Compact, full capacity washing is the aim here: Midea’s 8kg slim washer sits in the brand’s value-led range, competing with space-saving models from Beko, Indesit and Hotpoint. The 475mm depth is the headline, giving you a better chance of fitting it into tighter kitchens or utility cupboards without dropping to a 6kg drum. You still get a 1400rpm spin for drier loads, plus a BLDC motor, which is typically quieter and more efficient than older brushed designs.

Who is this slim 8kg washer best for?

Homes short on space, but washing for two to four people regularly. The steam allergy care setting is aimed at reducing allergens by using steam as part of the cycle, helpful for bedding and baby clothes. Turbo wash is there for quicker turnarounds when you need a decent clean in less time, rather than relying on short, low-performance cycles.

  • A-10% energy class: rated up to 10% more efficient than standard A class, with claims of big savings versus older D class models.
  • 1400rpm spin: less moisture left in cottons, so drying takes less time.
