Smeg vs 8kg Load Washing Machine - White — Comparison

WDN064SLDUK is the Smeg WDN064SLDUK at £799, the higher-priced washer dryer in this comparison, offering a 10kg wash and 6kg dry capacity for all-in-one laundry. WNP84SECUK is the Smeg WNP84SECUK 8kg Load Washing Machine in white at £499, sitting as the more affordable washing-only model for buyers who do not need drying built in.

WDN064SLDUK is defined by its dual-purpose design: it can wash 10kg and dry 6kg, giving it more wash capacity than the WNP84SECUK and the ability to handle drying cycles. WNP84SECUK has an 8kg wash load, 15 wash programmes, C energy rating, white finish, H:840mm x W:600mm x D:580mm dimensions and an A rated 72dB noise rating. The WNP84SECUK does not include a drying function, but costs £300 less and provides a broader quoted programme count.

WDN064SLDUK is best for small homes, utility-free flats or anyone who wants to avoid buying a separate dryer. It makes sense if drying convenience is worth the extra spend and you regularly wash bulky loads. WNP84SECUK is better for households with drying space, a separate tumble dryer or a tighter budget. Its 8kg capacity is enough for many couples and small families, while the 15 programmes give flexibility without paying for an integrated drying system. In practical terms, this matters because washing machines tend to be kept for years: paying more is easier to justify when the extra drum space, drying, steam, dosing or smart control will be used weekly, while the cheaper model remains the better buy when those advantages would sit unused in everyday laundry routines at home.

Bottom line: choose WDN064SLDUK if you want a 10kg wash, 6kg dry washer dryer and can justify the £799 price / opt for WNP84SECUK if you want a £499 Smeg washing machine with 8kg capacity, 15 programmes and no drying function.
