Haier Top Load Washing Machine, 10 kg, Digital, Dark Silver, HWM100-316S8

The Haier HWM100-316S8 is the workhorse top loader Haier Egypt sells to families who want a real 10 kg drum without paying for an inverter. Loading is from the top with no bending, the tempered glass lid drops on a smart soft close hinge, and the cloth sensor reads the load for about 48 seconds before choosing the water level for you. Eight Programmes cover Normal, Cotton, Mix, Wool, Quick, Delicate, Bedding and Heavy, and a separate Tub Clean cycle alternates spinning with a ten hour soak to strip detergent residue. Haier's Pillow Drum uses pillow shaped bulges and 2.2 mm openings so clothes rub less and wear out slower, while the anti bacterial pulsator is rated at 99.99 percent bacteria suppression and the Bionic lint filter keeps fibres out of the wash. Fresh Air venting draws air through the lid to cut creasing, and Auto Restart resumes the cycle after a power cut. Rated at 500 W washing and 400 W spinning with a declared 72 dB noise level, it is a low running cost machine for an Egyptian apartment, and Radio Talaat stocks it in dark silver.
