A busy life means lots of laundry. But with a connected utility room, you can still have plenty of time for adventure.

With easyStart, you can make your life even easier as it picks the perfect programme for your load from just a few simple questions. And if you already know the programme you are looking for - just ask Alexa to get it started for you.

If you are going to be out for a while, you can also use the Home Connect app to pick the time you want your cycle to finish. Your machine will then start at the perfect time, so your laundry is ready for you when you get home.

Stains no longer need to be a concern - the Home Connect app provides you with 16 additional settings that provides the best cycle to get rid of any stain.

Forget worrying about how much detergent is the right amount for your washing. With i-Dos, your machine will dispense the perfect dosing based on the water hardness, fabric type and level of soiling. Detergent scan within the Home Connect app further adjusts the dosage to the detergent and softener you use, to help ensure the appropriate amount of detergent is dispensed.

Having to leave home sooner than expected? Within the Home Connect app, you can add varioSpeed on to speed up your laundry - even after the cycle has already started.

Even whilst your washing machine is hard at work getting your clothes perfectly clean, you can stay connected to your washing machine. With Amazon Alexa or Google Home, you can get progress updates, speed up or delay your programme so it finishes at a more convenient time.

Thanks to intelligent laundry, you do not need to constantly check the washing machine to see if your cycle has finished. The Home Connect app automatically sends you a notification to let you know when your washing is ready for drying.

Or you can count on a solution in conjunction with IFTTT and Philips Hue to let you know the washing is finished. Simply set your Philips Hue light to flash as soon as the machine has finished. Now you can relax while waiting for your washing cycle to end, knowing you will know exactly when it has finished.

Interested in the energy and water consumption of your washing cycle? With our consumption guides within the app, you can see an indication of how much water and energy each programme uses. Now you can make informed decisions and get the most out of your machine, every time you use it.

To keep your machine performing at its full potential, the Home Connect app will keep you notified when your machine needs cleaning. Just use the drum clean program to keep your machine working at its best.

intelligentDry creates the perfect connected laundry solution. When your washing machine and dryer are synced via Home Connect, they communicate with each other - your washer sends details about your washing load to the dryer so that the correct drying programme is automatically selected.

If you prefer making the decision yourself, our drying targets help guide you towards the perfect results. Each level creates a drying cycle that adapts to different materials and levels of dryness, making it easier to manage the ironing.

Avoid shrinking your clothes with autoDry. As the drum spins, the humidity of each textile is measured to prevent overheating and avoid shrinking. Not only does this save you from having to buy new clothes, but you can now spend less of your time doing the ironing.

The smartFinish programme further reduces your ironing pile by using gentle steam to smooth away wrinkles and creases, saving your time and money.

With a self-cleaning condenser, your dryer keeps itself clean and achieves its full potential every cycle. It automatically removes lint from the filter and cleans itself during the drying cycle by rinsing with water. You no longer need to remember to remove the lint after every cycle - only empty the container when the sensors alert you that it is full (approximately every 20 cycles).

The Home Connect app will also help to keep your appliance in top condition with handy notifications to your smartphone or smartwatch, when maintenance or refilling is required.

The notification you have been waiting for! Depending on how you have set your connected home up, you will receive a notification via your smartphone, smartwatch, or smart speaker.

Personal Dry makes sure your dryer works perfectly for you - you will receive a push notification to review the quality of the dry to improve the drying programmes for future cycles. Your dryer will use the feedback you give to alter your future cycles to ensure you get the ideal finish for your clothing.

For peace of mind, all of our appliances come with a 5 year warranty so you can be assured that your laundry solution will be with you for the long run.

A stack-able pairing is the perfect solution if you have limited storage space. And with Home Connect compatibility, you will have access to advanced features and functions to connect your washer and dryer into an immaculate laundry solution.

Choose compatible appliances

The safest and simplest way to make sure your appliances will stack easily together, is to buy the set from the same brand. This ensures your appliances not only fit great together, but look seamlessly integrated into your utility room.

Using a stacking kit is a good idea - even if the appliances are the same dimensions. It will help to distribute the weight evenly and absorb the vibrations to make sure both appliances run simultaneously without any problems. Some even include a pull out shelf to help make transferring your laundry up to the dryer even smoother.

Or if this isn't an option, you could opt for a washer-dryer to get two solutions in one.
