Most of the programmes take hours to run, and I don't want to waste water and electricity in this way. The shortest cycles are: Silks & Delicates (55 mins) but this cycle doesn't spin; or Express Wash & Dry (30 mins), but 5 mins of this is used for tumble drying which is not required in the summer and leaves the laundry damp anyway. There is no user manual. I was left with a "Quick Guide" comprising of 4 pages with no real instructions on how to actually use the machine. I had to call Indesit and a helpful young woman talked me through the programmes. We worked out together that the only programmes I can actually use are the two I named above. The digital displays are confusing – they use a series of numbers and letters that don't mean anything. You have to look them up in the so-called quick guide, which (ironically) isn't quick at all! The tumble dryer is very difficult to work out. The woman from Indesit told me which buttons to press in order to just use just the dryer. Again, no instructions are given in the "quick" guide. Although it washes my laundry OK, I'm very disappointed with the machine overall. It has all these cycles which I won't be using (because of their duration), and figuring out how to use it has been extremely stressful. They've made a simple concept incredibly complicated. What a waste of time – on so many levels.

Great washer dryer, we had a small space to fit it in and it was the perfect size, all ground good product.

Lovely washer dryer. Much easier to use than I thought when I saw it out of the packing!!! And I love the way it tells you exactly how long the wash will take. Very pleased with my buy!

Awful washing machine, takes minimum of 6 hours to wash and dry. Indesit customer services are unhelpful. the machine all of a sudden turned of mid cycle, and no help whatsoever from Indesit . not the quietest machine. Also consumes alot of electric when ran.

So the machine itself is fine. Like most washer driers it is best when you do a separate wash and the dry cycle, if you try to use the function that does one then the other the clothes are still soaking. However, used separately, each function is fine, if a bit slow. Also be aware that any ao.com purchase appears to be followed up by a couple of calls from people telling you how rubbish the product is, how likely it is to break and that you'd better buy the monthly warranty because you are so likely to need it!

Not great. Impossible to get anything dry in it unless you have it running for 12 hours. I suppose you get what you pay for and it was a cheaper option.

Brilliant! Got this washer dryer for my elderly parents when there washer gave up. They previously had to go out to the garage to use the tumble dryer now it's all in one in the kitchen and does the job perfectly!
