Third-party reviews

What we like about Whirlpool BWE8127XWVFR

  • 17 washing programs give plenty of choice.
  • Shirt, wool and gentle cycles look after delicate clothes.
  • The 59.4 cm width and 84.5 cm height suit a standard kitchen gap.
  • Anti-stain and foam control help with messy loads.
  • The time remaining indicator shows how long a cycle still has to run.
  • Two programs finish in under an hour.

What we don't like about Whirlpool BWE8127XWVFR

  • The spin reaches 79 dB, so it is loud at the end of a cycle.
  • At 63 cm deep it needs more room than a shallow machine.
  • There is no Wi-Fi, which many newer machines include.
  • Spin-drying class C leaves clothes damper than class B does.
  • Its 8 kg capacity means a big family needs more loads.

Verdict

A choice of 17 washing programs is the main draw of the Whirlpool BWE8127XWVFR, a mid-range washer for a small household. Its 8 kg drum suits a couple or a small family, and the 59.4 cm width and 84.5 cm height fit a standard kitchen gap. Shirt, wool and gentle cycles handle clothes that need care, and two programs finish in under an hour. Anti-stain and foam control help with messy loads, and a self-cleaning function keeps the drum fresh. The trade-offs are noise and depth. The spin reaches 79 dB, and at 63 cm deep it needs more room than some. There is also no Wi-Fi, which many newer machines include. It suits a small household that wants careful cycles and a machine that fits a standard kitchen gap.
