Not Dated
Lab test · Shallow 7kg washer
Verdict
The Hisense WF1G7021BW is a 7kg front loader only 46.9 cm deep, suiting tight spaces, but it lacks delicate and hand-wash programmes and leak protection.

Third-party reviews

What we like about Hisense WF1G7021BW

  • 37 L of water per cycle is low for a 7 kg load.
  • The inverter motor drives the drum directly, with no belts.
  • Only 47 cm deep, so it fits tight spaces.
  • Steam and extra-rinse programmes help freshen laundry.
  • Wool and Baby Care programmes are included.
  • The self-cleaning function helps keep the drum fresh.
  • Pause and add lets you add a forgotten item mid-cycle.

What we don't like about Hisense WF1G7021BW

  • The fastest cycle takes 30 min, so there is no real quick wash.
  • There is no delicate or hand-wash programme for fragile clothes.
  • No water leak protection, which matters for a machine left running.
  • No dark-clothes or jeans programme.
  • At 59 kg it is hard to move.

Verdict

Shallow at 47 cm, the Hisense WF1G7021BW suits a small flat where a deep machine would not fit. It holds 7 kg and uses only 37 L of water per cycle, which suits a home that washes daily. The 51 kWh per 100 cycles is modest too, and the inverter motor drives the drum directly, with no belt to wear out. The fastest cycle takes 30 min, so there is no quick wash for a few shirts. Steam, wool and Baby Care programmes cover most of a family's laundry, and the 59 kg weight keeps it steady on the spin. It has no delicate or hand-wash programme and no water leak protection, so check those before you buy. It is a sensible budget pick for a small home with daily washing. Pause and add helps when you forget a sock.
