    The first number in the "Best rankings" table above indicates the product's rank among all products in our database, while the second number (in brackets) represents its rank among available products only. | The "average product" rating mentioned below reflects the median values calculated across all attributes for products within this category.

    Verdict

    The Russell Hobbs RH612W110W is a compact 6 kg washing machine with a 1200 RPM spin speed and D energy rating. It has comprehensive temperature control and practical wash programs including a dedicated jeans cycle and colors program. The ECO cycle completes in 191 minutes, which saves 27 minutes compared to average duration on the market.. The machine features an anti-vibration system with a boomerang body design and inverter motor for quieter operation. Its dimensions are optimized for space efficiency, with a notably smaller depth of 49.7 cm and reduced weight of 62.5 kg. However, the machine lacks several advanced features found in similar models. The manufacturer does not specify any special drum design for fabric care, and the machine operates without steam technology, foam control, or self-cleaning capabilities. It also misses convenience features like Pause & Add functionality and anti-crease treatment. The 1200 RPM maximum spin speed falls 200 RPM below typical specifications, and there is no dedicated anti-stain cycle available.
