As mums, we are always on the lookout for appliances that will take care of our family’s needs.

Which is why we were thrilled to announce the Kleenmaid product review where we delivered an Eco Sensitive Washing Machine (LW8014) to a group of mums to trial and review at home!

Here’s why all mums will love the Kleenmaid Eco Sensitive Washing Machine …

Detergent Mix and Spray

The Kleenmaid Eco Sensitive Washing Machine mixes the detergent with water before spraying into the drum of the machine – a unique process which ensures the detergent gently yet thoroughly penetrates the fibres of the clothes being washed. This also means that the water temperature can be lowered by up to 50%, which means less wear on fabrics and allows whites and colours to be washed together.

Dynamic Drum Design

The holes in the drum of a washing machine play an important role in improving the gentleness and effectiveness of your daily wash. Kleenmaid’s Dynamic Drum Design cleverly optimises the number, shape and size of the holes for optimal cleanliness and has a counter rotating drum to ensure your clothes don’t get tangled.

Spiral Curved Agitators

The spiral curved shaping of the agitators in the Kleenmaid Eco Sensitive Washing Machine continuously yet gently moves the wash load into the centre of the drum, guaranteeing a comprehensive and total clean every time.

Strong and silent

The unique ‘boomerang’ design on the side walls gives the machine’s cabinet strength and keeps noise to a minimum. This means, you can do your washing at a convenient time, while being sure you won’t wake your little ones enjoying forty winks.

Eliminates allergens and bacteria

Using the ‘Allergy Safe’ program, seven allergens and four bacteria types can be eliminated, giving you the peace of mind that your wash is as sanitary as possible.

15 fully customisable wash programs

The Kleenmaid Eco Sensitive Washing Machine lets you select from three different stain levels, multiple spin speeds, cold to 90°C wash temperatures as well as easy ironing options, giving you a customised wash every time. There’s even the option of a 12 minute rapid wash for when you need clean clothes, fast.

Eco logical system

The Kleenmaid Eco Sensitive Washing Machine weighs the wash load at the start of each new cycle, meaning you’ll not only save water but also energy.

Safety and protection

To protect your Kleenmaid Eco Sensitive Washing Machine, the LW8014 comes with an impressive list of controls including excessive foam control, overflow protection, multiple failure detection, child safety lock and 3 year full parts and labour warranty, which is supported by Kleenmaid’s highly skilled national service network.

  • All I do is washing

    I would like to review the Kleenmaid Eco Sensitive Washing Machine as mine is on its way out and with a large family trying to do washing my hand is going to take me forever to get through. Plus the thought of trying to wash sheets by hand is putting me off. This machine sounds really good and I like the fact that the hot water can be up to 50% less and I also like that the detergent mixes with the water before spraying into the drum that makes more sense to me. I would really like to try out this product and hope I get an opportunity to do so.

  • No more dog smell!

    I threw my dog’s bed and blanket into the Kleenmaid Eco Sensitive washing machine. I admit I hadn’t washed either for some months so they absolutely stank and were covered in dog hair! The dog bed looked a bit lumpy from washing when it came out (I put the spin on 800rpm so it was pretty wrung out and nearly dry!) but it shook back into shape easily. Both the dog bed and the blanket came out smelling nothing like dog, just a lovely ‘just washed’ smell, and all the dog hairs were gone. Lots of room in the machine too, it easily held the dog bed and the blanket with room to add more. Dog not happy with his clean bed, but I am very happy!

  • 12 minute wash cycle

    I had a last minute sports uniform ’emergency’ today- i.e. my son wanted his sports uniform to take to school, it was at the bottom of the clothes basket wet and smelly. Did the 12 minute wash option on the machine, chucked the clothes in the drier and they were ready in about half an hour!

  • Dust Mite Allergy Benefit

    My old top loader had the hot water plumbed into the machine, meaning I could only wash to around 50 deg C. I have always hot washed all bedding and towels due to my sons severe allergies to dust mites. Having washed towels and bedding in the Kleenmaid Eco Sensitive machine he has commented on feeling better when waking in the morning, and being less reliant on his preventer medication. I have been washing the towels and bedding at 70 deg C, and using the extra rinse cycles. It is great to think his need for medication has dropped. The bedding and towels look and smell cleaner than they ever have in the past! An added bonus of the machine is the hot rinse that can be done when washing at lower temperatures – this ensures all clothing and bedding can be adequately treated. Customised wash setting like these are just not available with other machines.

  • Dry Clean Only? Not with the new Kleenmaid!

