What we like about Haier HW70-B12636N Series 636

  • A 55 L drum takes everyday loads with room to spare.
  • 16 washing programs give plenty of choice for different fabrics.
  • AquaStop helps guard against leaks from the hose.
  • The wash runs at 53 dB, quiet enough for an evening cycle.
  • Energy class A and 47 kWh per 100 cycles keep power use low.
  • The motor is covered for 99 years.

What we don't like about Haier HW70-B12636N Series 636

  • There is no pre-wash cycle to loosen dirt first.
  • There is no self-cleaning function for the drum.
  • There is no Wi-Fi, so it cannot be started from a phone.
  • A 7 kg drum means big bedding and large family loads need two runs.
  • The spin is 67 dB, the louder part of a cycle.

Verdict

Haier HW70-B12636N Series 636 is a compact 7 kg washing machine that excels in energy efficiency with its A-rated performance and low 47 kWh consumption per 100 cycles. The machine runs exceptionally quietly at 67 dB during spinning and uses only 41 L of water per cycle. It features a lifetime motor warranty and includes useful programs like Baby Care, Jeans, and Express 15 min among its 16 washing programs. The AquaProtect+ system provides enhanced water protection through a double-walled hose and floor tray, while the Speed up Function allows for faster wash cycles. The machine has a 51 cm depth, making it suitable for smaller spaces. The ECO cycle completes in 206 minutes. Some limitations include a lower 1200 RPM maximum spin speed, smaller 7 kg capacity, and the absence of self-cleaning and Pause & Add features. The machine includes 10 advanced features such as foam control and unbalanced load detection, but lacks steam technology and a pre-wash cycle.
