Haier HW80-B14979 Front-Loading Washing Machine 8 kg

This refurbished Haier HW80-B14979 is an 8 kg front-loading washing machine from Haier’s I-Pro Series 7 range, built around a belt-free Direct Motion motor for quieter, more efficient operation. With a 1400 rpm spin speed, an energy class A rating and a generous 14 wash programmes, it is a straightforward, dependable machine for everyday laundry.

Key features

• 8 kg wash capacity
• 1400 rpm maximum spin speed
• Energy class A
• Direct Motion belt-free motor
• 14 wash programmes, including a steam-based Refresh cycle
• Pillow Drum design for gentler fabric care
• Antibacterial treatment on the door seal
• Self-cleaning Smart Dual Spray detergent dispenser
• Internal drum lighting
• Automatic load detection

Rather than a traditional belt-driven motor, this machine uses Haier’s Direct Motion design, which mounts the motor directly on the drum. The result, according to Haier, is noticeably reduced noise and vibration during the spin cycle, along with the durability that comes from fewer moving parts.

An 8 kg drum and a 1400 rpm spin speed cover most households’ regular laundry comfortably, while the energy class A rating helps keep running costs down over years of use.

The Refresh programme uses steam to freshen clothes and reduce creasing in around 20 minutes, handy for garments that just need a quick pick-me-up rather than a full wash cycle.

A Pillow Drum design softens the surface the drum presents to your clothes, reducing friction and wear on delicate fabrics, while an antibacterial treatment on the door seal helps keep one of the harder-to-clean parts of the machine more hygienic between washes.

The Smart Dual Spray system automatically cleans the detergent drawer after use, cutting down on residue and build-up over time, and automatic load detection adjusts water and energy use to the size of each wash.

Good to know

Is it quiet enough for an open-plan kitchen? At 54 dB during washing and 69 dB during spin, with a noise emission class of A, it is designed to be relatively unobtrusive during everyday use.
