Haier HWT10MW1 / HWT80MW1 / HWT90MW1

Spin only cycle on Haier top loader – The Haier does have a spin only function!..but it's not mentioned in the manual. Select your preferred program (my favourite is the express 30). Then press the PROGRESS button. You will see three lights above the progress button..Wash..Rinse..Spin and initially all three lights will be on. As you press the progress button the lights will go off… Read more

until only the Spin light is on...HEY PRESTO!..you now have a spin only cycle...press start and you're good to go.

Marks – This machine leaves marks on clothes, especially bed sheets, tried all different powder and liquid detergents, makes no difference whatsoever Show details

I found the lint filters! – I originally left a 3 star and negative review for this machine as it was leaving lint all over my clothes. Since then I have located the 2 lint filters in the barrel, which were absolutely full. The instructions to clean the filters are in the back of the user manual, no pictures, under 'Cleaning and Maintenance'. This information should also… Read more

appear in the beginning somewhere and in the troubleshooting section. It is not ideal for doonas though (and some bed sheets) as the outer fabric tends to billow upward and out of the water. The machine is easy to use and has plenty of cycle options.

Spin Cycle terrible – The spin cycle no good at all, and I am not happy at the sales pitch from Harvey Normans. Clothes come out wet, very disappointing. Not even a load of small works, can't recommend this product. Show details

Don’t buy this machine, you have been warned – Can’t spin anything without going out of balance, this product should be illegal as it can’t do what you pay good money for it to do. Businesses that sell this product should take it off there shelves immediately!! Show details

Poor quality product – Had this machine 15 months and already broken down. Washing always was a tangled mess don't buy this! Cycle times are long and doesn't wash work clothes 3 rinses to clean. Show details

Not worth a star – Would never recommend or purchase again. Spins out of balance even with 2 towels and a bath mat. And clothes are always in a tangled mess. warning to all prospective buyers DONT EVEN BE TEMPTED TO BUY. It’s located near a glass sliding door and one day I expect to see the machine has rattled its way to break the glass. Useless - my first wringer washing machine was better than this. Show details

Leaves cloths very wet with only 650rpm. Do not buy – If you want very wet cloths after max spin then buy this machine. Most machines are 900rpm but this one is only 650rpm. Do not buy!!!! I was never told this leaves the cloths very wet when buying this machine. Show details

Does the job, with a few quirks – OK this machine is very average. It does the job, it cleans, sort of. A few points i don't like about the machine, * Heavy lid occasionally comes down and hits you in the head lol * Anything heavy has to be spun twice, first time never spins dry enough. * Because it doesn't have an agitator, blankets and large items mushroom and at the end of the… Read more

wash leaves a big round dirty spot on top of said large item. Very bad design flaw. * As with many other washers it goes out of balance now and then, beeps until restart. * Wash cycles seem to last a lot longer than the time displayed. * Doesn't seem to get rid of foreign object and lint catcher is very average.

Not the best machine I have had – I am on second one as other had issues like getting out balance and clothes coming out so wet u had wring them by hand, this new one has few issues to, still gets out balance but not as bad, soap dispenser fills with water and it can’t get out so u have to empty it for next wash  Show details

Extremely happy – Bought this in a rush with 2 other products because budget was my focus. I love there is no agitator and the water level sending function is spot on. I use the progress function to do extra spinning of towels. The powder dispenser saves on powder. The machine had a great solid lid and the filters work so well and are easy to clean. I can put big… Read more

loads in but don't fill to 8kg capacity because I want the machine you last forever. I do about 25 loads a week of linen for holiday cottages and it's performing very well. I only have a few imbalance issues and after rearranging, stop the cycle and use the progress function to set it straight on spin cycle bypassing the automatic reset to rinse cycle again. So happy with it. Now you know how to use it, buy it!

Beware it’s a nightmare !! – the most frustrating washing machine of my washing life I have ever owned! Seriously drives me up the wall, it’s useless it won’t ever spin a load out without reverting back to the previous setting, nearly throws itself out of the laundry, when it attempts to spin it’s so loud and clunky I feel it’s going to fall apart, I have cried & swore a lot,… Read more

it seriously will drive you to drink!

I have had it leveled properly. Apart from ratchet strapping it down I think I will hurl it to the tip as I can’t even give it away knowing that I could mentally injure someone with it..

