What we don't like about Siemens WG46B2070 iQ700

  • At 82.8 kg it is very heavy to move.
  • The ECO cycle takes 229 min, nearly four hours.
  • Only 13 washing programmes, so the choice is smaller.

Verdict

The Siemens WG46B2070 iQ700 is a 9 kg smart washing machine that combines powerful performance with advanced technology. This A-rated energy-efficient model uses 49 kWh per 100 cycles and features an impressive 1600 RPM maximum spin speed with seven different spin options. The machine runs quietly at 49 dB during washing and 71 dB during spinning, while its spacious 65-liter drum handles large loads effectively. Smart features include Wi-Fi connectivity through the Home Connect app, which enables voice control via Amazon Alexa or Google Home, remote diagnostics, and personalized cycle recommendations. The machine includes specialized programs like PowerSpeed 59' and Super 15'/30' for quick washes, plus dedicated cycles for jeans and shirts. Additional features include AquaStop protection, an interior light, VarioSpeed for reducing cycle times by up to 60%, and a Mini Load option for smaller laundry loads. The anti-vibration design and Water Plus function enhance washing performance. While comprehensive in features, the machine has 13 washing programs, which is slightly fewer than typical, lacks an allergen cycle, and has a longer ECO cycle duration of 229 minutes. At 82.8 kg, it's also notably heavier than standard models.
