⚡ At a Glance

  • Best for: Households of two to four seeking energy-efficient, gentle laundry care

Effective Cleaning at Lower Temperatures - with ecobubble foam technology

Ecobubble mixes air, water and detergent to form a fine foam that dissolves and distributes cleaning agents before they meet fabrics. The foam penetrates fibres more evenly than liquid detergent alone, enabling stronger stain removal without high temperatures.

Cleaner laundry while using cooler cycles, which suits delicate fabrics and reduces energy use. Ideal for regular washes where stain removal and fabric care are both priorities.

Remote Control and Scheduling - with SmartThings compatibility

SmartThings connectivity links the appliance to a smartphone for remote monitoring and control of wash cycles and settings. App interaction enables start, stop and status checks from anywhere with a network connection.

Start or check cycles from work or while running errands, making laundry less of a chore. Scheduling features help fit washing into daily routines and reduce forgotten loads.

Improved Hygiene and Low Maintenance - with Hygiene Steam, Drum Clean, and StayClean Drawer

Hygiene Steam targets bacteria and allergens using a high-temperature steam phase, while Drum Clean runs a maintenance cycle to clear residue. The StayClean Drawer reduces detergent build-up in the dispenser area to maintain wash quality.

Fewer manual deep-clean tasks and fresher results for sensitive skin or bedding. Regular use of hygiene programmes helps preserve performance and reduces odours over time.
