- Hi CZcamsrs, here we have a 7Kg wash washing machine from Indesit (IWC 71453).
I chose this washing machine because of the shorter wash programmes available, as most machines seem to take over 2 and a half hours for a standard wash. Originally purchased from Currys - PC World for £249.99, and has a "B" rating for energy consumption. Another great feature of this appliance is the "extra rinse" option, which is great for making sure the deterrent is out of heavier items of clothing such as jeans and towels.

I have an 8kilo machine, bought by my landlord. Every standard wash takes 4.5 hours - it takes in effect a whole waking day to do two loads. My elderly parents and sisters Don't have Indesit-brand washing machines - they're all able to select one-hour wash cycles, and have been baffled that mine takes so long. I see now that lots of people complain online about Indesit machines, it seems.
This video gave me the confidence to go ahead and use my brand new machine for the first time yesterday.
I have the older version of this washer. Its nearby 3 years old now it's been amazing

A very 'clean' video, nice one. There was no 'spin' on the product, just straight facts. No 'rinsing' about, either.
Excellent use of 'puns'!
@@juliaevans9521 I aim to please lol. Have felt quite DRAINED since 🤣🤣
I'm grateful to find this exact model video. I'm seriously considering binning my 20 year old Zanussi because it just bleeps CONSTANTLY through the whole wash but it still works 😠 I don't want any digital, LED cr#p
I’ve had no problems with mine since having it 6 months ago, highly recommended
@@andycdgreen thanks Andy
older Zanussi m/c s had a good reputation. Hope you kept it. It's like cars, the more fancy bits, the more to go wrong 😞
@daffyduk77 I persevered, I'm still using it 😄
@@daffyduk77 my zanussi went wrong a lot. Probs because mine is a washer dryer
Top tip...I put a black mark on the top of each of the 3 knobs...so I can see the 'setting' at a glance.
That’s a brilliant idea! Thank you for your input. It is a bit silly that they haven’t done this in the factory and just supplied all white knobs
I touch the little pimple brail style lol. Good machine can't fault it
@@sob-iLs agreed... ours is 11 years-old and is still going strong...
I have this washing machine and i hate it it constantly bleeds and the wash takes hours
I was checking the kWh on the cheaper Beko, Indesit and Hoover. This has the lowest. They all had Energy rating D.
I have that Washing machine 🤩💅🏾
Thanks for the information on the machine 😃
Thank you so much for this post.
Good morning. Thank you for this video.. please can you show how you put in and drain water from the machine
How do you open the door mid wash? Mines stopped mid wash all the buttons flashing it’s blocked and half a drum of water. I opened the filter on it already.
We are getting this installed on Sat (20/5/2023)
Just bought this model from my local Curry's store (to replace my previous Indesit model which managed to last for 15 years). The No.8 rapid wash setting is great, can do my daily clothes or my towels in just over 20 mins! I dont have a family so wont be overusing the machine.
Nice one!
Just gonna try it on no 8 now
It says max load 1.5 kilo on that setting but does it do more then ??
I think with the weight thing there just meaning if you put in a smaller load it will clean them better but i fling in nearly a full load (underwear, polo shirts, jeans, jumpers, socks) and it seems to be cleaning them fine.. The Currys guy who delivered it put it to that setting 8 and speed 1000. Its entirely up to you.
This washer looks good for me I live alone my last Indesit lasted over 8 years it's just broken
I realised that someone like me who hadn't used a persona machine before would need some extra visual guidance on loading the machine. So I have recorded this for an upload to YT to help others.
I've got this same unit yet has the 9kg drum (IWC91482) Just finished same wash as you and took 1hour 39 minutes.
Very helpful. Thank you :)
Hi, thanks for the vedio, please clarify the monthly cleaning method, any filter cleaning, how to get rid of mould?
Just use a washing machine cleaning solution every 3-6 months. To prevent mould build up, leave the door slightly open when not in use
Thanks a lot
How do you do a quick wash
Mine is indesit IWSB5105 almost the same but it takes 2-3 hours washing. And the water soil is very little and it doesn’t remove stains. I don’t even know kid it washes at all. How can I operate properly. Please advise
Have you tried using a washing machine cleaner? Maybe there are some build ups inside?
use good detergent and probably a hotter wash, modern detergents are designed for colder water but the washes should take much longer if using cold water, pre treat any stains, I use vanish spray on all the kids clothes with food stains and everything else and they come out spotless ( different machine )
Usually if you want a quick wash it has to be hotter water, colder wash takes longer.
For energy saving, a machine that has proper load sensing uses only the water it needs based on the load and load type, heating the water is what costs the money a 2 hr cold wash uses practically nothing compared to a 1hr 30 min wash at 40 degrees.
Another, often overlooked issue is that hard water needs a lot more detergent. Use the recommended washing powder and liquid based on the load amount and hard/soft water.
At number two mine took 7hs and it didn’t even stop until I switched it off and change it to the number 16 to do the spin. Can you please help me with that!!!
Plz advised me I just bought this machine but when I put on it just washing and washing nothing do else I have to choose manually everything
Do you have any recommendations on the best settings to use? wash and dry in one cycle?
Preferably, no ironing, straight out of the machine to the wardrobe.
This isn’t a dryer… just a washer. I recommend prog no.2 for most items at 40c, but check you washing labels in your clothes to double check
Me too, I try a quick wash for daily wash but it doesn’t spin very well I don’t now what’s best for bed linen so far 2, hrs 30 mins
Thank you..
No problem
I only wanted to know where to put the soap, and you didn’t tell me, we don’t all use capsule detergent!
Left - pre-wash,
Middle - detergent,
Right - softener
My white wash last over 5 hours?
Lol same
Modern machines are designed to wash at lower temps with detergent designed for lower temps and if using colder water the wash needs to take a long time for the detergent to do it's job. Try a hotter wash on a different setting, the manual should tell you how long washed should take ? Using hotter water will use a lot more energy especially in machines that have no proper load sensing, if you can see the water in your machine up along the door then it has not got proper load sensing and will cost you a lot more to heat the water.
