Verdict

The Electrolux EW7W396B PerfectCare 700 freestanding washer-dryer delivers premium fabric care with a nine-kilogram washing drum and a six-kilogram condensation drying capacity. Driven by an energy-efficient permanent magnet inverter motor, it operates with a high-speed 1600 RPM spin that emits 76 decibels during extraction. It achieves energy class A in washing alone with a consumption of 49 kilowatt-hours per hundred cycles and class E in combined operations with 376 kilowatt-hours. The DualCare system automatically adapts temperature and drum movements to specific fabric types, while SensiCare sensors adjust cycle duration to garment load weight. Garments benefit from SteamCare technology with FreshScent, which reduces wrinkles by up to a third and refreshes delicate items without full washing. Equipped with a 24-hour delay start, Pause and Add flexibility, and a child lock, it ensures exceptional domestic laundry performance.
