The product itself is excellent, performs well, looks good, was easy to connect and has a useful wifi facility.
However, installing it oneself is not a good idea, since the base panel requires bolting in. Presumably this is to allow removal of any of the transportation locking parts that may fall inside, but for a single elderly person - like myself! - manoeuvring the machine to accomplish this, ie turning it on its side, or preferably upside down, is not a simple matter.
Washing and drying are easy to programme and have worked smoothly since purchase. Recommended overall, but would suggest using AO’s installation option.