    I decided to test the new machine on some winter jackets that needed freshening up. One was a wool blend coat, the other a feather filled jacket. I would never have put these in any top loader, but decided to put them in the Kleenmaid eco sensitive machine on the hand wash cycle. The jackets came out like new! I was so impressed that this machine – it will certainly cut down on my dry cleaning bill in the future!

  • Suits washed

    I thought I would give the hand wash cycle a go and put two school blazers in for a wash over the weekend- I usually dry clean them but they came up really well. Grime on collars gone and tomato sauce on a sleeve no longer there! No more trips to the dry cleaner!

  • The dreaded rugby shirts after a rainy Sunday game

    Since we have to test the new Kleenmaid Eco Sensitive we volunteered to clean the rugby jerseys after a Sunday game in the rain and mud. Yet again the machine did not disappoint. The setting for extra dirty, combined with the extra rinse cycle was great. I love how the machine can be so easily programmed to suite the wash that you require. Attached are some photos so you can judge for yourself.

  • Kleenmaid - old versus new

    Having previously owned (and loved) a Kleenmaid top loader washing machine, I was very excited to be selected to trial the new Eco Sensitive washing machine. The old Kleenmaid was reliable, easy to use and always gave a great wash. I wondered how the new machine would compare – I was not disappointed! The Eco Sensitive is again easy to use, and provides the added advantages of being able to customise the wash cycles depending on the wash need. There is the short 12 minute cycle, the versatile 60 minute / 60 deg C cycle and the cotton cycle. My clothes are emerging cleaner than they have in the old machine, without the need for soaking. The kids school shirts look like new with the grubby collars and cuffs white again! I am looking forward to finding out all the features of this machine over the next few weeks!

  • 60 at 60

    So I’ve been trialling the Kleenmaid Eco Sensitive machine for about 2 weeks and during that time I’ve probably done about 14 loads of washing, and I’ve been using all of the different programs to work out what works for me and my family. Day to day the program I’m using the most is the 60 degrees for 60 minutes cycle. It’s quick and means I can get a couple of loads done in the evening, ready to hang out the next morning. I change the temperature to cold for my coloured washes, and love how you can change the temperature even when the cycle has started! My next load is going to be the dog bed and blanket- not sure if it has a special program (hand wash?). Watch this space!

  • 1400 spin option is great

    My current machine spins to 1200 (?rpm I think it’s called!), which is fine in summer. But at this time of year and for the next 4-5 months I find I need to finish the washing off in the clothes dryer, as the shorter days and less sun means my clothes don’t completely dry. I’ve found that putting a load of washing in the Kleenmaid Eco Sensitive with the 1400 spin option (which is the default spin speed) the clothes come out of the machine drier and they are completely drying on the line- so no double handling of washing, and I’m saving on my energy bill!

  • Just brilliant

    This machine is so quiet, I had to really listen to hear it! The allergy wash is particularly good as 2 of my kids suffer from allergies. This wash eliminates the nasties causing allergies. There 15 wash programs, every size and washing level is catered for. And it weighs your washing so it knows how much water to use, which saves water consumption. So many safety and protection pluses in place. An all over excellent machine, super impressed

  • I love my new washing machine, thankyou Kleenmaid.

    After using my 30 year old washing machine I was lucky enough to be in a position to purchase the new Eco Sensitive washing machine from Kleenmaid. I am so impressed the spin dry is amazing cuts the actual drying time for sure. To be able to choose between all the different wash settings/options is a real treat for me. I no longer run from my ugly laundry, it now looks amazing so modern and sleek.

  • My amazing new washing machine, thank you Kleenmaid.

    I recently took advantage of the Kleenmaid offer of saving $1000 off a new Eco Sensitive, I am so glad I did. I love it after using a very old washer for the last 30 years. I especially love that my towels in particular don’t take as long to dry, the spin dry on this washer is amazing. Love all the different settings/options. My laundry is looking quite sexy, so sleek I don’t run from my laundry anymore.

  • Kleenmaid

    Wow this is a great washing machine to Iove. The Kleenmaid Eco Sensitive Washing Machine is sensitive to all my washing needs. the 12 minute eco cycle is so great when you really need something washed in a hurry (like a forgotten choir shirt or gym gear that we have washed in a hurry).

  • 12 minute cycle

    Last night there was a need for sports clothes washed in a hurry – what a saviour to have the 12 minute cycle. Not even my old top loader had a cycle this quick, and the wash was fantastic. The clothes came out much dryer than they would have in the old machine, meaning they could dry overnight and be ready for the next day at school. Best of all – it was not me but my daughter wheo had to operate the machine having never operated it (or any other machine for that matter) as both myself and my husband were out. It is pleasing that the machine is so simple to use, but so effective in it’s wash.

