How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves.
Weighting: Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Share: Too few models in this category have enough reviews yet, so reviews are shown but do not count in the overall score.

Third-party reviews

What we like about Hoover THOSQ275D3-S

  • 41 cm width fits a narrow gap in a small kitchen.
  • 16 programs include gentle, anti-allergy and hygiene cycles.
  • It uses 42 L of water per cycle, a modest amount for a 7 kg load.
  • At 57 kg it is manageable for one person to move.
  • Steam helps freshen clothes and ease creases.
  • Anti-vibration design keeps the machine steadier during a spin.

What we don't like about Hoover THOSQ275D3-S

  • Spin noise of 79 dB can be heard through a wall.
  • Energy class C and 59 kWh per 100 cycles mean higher running costs.
  • The 46 L drum is a squeeze for duvets and bulky items.
  • At 86 cm high it may not fit under a standard worktop.

Verdict

At 41 cm wide, the Hoover THOSQ275D3-S suits a small flat where every spare centimeter counts. It takes 7 kg of washing, and its 16 programs include a gentle, an anti-allergy and a hygiene cycle. Steam and a laundry detection system add extra care, and Wi-Fi and Bluetooth let you start a wash from a phone. The trade-off is running cost and noise. It is energy class C, using 59 kWh per 100 cycles, and the spin reaches 79 dB, so it is noticeable in a quiet flat. The drum holds only 46 L, and at 86 cm high it may not slide under a standard worktop. It suits a couple who want a slim machine for regular loads and can live with a louder spin.
