"Generally very pleased with this machine. Lovely big drum and door, easy to use. Very good range of programmes, quiet spin. Only disadvantage is that the highest speed spin on a synthetics or mixed fabrics programmes is 1000, I would prefer to be able to change that to a higher speed (the machine spin speed goes up to 1600.) but there is no option to overide it. Overall excellent value for money, Beko was recommended to us by an electrical appliance repair man as the best budget buy, he said they hardly ever go wrong."
