Third-party reviews

What customers like about Willow WWD8514WH

  • Fifteen washing programs cover different fabrics and needs.
  • An 8 kg wash takes a full load in one go.
  • At 52 cm deep it fits a narrow space.
  • Water use of 46 L per wash is modest.
  • The 1400 RPM spin removes plenty of water before drying.
  • Pause and add lets you add an item after the wash starts.

What customers don't like about Willow WWD8514WH

  • The dryer takes only 5 kg, so big loads need splitting.
  • There is no interior light for checking the drum.
  • There is no automatic drawer cleaning, so the drawer must be wiped by hand.
  • There is no power-save mode.

Verdict

Fifteen washing programs give the Willow WWD8514WH plenty of choice. It takes 8 kg of washing and dries 5 kg, which suits a couple or a small family. At 52 cm deep, it suits a narrow utility room. Water use is 46 L per wash, and the 1400 RPM spin removes plenty of water before drying. The self-cleaning cycle and unbalanced load detection help keep the machine in shape. Pause and add and a delay start of up to 24 h make it easy to fit around a busy day. The trade-off is the dryer: 5 kg is small, so a full 8 kg wash has to be split for drying. It suits a buyer who wants a wide choice of wash programs in a narrow space and does not need a big dryer.
