Miele this year has introduced the UK’s first ever washing machine that records and reports its energy usage. The W1945 Eco-feedback records information(energy, duration, and water use) about its usage for every cycle and reports back to the user on a screen on the front of the machine.

This is good because it helps the user understand their energy usage and so they can take control of resource consumption and their laundry routines.

Other features include: 9 programmes, 3 wash cycles – which are all eco-friendly without compromising wash quality or garment care, A+AB rating, Excellent spin performance whatever the load.

This sleek design Miele washing machine seamlessly integrates into any kitchen. It will always look good as new with its durable direct coating which is non-scratch and resistant to discolouration.

Available from £868.
