Verdict

The Hotpoint NWBT 1045 WDAD with a 10 kg capacity features the Active Care system, which creates a detergent mousse effective even at low temperatures, along with a Green option for up to 20% energy savings. Its 71-litre drum and inverter motor provide high performance, with six spin speeds reaching up to 1400 rpm. Steam technology includes a 20-minute Refresh cycle to freshen clothes without a complete wash. Limitations include the absence of essential protections such as overflow prevention and a load balancing system. The machine has high water consumption at 52 litres per cycle and lacks modern functions like smart diagnosis and self-cleaning. The program panel is limited to 14 cycles, excluding specific options like Outdoor/Sport. The lack of a special drum design further adds to its limitations.
