Electrolux front loader
My first front loader . And I did a lot of research. As I have only ever used fishers paykell. But after a bad run with my last machine from them I decided I have to try another brand, What a great machine. I am still getting used to a lot if the cycles but spins out the clothes amazingly. Massive drum to fit my super king sheets into. And found it great that it uses a heater inside the machine to warm up the hot water . So only cold water is needed. Lots of different settings and you can set up your phone to work it remotely ( I haven’t tried yet). But great for a family who do lots of washing .

At a glance
This 12kg Electrolux front load washer is a strong fit for busy families needing to wash large loads, bedding and everyday laundry in one go. Its key strengths are the roomy drum, SmartSelect controls, UltraMix detergent mixing and SensorWash stain support, backed by 5 star energy and 4.5 star WELS ratings. The main trade-off is its standard 60cm width but deeper 65.9cm cabinet, which may not suit tighter laundry spaces.

- Large Family Laundry
- Bulky Bedding Washes
- Mixed Fabric Loads
- Everyday High-Capacity Washing
- Dark Clothes Care

- Family Homes
- Busy Laundry Rooms

- Homes With High Weekly Laundry Volume
Who it’s for
- Large Families
- Busy Households

Things to consider
It offers strong fabric care and capacity, but buyers wanting ultra-quiet operation, built-in auto dosing or premium steam-focused hygiene features may prefer a higher-end model.
Fabric care suitability score
8.5/10 - Strong on wool care, detergent mixing and sensor-led stain washing for mixed household fabrics.
Water efficiency rating
4.5 Star WELS - 104L per wash cycle
Family laundry fit
Excellent for large families and households washing bulky bedding, towels and high weekly volumes.
Noise level vs category average
Not specified - no verified noise figure provided, so it cannot be rated against category average.
Allergy suitability
Moderate - SensorWash may improve cleaning performance, but no dedicated allergy or hygiene steam program is specified.
Key benefits
- 12kg Capacity: Handles large family loads, towels and king bedding in fewer washes.
- IntelliQuick Cycle: Washes a full 12kg load in 45 minutes for faster turnaround on busy days.
- UltraMix Technology: Dissolves detergent before it enters the drum to help reduce visible residue on clothes, especially darker items.
- SmartSelect Controls: Makes it easier to tailor settings to different fabrics and load sizes.
- SensorWash: Adjusts cycle duration to help remove up to 53 stains without pre-treatment.
- Woolmark Blue Program: Provides gentle care for machine-washable wool garments.
- 5 Star Energy Rating: Helps reduce running costs with estimated annual energy use of 292kWh.
- 4.5 Star WELS Rating: Uses 104L per wash cycle, supporting lower water use for a washer in this size class.
Q: Can it wash a full 12kg load in under an hour
A: Yes. Electrolux EWF1243R7SCS uses the IntelliQuick cycle to wash a full 12kg load in 45 minutes. That suits large laundry days, but the quickest cycle is not the best choice for every fabric or heavily soiled load.
Q: Is a 12kg washer practical for smaller everyday loads
A: Yes. Electrolux EWF1243R7SCS combines SmartSelect controls with SensorWash sensing, so it can tailor settings and cycle time to different load sizes. The trade-off is its cabinet size stays the same even when you wash only a few items.
Q: Will it fit in a standard laundry cabinet space
A: Yes, in many laundries. Electrolux EWF1243R7SCS measures 600mm wide, 659mm deep and 850mm high, so the width is standard for this category, but the depth still needs room for hoses, door swing and access in front.
Q: Will dark clothes still show detergent marks after washing
A: Electrolux EWF1243R7SCS is designed to reduce that issue. UltraMix dissolves detergent and softener before they enter the drum, which helps cut visible residue on dark items, but it does not make residue impossible in every load.
Q: Is this washer gentle enough for machine-washable wool garments
A: Yes. Electrolux EWF1243R7SCS includes a Woolmark Blue programme designed to be as gentle as handwashing on machine-washable woollens. It is not intended for wool items labelled hand wash only or dry clean only.
Q: What are the electricity running costs like for this washer
A: Electrolux EWF1243R7SCS has a 5 star energy rating and estimated annual energy consumption of 292kWh. A higher star rating generally means lower electricity use than other 12kg front load washers with a lower rating.
