    Verdict

    Hoover H-WASH&DRY 500 HD495AMC focuses on efficiency and smart control, with low energy use of 49 kWh per 100 washes and a wide set of 13 washing programs. Its 9 kg washing and 5 kg drying capacity suit medium-sized households, and the Eco-Power Motor ensures reliable performance with reduced wear. Intelligent features like KG Mode Plus and Active Balance help manage resources and maintain fabric care, while the Power Care System improves detergent effectiveness. Wi-Fi connectivity with the hOn app adds remote control, extra programs, and label scanning. Steam and anti-crease functions reduce ironing time, and the 14-minute quick wash adds flexibility. Though it runs quietly during washing at 51 dB, the spin cycle is louder at 77 dB. It lacks a special drum design and AquaStop protection, and the drying capacity might feel limited for large laundry loads.