    Every parent loves when the crisis is adverted!

  • Kleenmaid Front loader ve Kleenmaid top loader

    I was always hesitant to buy a front loader, as I though, “I don’t have time to wait hours for a wash .. I’m a busy mum!”. Since moving out of home I have only ever owned 2 machines ( in 23 years). I owned a Kleenmaid that sadly died after 18 years, and would happily have purchased another, as it never missed a beat. Unfortunately Kleenmaid were not available in Australia at that time. I replaced it with another good quality top loader. My top loader cleaned the clothes well, and more importantly QUICKLY! Having trialled the Kleenmaid eco sensitive I am stunned to find that there is a 30 minute cycle which cleans better than my top loader! There is no residue of soap powder on my darks, due to the pre-mixing of the detergent, and the clothes come out less creased, making ironing easier! By not having a centre agitator, I am impressed by the amount of clothes I can fit in. Best of all, being a Kleenmaid machine, I am assured of its reliability long term.

  • It will be like losing a new best friend :(

    Tomorrow is the sad day that I have to say goodbye to the Kleenmaid Eco Sensitive Washing machine. When it was installed the guy installing said to me ” the lady before you didn’t want us to take it”. Now I fully understand why. This machine is quiet, gentle on your clothes but so effective in cleaning. It has a great range of programmes and is so versatile that you can tailor your wash to suit the stain level and the temperature. The times of the wash adjust to this so if the stain level is low than the wash time is reduced. This is one clever machine ( or maybe we can give the designers the credit). I would highly recommend this machine without hesitation.

  • Dare to Doona

    So it’s that time of year when the doona change is happening. I would normally get my doona dry cleaned but seeing as its an 8kg machine i decided to give it a whirl. The doona fitted in well with space. I used a cotton cycle and sat back and awaited the results. My doona is beautifully clean and smells so fresh. Once again I’m really impressed with the results 🙂

    My older sister has one of these washing machines and she has two little ones like me. She loves the child safety element on the machine and I admit I’m jealous as my kids try and fiddle around with our washing machine. She also loves that her clothes wash so well as her little girls love to paint. I have to admit everyone in her family always have well presented clothes

    After a weekend of sports us mothers can dread the cleaning of the sports wear especially if your the mum that has the 20 rugby shirts to wash ! Even the muddiest shirt was sparkling after the wash and the cycle only took one hour and twenty. Very effective on those tough stains

    The dial and settings are so straight forward to use and select I even got my teenager to put on a load of washing. Also being that the display is digital its so easy to work out. Who would of thought a washing machine would spark a teenagers interest ! The hanging the washing out by the teenager was not executed as well as the wash though 😉

  • Allergy Safe Cycle

    Having a child with eczema and dust mite allergies and knowing that this cycle is helping the symptoms is giving me peace of mind when I tuck him in his bed at night in the fresh clean sheets. The allergy safe cycle works up to 4 kgs so you can get those bed sheets in and know that they are super clean.

    When you pull up in your driveway and you can smell your clean washing now that’s fresh ! I am using exactly the same powder and softener as usual but the clothes are just so much fresher. Even on the shortest of washes this is the case. I’m blown away by the effectiveness of this washing machine.

Article ‘A Beautiful Adelaide Blend With A Lighter Alcohol Content!’

‘A Beautiful Adelaide Blend With A Lighter Alcohol Content!’

For lighter wines that still taste like the real deal, Chapel Hill’s Enlightened range is quickly becoming a go-to. These bottles bring all the flavour with noticeably less alcohol, which is why everyone’s falling in love with them.

Best SIPS’ Chapel Hill Enlightened Wines review team put the Rosé and Pinot Grigio through their paces, and the feedback was unanimous: both are fresh, light and perfect for summer sipping without the unwanted morning crogginess.

A rosé with summer written all over it

Chapel Hill’s Enlightened Rosé is bright, crisp and fruity, hitting all the right notes without tipping into the “too sweet” zone. It’s the kind of bottle you reach for at a casual barbecue or any get-together where you want something delicious but easygoing.

It’s exactly this balance of lightness and full flavour in an affordable bottle that has so many fans raving.

“Light, refreshing and honestly just feels like a little moment of peace in a glass. The flavour is this perfect mix of crisp + fruity without being too sweet — literally the kind of rosé you can sip while you finally sit down after a long day.”

