Candy Quick Pro GWD 485S6-80 is a front-load washer dryer listed with 8kg washing and 5kg drying capacity. Quick cycles and a claimed soft drum suit buyers prioritising shorter wash options, while the lower drying capacity means a full wash load may need splitting before drying.

Pros
- Separate wash and dry capacities make the 8kg wash and 5kg dry limits clear for planning loads.
- Sixteen listed wash cycles and quick-wash options offer cycle choice for everyday laundry.
- 1400 RPM maximum spin speed is stated in the listing.
Cons
- Drying capacity is 5kg, below the listed 8kg washing capacity, so some wash loads may need dividing for drying.

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing uses several distinct energy figures and claims: its title says A-10%, a feature says it improves the A Energy Class by 10 percent, and the details report 43 Kilowatt Hours annually. These figures describe different claims and should not be treated as a single confirmed rating. The listed 13 Kilograms is the sum of the separate 8kg wash and 5kg dry capacities, not the capacity for either operation. The claimed quiet-motion and 20-year durability statements are manufacturer claims, not independently established performance.

The page provides aggregate customer ratings but no written feedback summary. The overall rating is positive in broad terms, though a portion of ratings are low, so it does not establish how buyers felt about specific features such as cycle times, drying capacity or noise. Consider whether the stated 5kg drying limit fits your laundry routine.
