Third-party reviews

What we like about Candy CBW 49D1W4-80

  • 16 washing programs cover a wide range of laundry.
  • At 82 cm high it fits under a worktop.
  • A 9 kg capacity handles a family's weekly load.
  • A 1400 RPM spin gets clothes fairly dry.
  • The pause and add option lets you add a forgotten item mid-wash.
  • Pre-wash and foam control help with heavily soiled, soapy loads.

What we don't like about Candy CBW 49D1W4-80

  • Washing and spinning both reach 77 dB, which is loud in a kitchen.
  • There is no inverter motor, a real gap at this price.
  • There is no extra rinse function for extra-soapy loads.
  • No Wi-Fi, so the machine cannot be run from a phone.
  • Energy use of 57 kWh per 100 cycles adds up over a year of daily washing.

Verdict

Height is the first thing that sets the Candy CBW 49D1W4-80 apart. At 82 cm high it can fit under a worktop, so it suits a tight kitchen. At 65.5 kg it stays put during the spin. It has 16 washing programs and a 9 kg capacity, enough for a family's weekly load. A 1400 RPM spin gets clothes fairly dry, and the pre-wash and foam control handle muddy or soapy loads. A fast function and a pause and add option let you add a forgotten sock mid-wash. The trade-off is noise and the motor: there is no inverter motor, a real gap at this price, and washing and spinning both reach 77 dB. It suits a buyer who needs a practical machine for a tight space and can live with the noise.
