What we like about Candy Miniaqua CW50-BP12307G-S

  • Energy use of 39 kWh per 100 cycles keeps bills down.
  • A class A rating and an inverter motor work together.
  • Spin is quiet at 69 dB.
  • It uses 30 L of water per cycle.
  • An anti-crease function is included.
  • At 51 cm wide and 49 cm deep it suits a small space.

What we don't like about Candy Miniaqua CW50-BP12307G-S

  • Capacity is only 5 kg.
  • There are 12 washing programs.
  • At 47 kg it is heavy to move.
  • There is no pre-wash cycle.
  • Spin-drying efficiency is class C.

Verdict

The Candy Miniaqua CW50-BP12307G-S is a 5 kg washing machine with A-rated energy efficiency that excels in noise reduction, operating at just 51 dB during washing and 69 dB during spinning, earning it an A-rated noise emission class. The machine is notably efficient, using only 39 kWh per 100 cycles and 30 liters of water per cycle. Its 12 washing programs include specialized cycles for jeans, sportswear, and a quick 15-minute wash, plus essential programs like ECO 40-60, Cotton 20°C, Mixed & Colored, Synthetics, Delicates, Wool/Hand Wash, and Hygiene+. The ECO cycle completes 30 minutes faster than standard. At 47 kg, it's significantly lighter than comparable models. On the downside, the machine has a lower maximum spin speed of 1200 RPM, lacks steam technology and anti-stain capabilities, and provides fewer specialized programs compared to similar models. It also doesn't include pre-wash or allergen-specific cycles, and the minimum spin speed starts at 600 RPM, which might be too high for very delicate items.
