If you live in a flat or semi-detached house, or have your kitchen directly off your living room, choose a machine that has a slightly lower dB rating.

With washing machines like the BEKO Pro AquaTech motor spinning at 1400, the vibrations can be intense, and if the machine is not installed correctly, the noise can be worse.

• • BEKO Pro AquaTech Noise rating: C – 77 dB Decibel (dB) during wash cycle (max 1400 rpm spin)

• • HISENSE 7S Series  Noise rating: A – 70 dB Decibel (dB) during wash cycle (max 1400 rpm spin)
