 78 dB respectively, which may be noticeable in quiet environments. It lacks Wi-Fi and some convenience extras like an anti-crease or extra rinse function. Despite a short 2-year motor warranty and average noise class, it provides reliable performance, smart connectivity via NFC, and a guided wash assistant that simplifies cycle selection.
