What we like about Hisense WF5I8043BWF

  • A 47 cm depth fits into a small kitchen.
  • 33 kWh per 100 cycles keeps power use low.
  • 38 L of water per cycle keeps water bills down.
  • Four programs finish in under an hour.
  • A motor warranty of 20 years gives long cover.
  • Pause and add lets you slip in a forgotten item mid-wash.

What we don't like about Hisense WF5I8043BWF

  • The 72 dB spin is loud in a small room.
  • No automatic dosing, so detergent is measured by hand.
  • At 61 kg it is heavy to move on your own.
  • An 8 kg drum is small for big family washes.
  • Wi-Fi and Smart Pairing need an app set up first.

Verdict

At 47 cm deep, the Hisense WF5I8043BWF suits a small kitchen or a narrow utility space where a standard washer would stick out. It takes 8 kg of laundry, which is plenty for a couple or a small family. Running costs are the real strength: 33 kWh per 100 cycles and 38 L of water per cycle keep bills down. Four programs finish in under an hour. The motor warranty of 20 years is a long promise. Pause and add lets you slip in a forgotten sock mid-wash. Wi-Fi and Smart Pairing link it to a phone, and an interior light helps you see the drum. The trade-off is the 72 dB spin, which is loud in a small room. It suits someone short on space who wants low running costs and a long warranty.
