  • The spin runs at 75 dB, which is loud.

  • A combined cycle uses 307 kWh per 100 cycles, against 47 kWh for washing alone.
  • The combined energy class is D.
  • The door hinges on the left and cannot be reversed.

Verdict

Spin and dry both run at 75 dB, which is the main limit of the Whirlpool FFWDB 864369 BV SPT. It is a freestanding model with an 8 kg wash and a 6 kg dry, and a built-in display shows the settings. A washing cycle can run up to 215 min, and there are 14 programs to choose from. The trade-off is energy, with 307 kWh per 100 wash and dry cycles, which puts the combined class at D. Water use is 65 L for a wash and dry, and an inverter motor drives the drum. At 54 cm deep, it sits neatly in a standard floor space. It suits a buyer who wants one machine for washing and drying and can live with a noisy spin and dry.
