It is a semi automatic machine. The look is good. When I went to purchase it, I was apprehensive about its performance. To my knowledge they are new to this segment. When my wife started using it, she was happy with its over all performance. Switches are very easy to be understood. Unlike an automatic automatic washing machine it does not require continuous supply of water. It has two years of on sight warranty. The motor speed is 1300 RPM.It washes clothes using pulsator technique. That means it spins back and forth to clean clothes. Its capacity is 8 kg. Its weight is 28 kg. Power consumption is 225 watt. It has a fiber body and looks nice. Since I stay at Bhubaneswar, I hope service will not be problem for me.
