Best energy and water efficient washing machine deal

“An excellent machine with lots of options plus 5 star energy and water ratings,” one customer shared in a 5-star review on Bing Lee, where it has a 4.6-star average from over 60 reviews. Another happy customer said it was the “same quality that saw our last Asko survive for 13 years.”
