Verdict

The Beko WTY101486S b300 is a modern washing machine with excellent environmental credentials. Energy class A combines with low consumption of 51 kWh per 100 cycles and minimal water usage of 38 litres per cycle. SteamCure technology tackles stains during pre-wash for effective cleaning and reduced creases. Bluetooth connectivity allows preferred settings to be saved via an app, while the AquaStop feature maintains safety against leaks. Internal lighting simplifies loading and unloading. Downsides include significant dimensions with a depth of 64 cm and a weight of 72 kg. The limited number of programs (14) includes only one quick cycle, and the ECO program takes 238 minutes. The Beko WTY101486S b300 is an excellent choice for those seeking energy efficiency and smart functionality, provided space is not an issue.
