Third-party reviews

What we like about Hanseatic HWM-M6010SMD

  • At 40 cm deep it fits into narrow spaces.
  • It uses 43 L of water per cycle, a modest amount.
  • A hygiene cycle suits towels and bedding.
  • Pre-wash and extra rinse help with muddy laundry.
  • The fastest cycle takes 15 min.
  • A child lock keeps small hands off the controls.

What we don't like about Hanseatic HWM-M6010SMD

  • The 6 kg drum is small for a family's weekly wash.
  • The 1000 RPM spin and class C drying leave clothes wetter.
  • Spin noise of 80 dB and washing at 76 dB are loud in a kitchen.
  • There is no inverter motor, a feature buyers often look for.
  • Energy class D and 143 kWh a year make it costly to run.

Verdict

The main limit of the Hanseatic HWM-M6010SMD is its 6 kg drum, which is small for a family. The spin runs at 1000 RPM and reaches 80 dB, so clothes come out wetter and the spin is loud in a kitchen. Spin-drying is class C, and there is no inverter motor, a feature buyers often look for. The good news is the footprint. At 40 cm deep it fits into a narrow space where a deeper washer will not go. It uses 43 L of water per cycle, and pre-wash and extra rinse help with muddy laundry. One program finishes in under an hour. Annual energy use is 143 kWh/year with a class D rating, so running costs are higher. It suits one or two people in a small flat who wash lightly and need a slim machine.
