very quiet
washes and dries well, delayed start works well too, it also has a night silent mode with completion in the morning
after studying the English instructions downloaded from the internet, the operation is already clear
the registration of the extended warranty went well
there's no need for a fight
no detailed printed instructions in Czech. There was a sort of "quick guide" that didn't mention what some of the options were for, but linked to detailed instructions for downloading
the download instructions were only available in English, despite the information in the "quick start guide" that it was also available in my language
the instructions lack information on how to open the door to clean the filter. There is no opening system on the door, it has to be pried open, e.g. with a knife, there's no indication of where to insert the knife.
before cleaning the filter, you cannot drain the residual water from the washing machine through the hose - it does not have a hose at the filter.
the workers installing the washing machine neglected to install the lower noise cover, to fix the discharge hose in the upper catcher at the back of the washing machine (at a height of min. 60, max. 85 cm) and adjust the height of the legs (level).

Unfortunately, I must have done bad "research" before buying it and I won't make such a mistake next time. I bought two of them (big family) so that at least one would go if needed. Well, that didn't work out so well.
- One of them broke the pulley after six months (and the belt fell off) and of course stopped turning the drum
- The other stopped drying - clogged the channel with bordel and then it blew the temperature fuses inside the washer. There are no filters like in a conventional dryer, the washing machine tries to suck the mess/ lint from the clothes into the drainage channel/hose - which is a design feature of tumble dryers - according to the service technician this happens sooner or later in all of them. The control panel and the app are from another universe - those who designed the control panel and the app should be locked up somewhere. Now a few observations that I have noted down in the course of use:
- When I turn on the program via wifi and then remember that I messed up, when the washing machine has managed to fill the water, then it won't even let me start the spin and drain via wifi, probably because of the weight of the soaked laundry. It has to shut down and start draining on the panel.
- when it is discharged, I can see the status and how much is left in the app, but to start the next program I have to go back to the washing machine and switch it to wifi control again.
- The diagnostic program instead of 3-5 minutes ran for over half an hour, then when switching off the next program cannot be started because the washing machine is overheated which is not indicated in any way.
- When pairing the washing machine to the app, it disconnects the wifi, which each phone handles differently and then it generates errors in the app
- when pairing a second device with the same one, the first one added must be renamed first. Respectively, there cannot be two appliances with the same name in the app.
- easy ironing can't be activated during the programme, although this is a feature that is used after the programme is finished - sometimes it turns the drum if you don't take the clothes out straight away so they don't get wrinkled.
- really smells like burnt plastic when it dries. That's a lot. Not having a separate laundry room in the basement, they froze after the first drying (now after a year they stopped smelling)
- The first appliance I didn't get the control panel on the first time. It's all so confusing. Something with a wheel, something with buttons, pictograms unclear, so 99% we go through the app. Since the diplay scrolls mostly the name of the program and possibly the name of the changed function when you press something, you have to wait for the total program time before the whole text scrolls to the left.
- from the above it seems to me that in the USA where Hoover comes from they are 100 years behind the European style of thinking in ergonomics and logic or maybe I am too old.
- the wifi app is really messing up in various ways, it doesn't show the status accurately. Or suddenly you don't see the paired devices at all and have to forcecloset and restart the app - the toll of a cloud solution.
- you can't see the weight of the laundry in the app or on the machine - so you have no idea if you've put too much or too little - if you've overloaded it, you'll know that at some stage the belt starts to slip, or the drum just doesn't spin, and if you're lucky, the washing machine will know and stop with some error. If you're not lucky, the washing machine will finish with a "successful programme completion", but the laundry is either unwashed or undried - with the possibility of damaging itself (see the pulley on one of the washing machines, I think).
- it happened several times that the washing machine started to wash itself - it was loaded with laundry, connected to wifi, but the washing was not started. However, the washing machine itself started some random program, for example at night. After this experience, I will never use the washer dryer again, much less the Hoover.
It washes well
Good disassemblability in case of service
Quiet - even more so in night mode
drying not much

The first time you use the drying function, it smells of rubber. I'll see how the unpleasant smell goes the next time I use it.
Pere silence
Smells like rubber when drying

I've had the washing machine for a while, but so far I'm extremely happy with it. Washes beautifully, laundry is clean and fragrant.
Dryer perfect, laundry is dry and for gentle drying is beautifully fluffy.
Super control via mobile app, lots of washing and drying programs.
Too bad it doesn't show the weight of the laundry directly.
It washes, wrings and dries well.
Super price.
