Third-party reviews

What customers like about Siemens WN54C2A40

  • A 10.5 kg washing capacity takes a big load of bedding in one go.
  • Spin noise of 70 dB keeps the room calm during a spin.
  • An inverter motor helps keep energy use down.
  • The automatic dosing system measures the detergent for each load.
  • The fast cycle takes just 15 min for a small load.
  • Wi-Fi lets you start and check the machine from your phone.

What customers don't like about Siemens WN54C2A40

  • The longest cycle runs for 240 min, so a heavy program takes most of an afternoon.
  • At 62.2 cm deep it needs room in a small laundry.
  • The dryer takes 6 kg, well below the 10.5 kg washing load.
  • Combined wash and dry cycles only reach energy class D.
  • Each combined cycle uses 75 L of water.

Verdict

10.5 kg of washing fits into the Siemens WN54C2A40, a washer-dryer for households that do laundry every day. Spin noise is low at 70 dB, so it can run while you are in the next room. An inverter motor and an A rating for washing keep the energy use down, and the condenser dryer dries up to 6 kg. The dosing system measures detergent for you, and the soak function and interior light are rare extras on this kind of machine. The trade-off is time: the longest cycle runs for 240 min, and at 62.2 cm deep it needs room in a small laundry. It suits a big household that washes most days and wants one machine for a quick wash and an occasional full dry.