A cold was for example may take 3 hrs but all it's doing is turning the drum via the electric motor which uses considerably less energy then the element does to heat the water.
When u got yrs when turned on did all the lights flicker and turn machine off mine only 22 hours old didn't even get to do a wash same machine as yours
Mine just illuminates all the buttons for about a second and does the “tri-beep” when you switch it on
Running twice as long doesn't tell the whole story, modern machines that use cool or cold water take much longer to wash because where in the past the heat did the main work now it's the detergent. The main difference is heating the water, this is what costs not the overall time the machine is on and another reason you have less and less control and options for each wash so it can sell as A or B rated. So a machine that takes twice as long to wash might only heat a fraction of the water and heat it only to 30 degrees, 15 degrees etc and the rest of the time it's only turning the drum which uses very little energy, heating is what costs. This will use much less electricity than a machine that washes in half the time or even less but heating twice the water or even more, could be 3 times the water if there's no proper load sensing.
Here's another example, fill a kettle half way and it will cost half as much than heating a full kettle, you wouldn't boil a full or even half a kettle for a cup of tea.
Modern machines with A rating are based on water usage and total Kwh, it doesn't matter how long the wash takes, if it's heating twice the water ( and more ) than it needs, a machine with proper load sensing uses only the water it needs this is why they are more expensive but since I got cheap night time electricity and a Well for water I couldn't care less about water usage or about energy ratings that mean nothing if the machine only lasts 4 or 5 years tops going 7 days a week anyway.
The reason washes take a long time is because People are washing at lower and lower temps and detergents can't work so good at 1 hr washes in cool water so the wash has to take a long time and modern washers with A ratings are usually set so you can't change the temperature and you might find that the hotter washes show less time to wash and 30 min washes are only for clean clothes that need freshen up not for kids clothes that are often filthy with stains.
This Indesit Looks really easy to use, we got this Samsung and it's got smart apps and everything but very complicated to use and the washes take absolutely forever, you can't beat simplicity as it should be, you can't beat manual controls and having individual controls.
We've paid a lot more for washing machines that don't last more than 4 or 5 years so not doing that again buying smart machines with internet connectivity and for what ? you save energy bla bla, well, the cost to save the earth means everything is getting too complicated to use and the quality can be crap and more expensive but designed to be eye candy with "digital" used as marketing.
I won't be spending 400-500 + on a washing machine again. Granted, our machine is going 7 days a week with 2 Boys getting mucked to the eyeballs every day.
The moral of the story is that you can't beat water, suds and heat to clean clothes in a short time and all the wizardry in electronics mean that the machines get more complicated to use, don't last as long and are all digital nonsense with apps to do stuff you can both do without and do from the machine anyway but used as marketing tools to make the machines more expensive
Says mixed colours take 1:35 I've been here sat here for just over 2 hrs and no sign of it being finished anytime soon
excellent video
Thank you!
I have the same one ,not my choice as I rent, I worked out the exact same as you so use prog 2 the timesaver button does nothing 🤷well it didn't on mine , you got the wrong one if you wanted a quick wash my last one a whirlpool Hotpoint had a 30 min option and a 15 🙌
Got exactly the same it's got problems now it's not taking in the powder the jets aren't working properly likentheres a block but was all stripped down yesterday and tested just can't find the issue as yet! Can I ask a favour can you put it on a mix 30 number 5 and let me know the time it takes the powder or the jets come on in the drawer please
It’s say in the list of programmes which ones to use powder with. Looks like the longer run times, for all the others I guess you might be better using liquid or gel pouches. There is sometime a pause of a minute or 2 for the water to start flowing through the drawer after the initial switch on
I just got one on very pay over 3 months and got £30 off with a voucher code
Excellent!
I’ve got the same washing machine- water fills the machine but machine does not work🤦🏾♂️
Very interesting.
Glad you think so!
Thanks. But I cant figure out how to do a cold wash. Can you help? Cant see on manual either
Turn the temperature dial to the snowflake icon, the water temperature will be whatever it is that comes into your home from the water mains
@@andycdgreen Oh yes, I missed that when I first listened to your presentation. My model is a washer/dryer it seems. so the spin cycle dial to the right of the temperature dial only has a selection of 1200 then 1900 (and less) for the spin. Then it seems to have a dryer set of selections, iron dry, cupboard dry etc. I notice you select 1500 which I dont have. I guess I"ll just experiment with either 1200 or 1900
I have an exact washing machine at that time, suddenly it doesn't work and all the lights flash, can you help me???
What are plastic panels inside drum?
They are paddles to help “agitate” the washing, all part of the cleaning process. Practically every washing machine has them, either plastic, or part of the metal drum
My indesit, same model would not start, later on all lights came on like a christmas tree and wouldn't start, 30 minutes later it resolved itself and let me start the chosen wash cycle. Does anyone have any information as to why this is happening?
In this situation, I would pull the plug completely from the wall because as it still has power, it will be in a standby state even if you turn it off using the power button on the front
Washing machine when now switched on it starts flashing all lights on and off and won't start the washing cycle
I wish I’d never bought this. The programmes are so long the quickest wash is 20 minutes but that’s only with 1.5kg in. Crap. I wish I’d looked into it
Also the time saver button will cut certain programmes by half or a third. The guy at citrus told me that
The quick wash is designed to freshen up 1 or 2 items realistically, hence the the max load weight
Tiene programas más normales como el algodón color que dura una hora y media, y el de sintéticos también

