Verdict

Gorenje WDAM 854 AP runs efficiently with just 47 kWh for 100 wash cycles and uses just 42 liters of water per wash, making it more economical than most models in its class. Includes helpful features like Power JetWash for effective stain removal, SteamTech to reduce creases and odors, and SterilTub to maintain hygiene. The brushless inverter motor ensures quieter operation and is covered by a 10-year warranty. With 13 washing programs and 4 drying cycles, it adapts to different laundry needs, although the capacity of 8 kg for washing and 5 kg for drying may be limited for large families. Some useful features are missing, such as the foam control system, the extra rinse and the anti-stain function. It also lacks advanced connectivity and memory features. Despite this, it remains a solid choice for those who pay attention to energy consumption and fabric care.
