Third-party reviews

What customers like about Hisense WD5I1245BWR

  • A 12 kg wash and 8 kg dry suit a large household.
  • Washing uses 32 kWh per 100 washing cycles, which keeps everyday washing efficient.
  • 20 wash programs give a wide choice.
  • Auto dosing sets the amount of detergent for each load.
  • The steam function helps reduce creases.
  • At 84.5 cm high it suits a gap under a counter.

What customers don't like about Hisense WD5I1245BWR

  • Combined cycles use 370 kWh per 100 cycles, so drying is power-hungry.
  • Each combined cycle uses 94 L of water.
  • A combined cycle can run up to 599 min.
  • Washing noise is 72 dB, enough to hear in a quiet room.
  • There is no prewash option.

Verdict

Twelve kg of washing and 8 kg of drying make the Hisense WD5I1245BWR a good fit for a large household. Washing is efficient, at 32 kWh per 100 washing cycles, and each wash uses 45 L of water. It has 20 wash programs and five drying programs, plus Wi-Fi for checking cycles on a phone. Auto dosing puts in the right amount of detergent, and a steam function helps with creases. At 84.5 cm high it suits a gap under a counter. The trade-off is combined cycles, which use 94 L of water and 370 kWh per 100 cycles, and the longest runs 599 min. Prewash is missing too. It suits a family that washes most days and can live with long combined runs.
