Description
NEFF Freestanding Washer Dryer, 8kg Wash / 5kg Dry, 1400rpm
A freestanding NEFF washer dryer that washes 8kg and dries 5kg in the one machine, spinning at up to 1400rpm with a quiet EcoSilence Drive motor.
This NEFF washer dryer puts washing and drying in a single 60cm freestanding machine, which makes it a sensible choice for homes without room for two separate appliances. It takes an 8kg wash load, dries up to 5kg, and slides under a standard counter, so it suits apartments, smaller utility rooms and busy family kitchens alike.
The standout is how little you need to plan around it. Most common wash programmes can run as washing and drying in one go, so a load goes in dirty and comes out ready to wear or fold. The autoDry function manages the drying for you, while the Wash & Dry 60' programme turns around small loads in an hour.
Ideal For
Where there is no space for a separate washing machine and tumble dryer, this single 84.8 x 59.8cm freestanding unit covers both jobs from one plumbed-in spot under the counter.
Washing and drying in one go means nobody has to be home to move loads between machines. Set the 24-hour end-time delay and have laundry finish when it suits you.
The Wash & Dry 60' programme handles small mixed loads in an hour, and Rapid 15 gives lightly worn clothes a fast refresh wash when time is short.
Key Features
The 60-litre drum takes a full 8kg wash load, with dedicated programmes for cottons, easy-care fabrics, delicates and silk, and wool or handwash items.
Up to 5kg can be washed and dried in a single uninterrupted cycle, so everyday loads never need hanging out or moving to another machine.
Spin speeds adjust from 400 to 1400rpm, and the safeguard monitoring system balances the load distribution automatically to keep things steady at full speed.
NEFF's efficient, long-lasting motor works alongside AntiVibration Design and extra sound insulation, so the machine runs smoothly even in living spaces.
Sensor-led drying works to your chosen drying aim, with timed programmes, Refresh, Intensive dry and low-heat options covering everything from towels to easy-care shirts.
Spotted a stray sock after pressing start? The Reload function lets you add forgotten items to the wash, and the large LED display keeps you posted on progress.
Washing that fits around your day
The large LED display shows programme status, remaining time and a load recommendation, and lets you delay the end of a cycle by up to 24 hours. That means laundry can finish just as you get home rather than sitting damp in the drum. SpeedPerfect trims washing time by up to 65% when you need results quickly, and the fully electronic control dial keeps every programme a simple turn away.
A quiet machine for open living
Laundry appliances often end up near living space, so NEFF has paid attention to noise. The EcoSilence Drive motor is engineered to be quiet and durable, AntiVibration Design adds stability during the spin, and additional noise-reduction material insulates the cabinet. The result is a machine you can run in the evening without turning the television up, with a foam detection system and child safety lock working quietly in the background.
Drying without the extra appliance
The drying side of this machine is genuinely useful rather than a token extra. Standard drying programmes cover cottons and easy-care loads, and special programmes add Refresh, Intensive dry and a low-heat option for delicate fabrics. The autoDry function takes care of judging when clothes are done, and the condenser is maintenance free, removing fluff automatically rather than asking you to clean it. For small everyday loads, Wash & Dry 60' washes and dries in a single hour, which covers school uniforms, gym kit and the shirt you need for tomorrow.
How It Compares
| Kitchen Need | NEFF Technology | Practical Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Small utility room | All-in-one washer dryer | One 60cm freestanding machine washes and dries, so there is no need to find space for a second appliance. |
| No outdoor line | 5kg drying capacity | Clothes dry inside the machine whatever the weather, with autoDry judging when the load is ready. |
| Out all day | Wash and dry in one go | A load runs from dirty to dry without anyone home to transfer it between machines. |
| Evening laundry | EcoSilence Drive and AntiVibration | The quiet motor, added insulation and stable spin let cycles run without disturbing the household. |
| Last-minute outfits | Wash & Dry 60' programme | Small loads are washed and dried in an hour, so tomorrow's essentials are ready tonight. |
| Forgotten items | Reload function | Pause after the start and add the stray sock or tea towel instead of waiting for the next load. |

The Verdict
Strengths
- Washes 8kg and dries 5kg in one machine
- 1400rpm maximum spin with automatic load balancing
- Quiet EcoSilence Drive motor with AntiVibration Design
- autoDry sensor drying with multiple drying programmes
- Wash & Dry 60' one-hour programme for small loads
- Maintenance-free condenser with automatic fluff removal
- Child lock and foam detection built in
Considerations
- Drying capacity is 5kg against an 8kg wash capacity, so a full wash load needs splitting before a drying cycle.
- A complete wash and dry cycle at rated capacity takes 7 hours 30 minutes, so plan bigger combined loads around it.
- There is no Home Connect app control on this model; programmes are set at the machine itself.
