About

The Asko W6424W is part of the Washing Machine test program at Consumer Reports. In our lab tests, Washing Machine models like the W6424W are rated on multiple criteria, such as those listed below.

Predicted reliability: Predicted brand reliability icons are based on estimated problem rates for newly purchased compact washers, not under service contract, within the first five years of ownership.

Owner satisfaction: Owner satisfaction icons are based on the proportion of members who are extremely likely to recommend their compact washer to their friends and family.

Washing performance: This reflects the degree of color change to swatches of fabric that were included in an 6-pound and maximum capacity test load of mixed cotton items using the machines' most aggressive normal cycle. (We do not use special cycle or option buttons.)

Features

Stainless steel tub Stainless steel tub Tubs constructed of stainless steel are likely to be more durable than plastic or porcelain, and they allow for higher spin speeds. Plastic is the next most durable choice.
Yes
Auto temp. control Auto temp. control This feature automatically mixes hot and cold water to reach the chosen wash temperature (which differs on various makes of washers). It's a good way to compensate for normal variations in tap-water temperature and prevents problems caused by water that's too cold, which keeps detergent from working properly.
Yes
Auto bleach dispenser Auto bleach dispenser Automatic Bleach dispenser releases the bleach at the proper point in the cycle, giving the detergent additives sufficient time to work. Note that some compact washers do not provide a bleach dispenser and recommend not using it in their washers.
No
Auto detergent dispenser Auto detergent dispenser Automatic Detergent dispenser releases the detergent at the proper point in the cycle.
Yes
Auto fabric softener dispenser Auto fabric softener dispenser Automatic Fabric Softener dispenser releases the fabric softener at the proper point in the cycle.
Yes
Extra rinse cycle Extra rinse cycle This feature can be useful for those with a sensitivity to detergent and others who find one rinse insufficient.
Yes
End-of-cycle signal End-of-cycle signal Sounds a bell or chime when the wash is done. Useful when the washer is in the basement or garage, or otherwise out of sight. On some models you can turn off the signal or adjust the volume.
No
Steam option Steam option This feature injects steam during parts of the cycle and is intended to improve wash performance.
No
WiFi WiFi This feature offers remote access through a wireless network. The specific functionality varies by model but can include options like problem detection and start/stop or cycle selection choices.
No
Deep Fill Deep Fill Offers the option to add additional water to the wash cycle.

Energy star Energy star The federal Energy Star program, administered by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy, identifies a wide range of home appliances that use 10-50% less energy and water than standard models. These appliances can help you use less energy at home and save money on your utility bills.
Yes
Type Type Front-loading washers -- With a door located on the front of the washer, one needs to stoop in order to load it. Front-loaders get clothes clean by tumbling them into water. Clothes are lifted to the top of the tub, then dropped into the water below. This design reduces water and energy use and makes front-loaders gentler on clothing and more adept at handling unbalanced loads. Be aware that front-loading washers give best results when used with high-efficiency detergent, which produces fewer suds than regular detergent. They're typically 24 inches wide. Conventional top-loading washers -- With the opening on the top of the washer, top-loaders are somewhat easier to load than a front-loading washer. Most top-loaders allow you to fill the tub with enough water to cover the clothing. Because they need room to move the laundry around the agitator to ensure thorough cleaning, these machines have a smaller load capacity than front-loaders. They're typically 24 inches wide. Unconventional top-loading washers -- These look much like conventional top-loaders on the exterior, but these machines typically replace the usual vertical agitator post with other wash mechanisms, such as disks or plates that lift and move clothing around the tub. They generally use less water, and thus less energy, than conventional top-loaders and often have a larger capacity. They provide best results when used with high-efficiency detergent, which produces fewer suds than regular detergent. They're typically 24 inches wide.

Stackable Stackable Some washers with front controls can be installed with a suitable dryer stacked on top, to save space. A special kit is sometimes required to mount the dryer on top of the washer.
