What we like about Bauknecht WMT Star 6ZB

  • Noise emission class A means a quieter wash.
  • 17 programs include anti-stain and anti-crease settings.
  • 43 L of water per cycle keeps water use down.
  • The AquaStop system protects the floor from leaks.
  • The time remaining indicator shows when the wash ends.
  • The soft-opening door and automatic drum positioning make loading easier.

What we don't like about Bauknecht WMT Star 6ZB

  • The 6 kg drum is small for a family.
  • The fastest cycle takes 30 min, so a quick wash is not quick.
  • At 90 cm high it is tall for a low space.
  • Spin noise of 72 dB is still loud enough to hear from another room.

Verdict

Quiet running and 17 programs make the Bauknecht WMT Star 6ZB a good match for a flat with thin walls. Each wash uses 43 L of water, and the ECO program takes 195 min. At 56 kg it stays put on the spin, and the pause option lets you check a load mid-cycle. The 6 kg drum is small for a family, and the fastest cycle takes 30 min. Its 17 programs include anti-stain and anti-crease settings, and the time remaining indicator tells you when the wash ends. The soft-opening door and automatic drum positioning make loading and unloading easier, and the AquaStop system protects the floor from leaks. It suits a single person or a couple who want a quiet, well-equipped machine for everyday washes.
