Haier vs LG — Comparison

The Haier Series 6 BHA6S696M6D9-80 and the LG Series 4 Pro FWY706NCTN1 are both washer dryers priced at exactly £549. The Haier offers a 9kg wash, 6kg dry and a 1600rpm spin, while the LG offers a 10kg wash, 6kg dry and a 1400rpm spin.

The Haier's faster 1600rpm spin extracts more water, shortening the drying phase. Haier's machines typically use direct-drive inverter motors and offer hOn app connectivity on Series 6 models. The LG FWY706NCTN1 offers an extra kilogram of wash capacity and AI Direct Drive, which detects fabric type and load weight to choose the optimal wash motion, along with LG's durable direct-drive motor and ThinQ connectivity.

At the same price, the decision is between spin speed and wash capacity. Larger households may prefer the LG's 10kg wash capacity and AI washing. Those who prioritise faster drying may prefer the Haier's 1600rpm spin. Both dry 6kg at a time.

Bottom line: choose the LG Series 4 Pro FWY706NCTN1 at £549 if you want a 10kg wash capacity and AI Direct Drive. Choose the Haier Series 6 BHA6S696M6D9-80 at £549 if you prefer a faster 1600rpm spin.
