This Bosch model is the perfect size for smaller households or couples. The petit 5kg drum will wash 25 dry T-shirts and since your drying loads have to be smaller, it’ll get around 2.5kg of wet clothes – that’s around 8 wet T-shirts - ready for the ironing pile.

To save you time there’s a 15 minute quick wash to help out with small loads of 5 or 10 shirts – it’s really handy for school uniforms or sports kit that you might need cleaning in a hurry. The spray wash system uses jets of water to soak your clothes faster than normal washes – it’ll give you a more thorough wash and help you save time on your laundry too.

For the drying cycles this models has Bosch’s autoSensors which detect when your clothes are dry. It’ll cut off the heat when they’re done, so your fabrics won’t be damaged at all. You won’t have to keep nipping in and out of the kitchen either.

This model comes in white and holds 7kg of washing (35 dry T-shirts) and 5kg of drying (15 wet T-shirts), so it’ll easily deal with your family's weekly washing loads. It's simple and straightforward, but for an extremely affordable price, you're getting more than your fair share of features and cycles.

You'll easily protect your fabrics, so keeping cashmere and fine wool cardigans looking their best doesn't mean a long and expensive trip to the dry cleaners – in fact it has earned itself a Woolmark Platinum Care award. If you're in the office 5 days a week, the Shirt cycle takes the headache out of getting them fresh and pressed every morning. If you’re rushed off your feet the Ready to Wear cycle gets a small 1kg load washed and dried in an hour - just enough for a couple of outfits. Give the Anti Crease option a whirl and you'll even make the ironing easier too. Not bad eh?

At this fantastic price, I think this is real value for money.

If you’re looking for a model you can rely on, I think this is a brilliant choice. The 8kg drum means it’ll wash 40 T-shirts at once, and for drying it’ll take a 4kg load. That’s around 18 T-shirts, as your wet clothes need more room to move around. The 1400rpm spin speed will extract most of the water from your washing so it won't have to spend too long on a drying cycle. 

It comes with loads of features too, from the handwash that's really gentle on your 'handwash only' labelled items, to the 20 minute cycle- ideal for everyday essentials that need sprucing up. The delay start option is really cool too as you can set the machine to start when it suits you. 

What's really great about this machine is Fuzzy Logic. It senses how much washing you've got in the drum and adjusts its settings to suit. It means you won't use unnecessary water or energy- saving you money on your bills.

If you’re looking for a model you can rely on, I think this is a brilliant choice. The 6kg drum means it’ll wash 30 T-shirts at once, and for drying it’ll take a 4kg load. That’s around 12 T-shirts, as your wet clothes need more room to move around. The 1400rpm spin speed will extract most of the water from your washing so it won't have to spend too long on a drying cycle. 

It comes with 21 fantastic features too, from the handwash that's really gentle on your 'handwash only' labelled items, to the easy iron cycle. This keeps your wash moving and uses a cool down phase to stop deep creases forming, so you won't have to spend ages ironing. The delay start option is really cool too as you can set the machine to start when it suits you. 

The quick wash will come in handy if you're short on time as it'll get a small load washed in less than half an hour and there's even an eco wash if you want to save yourself some money.

If you’re looking for a model you can rely on, I think this LG is a brilliant choice. The Direct Drive motor is attached right on to the drum, so there are fewer parts. It’s more reliable and a lot quieter than normal models. The motor is guaranteed for up to 10 years, so you’re getting real peace of mind.

It’s 30% more efficient compared to a standard A rated model, which is how it’s earned an A+++ energy rating. You’ll make some decent savings on your laundry, which is even more impressive when you consider you’re getting your washing and drying done in one appliance. The 9kg drum means it’ll wash 45 T-shirts at once, and for drying it’ll take a 6kg load. That’s around 18 T-shirts, as your wet clothes need more room to move around.

To save you time, this LG also has a handy Quick Wash. It’ll get through a small load of 5 or 6 T-shirts in just 30 minutes. It’s extremely useful for getting a few pairs of jeans and a couple of T-shirts clean in a hurry.
