Third-party reviews

What customers like about Asko W2084W Classic

  • Energy use of 47 kWh per 100 cycles keeps running costs down.
  • The inverter motor is covered for 10 years.
  • Nine temperature settings and 16 programs suit most fabrics.
  • Automatic dosing measures the detergent for you.
  • Spin up to 1400 RPM leaves clothes fairly dry.
  • Anti-vibration design keeps the machine steady during spin.

What customers don't like about Asko W2084W Classic

  • At 75 kg it is hard to move on your own.
  • The door opens only to 110 degrees, which makes loading awkward.
  • Even the quickest cycle takes 30 min.
  • There is no outdoor or sport cycle for sports kit.
  • Spin noise reaches 72 dB, which is noticeable during the final spin.

Verdict

The Asko W2084W Classic is an 8 kg washing machine with an A energy class and low energy consumption of 47 kWh per 100 cycles. The Dose Assist system automatically adjusts detergent amounts based on parameters such as load size and water hardness. The machine features 16 wash programs and includes Aqua Safe for leak prevention, Pro Wash for enhanced water circulation at the top of the drum, and the ability to save 4 personalised programs. The Green Mode optimises water and energy usage. However, it lacks steam technology, as well as specific cycles for outdoor wear, sportswear, hygiene, and allergens. The absence of a load balancing system, self-diagnostics, and a door opening angle limited to 110 degrees are additional drawbacks. The Asko W2084W Classic is efficient with solid basic features but lacks specialised programs and advanced functions.
