If I could give this a zero I would…

Basically the drier function is non existent! After trying 4 different ways I gave up and dried the traditional way after wasting a lot of time. There should be a class action against Ariston for making such a dud machine. One for Choice lemon award that’s for sure! Luckily I don’t own this machine and it was in an apartment is rented or it would have been thrown in the tip. Seems I am not the only one either….do NOT buy.

NOT a dryer - don't buy this machine for the drying function!

Washing cycle is fine on this machine, but the dryer function is pathetic. This unit was in our apartment, so there was no instruction manual, but you shouldn't need to read a manual to operate a washing machine or dryer. The settings are all just a bunch of confusing icons, and there's no way to determine what their functionalities are. Just start it on one that looks promising and see what it does, then try another one. Ended up spreading our clothes out on furniture and drying them under a ceiling fan overnight.

Junk - DO NOT BUY!!!

- The Wash function is all good
- The Dry function is completely useless, you can set it on the 4:15 hours drying cycle & the clothes are still completely wet. To dry three towels I have to have to run it three times consecutively for a total of close to 13 hours drying..... it's just crazy

The apartment building where I live has these Washers/Dryers as standard & I've had three of these over the years & each & every one has had the same problem Show details

I wouldn't want it if it was offered free

I've had this machine for just over 4 years.
I can't make sense of the icons and don't find the instructions very helpful.
Drying takes hours and it won't let you open the door to check the progress.
Now whenever I set it to program 4 and most of the time after I press start it switches to program 5. Show details

Doesn’t dry

Stayed in accommodation that has this washer dryer. Dried clothes for 4 hours and they are still sopping wet. This is the worst dryer ever there should be a class action since everyone has the same problem

Great washing machine - USELESS dryer

I’m perfectly satisfied with all the washing functions on this machine. It came with my 2 bed apartment & is ideal for that living situation. As there is limited space - it is installed in the kitchen. I was really excited to see it had a drying function too, as I thought that was clever on space-saving. However, after trying ALL the drying functions - none if them work. The washing comes out hot & damp. I end up with laundry hung all over the apartment on a clothes horse. So there’s no point. I wouldn’t recommend buying one of these for yourself - or putting it in your rental property. It will just drive you/your tenants mad.

Does not dry

This combo, a washer- dryer is poor on both fronts, when washing, and when drying. In our building, every apartment is serviced with this combo and not even one of us was able to successfully use the dryer function. The clothes are out of the machine warm and dump. pointless.

Best Washing Machine I have ever used. Love it

I bought the Ariston ARMF125 washing machine/dryer. I wash all sorts of clothing from delicates to very soiled clothing. The features and controls are fantastic - choosing which program you want and the temperature - It is just so easy to use. Where you put the washing liquid and fabric softener is a great compartment. It swings out wide so you can easily access it and you can remove it easily for further cleaning. I love the 15 minute cycle and the 30 minute cycle.
The fact that it is a washing machine/dryer is great as it has saved so much space in my new apartment in the laundry. I am really happy with this machine and would recommend it to anyone. Show details

Ariston 8kg Front loader Machine

When we decided to buy another washing machine I really wanted something easy to operate less water with a good star rating. After speaking to the sales lady Kate at Harvey Norman at Lakehaven NSW we where really surprised on the workmanship and the 5 year warranty. I'm really amazed on how clean my cloths are coming out …And happy with no movement and low noise .I've downsized from at 10 kilo to an 8kilo and that was my concern … But my washing amount has not changed and wow my queen size blanket washed amazingly. I'm really Happy with my Ariston Purchase.

Hi, I have an Ariston ARMF 125 Washer/Dryer Combo.
The wash cycles are ok but the dryer function has stopped working.
It will spin and get hot but the washing stays soaking wet.
Any advise on what might be causing this please ?

I used the dryer once and the sheets didn't dry at all. I have read that you do have to have the water tap on when drying. I normally turn the water off after washing in case of leaks and I flood the place.

I have just purchased a caravan that has an Ariston ARMF125 front load washer fitted. There is a warning label on it that says to make sure that you fit the drum stabiliser before travelling. Can someone tell me what is required please? because it is a major job to access the rear of the machine to fit stabiliser bolts.
