What we like about Candy CW50-BP12307U1-S

  • 39 kWh per 100 cycles keeps energy use low.
  • 31 L of water per cycle keeps water use down.
  • Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity are built in.
  • The self-cleaning function helps keep the machine fresh.
  • 51 cm wide and 48.8 cm deep suit a small kitchen.
  • The fastest cycle takes 15 min for a quick wash.

What we don't like about Candy CW50-BP12307U1-S

  • A 5 kg capacity is small for a family's wash.
  • There is no steam technology, so a quick freshen-up is not an option.
  • Spin-drying class C leaves clothes damp.
  • The 69 dB spin is noticeable in a quiet room.
  • Only 12 programs, so there are fewer choices for specialist fabrics.

Verdict

Small flats and rented kitchens are where the Candy CW50-BP12307U1-S makes most sense. It is 51 cm wide, 48.8 cm deep and 70 cm high, and at 47 kg it is light enough to shift for cleaning. Energy use is 39 kWh per 100 cycles and water use is 31 L per cycle, so it is kind to both power and water. The inverter motor, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are handy extras, and the self-cleaning function helps keep the machine fresh. The trade-off is the 5 kg drum, which is small for a full family wash, and there is no steam. The spin is only class C, so clothes come out damp, and the 12 programs cover the basics. It suits a single person or a couple with small loads who want a neat, connected machine.
