LG 7kg Direct Drive F1456QD Washing Machine Freestanding White

This LG motor is one of the best on the market being quieter, more efficient and longer lasting than the majority of washing machine motors. To prove it, this machine comes with a 10 year warranty. It’s so reliable because the drum is moved by magnets, rather than the traditional belt and pulley system, reducing vibrations and wear and tear.

Cleverly, this washing machine weighs the amount you’re washing, and tells you how heavy it is. So you can adjust the amount of detergent you’re using. By never using too much you won’t run out quickly and can spend the pennies you save on something slightly more exciting than detergent. The machine adjusts the amount of water used for the wash, so not a drop is wasted – great if you’re on a water metre.

Using this machine is made much easier as it has a bright, easy-to-read screen and LED instructions. Instead of being overwhelmed with tons of functions and programmes, they’re all set out clearly for you to follow.

There’s lots of programmes to make your washing easier, the synthetics, wool and cottons washes give you options for different types of fabrics. The Blanket and Bulky programmes are great for your towels and bedding. Or, for your bras and underwear, the Delicates programme makes sure they don’t get misshapen or damaged.

If you need to get a few items clean quickly, then the 30 minute Quick Wash is really helpful. It’ll have your clothes smelling fresh and clean in time for a night out, or a romantic meal in.

This washing machine even has an impressive A+ energy rating helping save you money on your water and energy bill – you’ll be doing your bit for the planet too.

"Very good buy"

Pros: built to last

Cons: only con is water intake and drainage bit noisy

"We purchased this washing machine after looking at many other makes and models. What eventually attracted us to this machine was the direct drive (i.e, very quiet) and the compact size. Its like a tardis - small on the outside but with a 7kg drum on the inside!! It is very solid and has a 10 year guarantee on the direct drive. We are very pleased with this purchase and love the tune it makes at the start and end of each wash cycle and the fact it even turns itself of. The count down timer is also very handy when planning your day!"

"Superb Washing Machine"

Pros: Value for money, Easy to use, Good build quality, Quiet, looks good

"I have always bought German engineeered white goods which have always proven reliable and efficient. My last two washing machines have been AEG and both lasted more than 12 years without any repairs needed. Having read numerous reviews for the LG and my AEG having just expired I thought I would try the LG. I would have had to pay almost 3 times more for the equivalent AEG, so economics played a part!

I have had the LG now for over a month and it has been amazing. Washes beautifully and in an almost silent process! The only noise is during fill up when you can hear the water rushing into the drum. The machine itself is extremely simple to use and much quicker than my AEG although to be fair the AEG was almost 14 years old. If the machine lasts for this period I will be delighted. However at the price of the AEG or other German equivalent........ 4 years is payback. If you are a German engineering fan and hesitant, don't be! The LG is excellent in performance and value and with a 7kg drum capacity and 1800 spin you can handle a lot of (very dry after spin) washing."

"Pretty good start"

Pros: Quiet, Easy to use, Good build quality, Value for money

"Big improvement over our previous machine (Bosch L86819 - noisy and difficult to keep clean inside drum).

Pretty quiet but has a different type of noise due to the direct drive motor - more of a hum than a belt whine.

You can carry on a conversation in the same room while the machine is running.

Much better."