Very disappointed with this machine . Wouldn’t recommend it – Doesn’t spin dry enough - even 7 minutes for towels does not leave them dry enough. Cannot add extra time when you take out garments and find they are not dry enough. Doesn’t rinse well - need a minimum of 3 rinses for every load. I wish I had not bought a Haier machine. Cannot bypass any step in any program. Often do hand washing and now I cannot just spin them- have to choose a cycle.  Show details

Very impressed – Very quiet, easy to use, cleans very efficiently. I like all the programmes and the ease of adjusting to what I need.I am 73 and have used quite a few machines in my life both top and front loaders, some very expensive.I would rate this one as one of my favourites  Show details

Disgraceful – Worse buy of a washing machine ever - will be using all the reviews to get my money back - I can’t believe this machine ever passed QC - After having a F&P that never failed in 11 years this is just terribly frustrating- I guess you get what you pay for - special price - turned out to be special alright !!  Show details

Waste of money – Hopeless washing machine. Always goes out of balance no matter the size of the load. I could get more water out of the clothes by hand wringing them. Had a repair agent out to have a look at it he said he wont recommend it to anyone. Nothing he could do to fix. Absolute waste of money. My recommendation is don't buy this model.  Show details

Don't buy one! – First time used out of balance all the time, checked level it was fine. Could not get clothes to spin out. Tied knots in the clothes. Just horrible. Took it back Harvey Norman Maitland was fantastic. Store credit and bought a better washing machine. It was very disappointing. Also check the other reviews out.  Show details

Early days – Only 2 weeks old but so far i have liked the quickness of the cycle. Cleans clothes perfect. Very quite machine. Happy at this stage. I like how easy it is to use compared to more expensive brands. I bought a cheap machine with 6 years warranty from harvey norman.  Show details

Spinning Nightmare! – We purchased the washing machine from Harvey Norman on the 5/3/18. When the washer goes into spin mode, we have to pause it & re-balance the load, else the machine is likely to rock right out the door! We have used a spirit level to ensure the machine is balanced correctly. Even though it is supposed to be an 8kg washer, we have tried with smaller… Read more

loads! We have tried the different settings for specific loads e.g. towels in towel mode etc, nothing we have tried makes a difference to the rocking of the machine when it is in the spin cycle. It is a shame, as other than the spinning calamity, the machine is neat, quiet & washes efficiently. We have better things to do with our time than to sit by the machine & re-balance it every time we wash! Not Happy Haier Customers!

does a good job – This machine does a good job, washes well and has a lot of choices only complaint I have is that the clothes are still quite wet after the spin, regardless of the length of spin. A little bit loud in the spin when sheets are being washed.Filters are a great idea even though there is never very much in them.  Show details

A little frustrating – The machine washes the clothes well but does not spin well enough as clothes too wet to put in drier. The most annoying feature that towels get out of alignment when spinning and this is with only three towels - the progess button pressed to spin will begin and override the progress  Show details

Not bad but not the best – It washes well and the filters always have gunk in them. That is if I can get them both to stay in position. I am not very happy with the spinning, though. It doesn't spin them dry enough and I can't see much difference between the so-called anti-crease cycle and the normal cycle. I have yet to try the delicate cycle. And with my previous… Read more

washer, a Fisher and Paykel, who now own Haier, I could use just use the rinse and spin cycles but with the Haier this can't be done. I haven't owned the washer for long and no doubt I will get used to it but at this stage I wish I had stayed with Fisher and Paykel. I also think I paid too much for it.

Was: caution! now: Just DON'T! – First impressions: Bad! less than a week old, already an electrical fault!; technician scheduled to come out and inspect. User manual is terrible...no thought or care taken. If i had looked over or been able to download the manual before purchasing, i would not have purchased; already it seems indicative of the machine. Have had to check water… Read more

levels too but this is my first pulsating machine, so still learning. Time will tell. [UPDATE: DEC 2017...unexplained cut outs, auto sensor fail, chronic unbalancing issues...2 stars initially dropped to 1]

Big in washload, small in foot print. Perfect for lots of washing and little space! – Living in a block of units we needed to update my partner's 13 year old, noisy washing machine of only 6kgs. She started looking for new 6 kilo washers. I asked her if that was the biggest washer she wanted, she said she would love a bigger one, but the space was limited. I measured and started looking for washing machines to fit nothing more than… Read more

a 60 x 60cm space. We found about 7, and it was a race between the Haier range and a few of the Fisher & Paykel machines at not much more than $600. The Haier range didn't have an agitator and the rpm of the motors were much less than the F&P, but they were all much cheaper. So after going to 3 stores to check them out, it was a matter of pay for a 7kg F&P or a 9-10kg Haier for the same price or cheaper. The 10kg wasn't even in the running when we started. We went to JB Hi-Fi and they happened to have a sale on. The 10kg Haier was going to be cheaper than the 9kg, but slightly bigger than the 60x60cm we had measured. So after rechecking the measurements we bought the 10kg Haier. It was delivered with no hassles. We might have to replace the drier now, it is noisier than the washer! So now we can wash at any time of the day or night. It has many wash settings so it can wash for as long as you want it to. Its easy to use, has a big display showing the time remaining. The top loading makes it easy to use, no agitator means you can wash more clothes and larger items, and the Fuzzy logic feature determines the water required. The filter is very easy to clean.

Rubbish machine – Bought this a month ago after saving hard for a well overdue washing machine and it has been nothing short of a nightmare. It unbalances every wash no matter what, how much or how long you put it on for. The drainage hose is thin as paper and will be split soon. Such a waste of my hard earned money. Clothes are wet after spinning, even underwear.  Show details
