Quite simply, as the title itself suggests: thrift and noise.
You get used to so much of the hum of the washing machine, I was amazed at how quiet it may be a washing machine. Friends have a relatively new Miele machine- which is very quiet, but our Siemens is even quieter. You can actually run and 2 meters into the bath anyway. Sure, during the spin cycle, it is a bit noisy, but then it sounds more like a modern aircraft with whispers actuator works. The classic spin noise does not occur.
Thrift:
Even at maximum fill level and 60 degrees wash temperature, the machine with 0.85 kWh in the standard program is still well below one kilowatt-hour consumption. This value is a gigantic value in the context of power-hungry predecessor (1.5-1.9).
Guzzlers is and remains the temperature. At partial load and 40 degrees one is around 00:45 kilowatt hours. Measured with a simple measuring device from the Internet home.
Thoroughness:
During the first test runs all the clothes were clean. The Nutella stains on the yellow pajamas tolpatischen my husband. The laundry is not more or less wrinkled when I knew it from the old device.
The capacity is 7 kg for a four-person household is more than sufficient, I think.
The device itself is rather classical nature. No exaggerated Ender frills, but solid construction offers the ultimate long-term suitability. As emergency parachute we booked a warranty extension.
I would recommend the device in good conscience continue. Should you have any questions about the machine have this behind let love in the comments.
Have fun while washing.
