We have brought us this machine due to their low water and electricity consumption and after 5 months still completely satisfied with this machine. The washing machine is by its smaller external dimensions really narrow, so watch also in smaller areas, but no loss through these smaller dimensions. The drum size is more than adequate for our small budget and does not complain if they should be times repeatedly used. The application is self-explanatory and easy as pie a rotating wheel for the main programs, some additional services (Changing Schleuederzahl example) below the display and 4 more buttons next to the rotary knob (including the start button and the "short" program). The machine indicates how much electricity they consume. So you can at a higher power consumption even change the settings (in some programs is a shorter term selectable) in order to minimize energy consumption. However, we have never managed to achieve it the highest power level. The remaining time appears on the display. The machine does not beep when it is finished, however, since the remaining minutes are displayed and then "END" appears this is not necessary. After 15 minutes, the machine switches off automatically to save power. Other handling as well as other equipment.
We can recommend the machine after 5 months only continue. We bought it because of the low fuel consumption (Green Intelligence) and many possible eco-programs and were not disappointed. Only the supplied program overview is not perfect, here the text jumps in several places between German and English. No obstacle, but a bit annoying. The delivery of large appliances by Amazon did not run properly, including the device, yes, but nothing can :-)
