What we like about Haier HW80-B12636N-IB Series 636

  • 46 kWh per 100 cycles keeps the energy bill low.
  • Water use of 43 L per cycle keeps water bills down.
  • Washing noise of 53 dB stays quiet during the wash.
  • A delayed start of up to 24 hours lets you use off-peak power.
  • The motor warranty is 99 years, which is unusually long.
  • The child lock blocks all buttons, so small hands cannot change a cycle.

What we don't like about Haier HW80-B12636N-IB Series 636

  • The rinse can leave soap in clothes, which is poor for sensitive skin.
  • A cotton cycle used about 1.11 kWh in tests, which is a lot of power.
  • There is no pre-wash cycle for very dirty laundry.
  • There is no Wi-Fi or app, so it cannot be started from a phone.
  • There is no automatic dosing, so you measure detergent each time.

Verdict

The Haier HW80-B12636N-IB Series 636, with an 8 kg capacity, is class A energy-efficient, using 46 kWh per 100 cycles and only 43 litres of water per cycle. The Direct Motion motor, operating without belts, delivers quiet performance at 67 dB during spinning and enhances durability. It offers 16 specialised programs, including Baby Care and Hygiene cycles, as well as AquaProtect+ with a double-wall hose for leak protection. Steam technology adds to its effectiveness. Downsides include a limited spin speed of 1200 rpm, only 10 advanced features, and missing options like a load balancing system, smart diagnosis, self-cleaning, Pause & Add, and pre-wash cycles.
