Rank #2 in Best 10kg Washing Machine 2026: 10 Ranked by One-Star Share
Hoover Pro Wash Series 3 10kg 1400rpm Machine, Graphite
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
Hoover's Pro Wash Series 3 (model HBR 410BL8G-80) is a 10 kg freestanding washer at £299, and it sits second in our guide to 10 kg machines. It spins at 1400 RPM, is quoted at A-20% and described as running 20% more efficiently than a standard A-class model, and it holds a 4.5 rating from 132 ratings on the listing.
What this listing gives away is its own star breakdown: 79, 9, 4, 1 and 7. Those add up to 100, so the bars are percentage shares rather than counts of reviews — which makes the one-star share the figure worth comparing, and here it is 7%, against 6% on the £279 Candy and 18% on the £349 TCL elsewhere in this guide. The numbers then disagree with each other in the usual places. The spec field for Item Depth reads 85 centimetres, while a reviewer describes the machine's slim design as fitting the space without sticking out; the spec field lists 16 programmes, while a bullet promises 60+ dedicated cycles through the hOn app. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing, not from any testing we carried out.