Women trying Chapel Hill Enlightened Rosé.
A summer staple … on the lighter side

“Too many of these low alcohol wines just don’t taste enough like the real deal-but this is a sure fire exception. Beautifully refreshing, with a touch of sweetness that’s not overwhelming. A gorgeous colour too, which is a bonus- after all, we also drink either our eyes! Add into the mix a reasonable price point- this rose is a winner!”

“I love a nice glass of Rosé and the Chapel Hill Enlightened Rosé did not disappoint! It’s really light and refreshing and tastes like a really expensive wine. I love that this wine is really affordable, so I can enjoy a beautiful Rosé without breaking the bank more often. Definitely give this one a try!”

If your warm-weather wine rack needs an affordable new staple, this is it.

A Pinot Grigio you’ll be buying again (and again!)

For the white lovers, Chapel Hill’s Enlightened Pinot Grigio is a solid everyday white that ticks all the boxes: crisp, clean, food-friendly and affordable.

Our taste-testers repeatedly praised how balanced and versatile it feels, whether chilled on its own or alongside simple meals and casual gatherings.

“We love a white to pair with our spring/summer lunches and especially our seafood. This option ticked all the boxes …”

Bottle of Chapel Hill Enlightened Pinot Grigio with two full glasses.
A versatile sip you’ll keep reaching for

“I enjoyed the first sip to the last of this Pinot. Anything with pear and citrus is something I want to try and this lived up to that, but with a lighter alcohol content – which I appreciate! Enjoyed over dinner, it paired really nicely with the food I was eating. This wine is something I’d happily recommend to others.”

“The wine offered just the right balance of fruity flavours – fresh and vibrant, but never overpowering or too sharp. It paired beautifully with both our light lunches and dinner, making every meal feel a bit more special. I also appreciated how crisp and refreshing it tasted, perfect for unwinding and enjoying good company. Definitely a Pinot Grigio I’d reach for again.”

  • The warmer weather tends to make alcohol go to my head faster – I’m not a big drinker, but just for that reason I’d seriously consider a low alcohol wine. The Pinot Grigio particularly sound as if I might enjoy it. I might well buy a bottle or two for Christmas.

  • Looks delicious, would be keen to try their wines based off the reviews. Love anything local and the light wine is just an extra win – low alcohol content would be fab for nights with friends where we all still have to drive home afterwards so would be buying for that type of event!

  • Chapel Hill Wines do have quite a good reputation. I like the fact that it is low alcohol content. Personally, I like a very sweet wine but many would like these as they are not so sweet. I wish them well with sales and think it’s good they are doing something about lowering alcohol level.

  • Thanks for sharing this review. It sounds that the taste is good, the price is good and the alcohol content is really low indeed. I do like the fact that they’re light. One of the things I don’t like when you’re drinking a couple of glasses that it fills you up and it affects your appetite

  • I appreciate all the reviews and think this is an excellent way to get your brand out there and known.

  • I like the sound of the Pinot Grigio and will look out for it next time I’m at the bottle shop.

  • I just asked the forum for recommendations on zero alcohol, but this is an attractive option as well! I do enjoy a Rose, so will try this one after all the positive reviews. It’s a shame they don’t have a sparkling in their collection yet! Would have been prefect for all the celebrating at this time of year.

  • I dislike rose, but the pinot grigio sounds like it might suit me. To be honest, the alcohol content doesn’t bother me all that much – I rarely drink more than a glass or two anyway – but it would probably be nice from a general health point of view to know I’m consuming less alcohol.

  • This sounds like the perfect glass. I do love being able to have a few drinks and not be all over the place about me. And as a bubbly girlie from Adelaide myself, I’m sure I’ll find a lot to like about this drop. Crisp and not too sweet, I’m sold and will have to try it.

  • It was the first time for me hearing about the chapel hill brand. And i still recall when i picked up the Pinot Grigio from my local, the staff there actually stopped me and said i picked a winner! She said that it was probably the best Pinot they had available to sell.

  • I’ve heard a lot of good things about Chapel Hill wines and the reviews are always good. I like that they have low alcohol range as I like to have a few glasses when I finally get to have one. Not being too sweet is a bonus that suits me well.

  • The idea of having a lower alcohol content wine without compromising taste is really exciting. There’s nothing worse than feeling “under the weather” from the effects of alcohol. This lovely wine ticks all the boxes, lower alcohol and a refreshing flavour. I’m keen to get the Pinot Grigio in my cart and into my fridge!

  • This wine sounds delightful and really refreshing to enjoy on a summer afternoon. I love that it tastes fresh and crisp and still has the same punch as other wine. It sounds like an absolute delight. I will have to give it a try next time i am at the bottle shop looking for some wine.
