    The washing machine offers excellent cleaning performance, quiet and energy-efficient operation, and intuitive controls with preset cycles. It has a spacious 8kg capacity and durable construction. However, some users reported issues with cloudy marks on dark clothes, excessive tangling, and slow spin speed. Overall, it appears to be a capable and affordable top-loading model, with the positive reviews outweighing the minor drawbacks.

    Great - easily fit and washed a queen blanklet
    HAIER - 9kg - Top Loader washer. Very impressed, Easy to use. Very large from inside and washer drum, the lint filter x 2 are great and very efficient. Dimension size were correct to fit a 600 mm cabinet. Many other washing machines said they fit a 600 mm dimension, though when you check the specifications, they were 635 mm in width. I would give you 5 stars. Appliances online were excellent - the delivery driver was great, he brought the machine in the house and took my old machine away. Then, later in my leisure, I attached the water pipes and the drain pipe and it was an easy installation. This was not my first installation. Leveling the machine was very easy. My clothes have less lint and/or fluff on them every time I do a wash cycle. Thank you, Appliance online and the Haier brand, so far I can not fault the quality of this Washing Machine. Appliance Online - Sales and service were seamless and efficient. I recommend them to all. Kind regards, Jody O.

    Questions & answers

    Hello. If I’m having trouble disconnecting my hoses to my washing machine , will the delivery driver help me before installing the new one? Tracy · 2025-08-02
    Hi Tracy, if necessary, they will. But we may need to leave the washing machine there for any water to settle before coming back to pick it up the following day (we can't have a machine with water that may seep out on a truck with cardboard boxes that contain things that would be damaged if they come into contact with water). Cheers, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    I am elderly and want a simple top loader, something like the instructions of the old Hoover top loader machine can you suggest any brands that I might check out Jude · 2025-06-28
    Hi Jude, all washing machines these days have some level of digital dashboard on them. My recommendation for the one with the simplest layout would be the Fisher & Paykel Series 5 8kg Top Load Washing Machine with UV Sanitise WL8058G1, but this Haier one is relatively straightforward to use and you shouldn't have any difficulty. If you can navigate a Smart TV, this TV will be no hassle at all. Kind regards, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    Hi, I want to buy this but have gone through quite a few 1 stars and comments are that it doesn't wash well and leaves cloudy marks and also a lower rpm and clothes come out wet. so I am confused. Some people posted that it leaks as well. Hussey · 2025-04-12
    Hi Hussey, everyone's experience with a product is going to be different and what I will say is that sometimes, with with laundry appliances especially, it's peoples experiences of moving from one type of machine to another (for example, top to front load washing machine or vented to heat pump clothes dryer). Using this product as an example as at April 2025, of the 331 people who purchased this machine and submitted a response to a review questionnaire (of which I'll admit, I am terrible and never leave reviews for anything despite knowing how important they are), 243 of those 331 had a 5-Star response and 60 had 4-Star reviews (303 of 331). Overwhelmingly, people who purchased this machine are happy with it. It might be worth looking at somewhere like Choice or Canstar to see what people who know a lot about these things are saying about these machines (essentially like looking up reviews from motoring bodies for cars if you're in the market for one). Hopefully this helps! Cheers, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    Does this machine have an adjitator Mark · 2024-05-01
    Hi Mark, this machine doesn't have a central point agitator. Fisher & Paykel are really the only ones we stock still selling machines that feature a central point agitator. Most of the newer top load machines use pressurised water or half half-length agitators. Kind regards, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
