Bought 18 years ago and still working! – We are using it 2,3 x week for last 18 years. Still works fine. I have to say that i have never repaired it! Its simple, noisy but it does the job! The same for the Ariston boiler. Seems that Ariston deserves more respect! Show details

OK – Not really happy with this model. Had it for 2 years and it already needs replacing. Can't do small loads so not really economical even though it was cheap to buy. Low price, works well when new, can use cold water only, good size. No 1/2 load or fast cycle, very long cycle, noisy, bangs around and jumps across the floor even when leveled.

Terrible – This model is probably a bit old now, however it still works fine. Like others, Ariston was Harvey Norman recommended and other than noise and speed, no issues to date. However, I think there are better front loader machines available and I would not buy an Ariston againI Water consumption low. Washing comes our very clean. SLOW! SLOW! SLOW! Jumps about a great deal on spin. Front door locked once cycle has commenced.

Good – We got what we paid for with this machine and it does wash very well. Probably not the best choice if you require something a bit quicker or if you have kids and wash alot. Also, when we bought it, from a well known electrical/furniture shop, it had foreign connection point on it and we couldnt use it until it was fixed which was a bummer. It uses… Read more

very little water and was quite cheap for a front loader when we bought it. It washes really well and is always clean. It is noisy when compared to other new machines and the basic, quick washing cycle goes for a long time, approximately 45 minutes. When using the other settings it goes even longer. It also seems to move forward alot during the wash unless something quite weighty is on the top.
