Beko BM3WFU49411B front-load washing machine 9 kg

The Beko BM3WFU49411B front-loading washing machine handles 9 kg of dry laundry per cycle, a capacity that covers a family. Rated A on the European A to G scale, it posts an energy efficiency index of 51.5 for 49 kWh per year. Its EPREL record is publicly available under reference 1836324.

Water consumption is 49 litres per cycle and spin speed reaches 1,400 revolutions per minute, in class B. Spinning at that speed noticeably cuts the drying time that follows, on an airer as much as in a tumble dryer. Its fifteen programmes cover everyday laundry, delicate fabrics and quick cycles.

Its steam function relaxes fibres and reduces ironing, backed by IronFast technology designed for the same purpose. Adding laundry mid-cycle catches the forgotten sock, without having to restart a whole programme. Delayed start can be set up to 24 hours ahead, enough to line a cycle up with off-peak hours.

Its induction motor does without brushes, a wear part on conventional motors, which partly explains the durability index of 8.8 out of 10 published by Beko. The manufacturer keeps spare parts available for 15 years, one of the longest periods in the catalogue. The appliance weighs 70 kg for 84,5 x 60 x 54,6 cm, and the 15,42 € WEEE eco-contribution is included in the displayed price.
