What we like about Beko WMY 71643 PTLE

  • Sixteen programs cover everything from wool to baby clothes.
  • The 1600 RPM spin, with six speeds, leaves clothes drier.
  • The inverter motor comes with a 10-year warranty.
  • Washing noise is 51 dB, so the machine is quiet during the wash.
  • The refresh cycle freshens clothes that were worn only briefly.
  • A delay start of up to 24 h lets it run while you are out or asleep.

What we don't like about Beko WMY 71643 PTLE

  • At 73 kg it is hard to move for cleaning behind it.
  • Spin noise reaches 75 dB, so the final spin is loud.
  • The ECO cycle takes 205 min, a long wait for a full load.
  • Annual energy use of 171 kWh is the weak spot.

Verdict

Choice is the main point of the Beko WMY 71643 PTLE, a budget pick with 16 programs, a 7 kg drum and a 1600 RPM spin. Clothes come out fairly dry, so less drying is needed. The 10-year motor warranty is a long promise for a machine at this price. Hygiene, baby care, wool and refresh cycles cover most laundry, and the refresh cycle is handy for a shirt worn only once. Washing is quiet at 51 dB, but the spin reaches 75 dB, so the last part of the wash is loud. At 73 kg it is a heavy machine to move, and the ECO cycle takes 205 min. It suits a family that wants many programs and a fast spin and does not mind a long eco wash or a loud final spin.