Does anyone know what the energy saver is and if it actually makes a difference?
Na just a few minutes and you have to hang the clothes / laundry up to dry longer
The water does not come out, I do not know why, I opened everything, and it is new
Is the tap switched on at the wall?

求解答。
I got the same machine but don't heat the water up and I don't want for 3 hours or more
A wash needs 3 hrs or more to be effective in cold water, the detergents can't clean in cold water in short washes unless they are clean going in and just need to be freshened up. Heating the water is what costs, the electric motor turning the drum uses very little energy.

Terrible washing machine. Mixed colours takes bloody hours and hours. Don’t believe the manual. Even with time saver pressed in
Sorry you’ve had a bad experience, mine still functions fine and is pretty close to the specified wash times
@@andycdgreendo videos with it
I want to see how it spins at 1400 rpm
These washers are crap! they dont heat the water.
Try not using eco mode. I find that eco mode doesn't heat the water up nearly as quick as normal mode. I've found this on pretty much every washer I've used
A lot of people get caught thinking their machine can heat the water properly with a very short wash and don't realise that a cold wash will take 3 hrs or more as the detergent can't do it's job in cold water in a short time.
If you set your machine to 40 deg and don't set the program for long enough that it can heat it it will not heat to full temp.
@@o00scorpion00o I've ran my candy and Logik on their quickest cycles rapid 15 and rapid 14. And set to "30c" probably didn't even reach 20c
@@o00scorpion00o I always use cottons (non eco) for best cleaning performance (on most machines) sometimes whites (even if I'm not washing whites) depending on the washer
@@danhutchinsonbackup I'd say didn't even reach 15 deg, if a wash has to take 15 mins in total I doubt it can heat the water at all ? Even if it did it would probably only just barely have it up to temp when it has to empty the drum.
a 15 min was will have short spins and 1 or 2 rinses, I need more rinses due to sensitive skin.
Just waste of time
What is, the machine?
