After I left after 15.5 years my faithful machine, needed a new one. Important for me was a quick wash program (here super15), 1400 rpm, reload and Aqua stop. After much to and fro requests I have decided for the Siemens iQ300. Reasons: The price was due to momentary Washer Discount offer from Amazon to my limit, the washing machine has offered what I was looking for and also provides a few extras (blouses / shirting and outdoor program; very handy for sportswear). What to say much. The washing machine washes as it should, is rock solid on a pedestal in the basement and is very easy to use. The noise during washing are completely under and almost silent. My old washing machine had as much more to offer. However, the noise level is not without during the spin cycle. As already described in some recessions, the engine whistles to your 1400 revolutions. Even with only 600 revolutions this pipe is not to be missed. As my washing machine is in the basement, do not bother me and I get a floor above with nothing of. And since I'm completely satisfied with the washing result, the handling and the programs, I keep the machine. If I could stand, however, the machine in the apartment, the noise would be an absolute no-go for me. With regard to the delivery by Hermes: Perfect and very friendly staff !! Delivery window was 7-11 clock. At 9 clock, the phone rang at 9:30 clock and the staff on site were. Old machine and packing was taken and attached the new machine. After a quick check to see if everything worked, the two men said goodbye again. That's how it should be!
