Machine owned for 1 Year.
The Aqualtis has very good points and also very bad points:

This machine has excellent capacity - we even washed a king size 12.5 tog duvet, although it needs care to get it in.
Energy efficient, has a small load option and a faster wash option as well as a 30min fast wash. Some variation possible on temperature and spin speeds.
Very quiet operation compared to some other makes. Takes longer for a wash cycle due to the cold fill.
Neat appearance - the dispenser drawer is behind the door.

The cons are that the door should never be left closed with a damp load in it for more than a few hours as it goes stale - if not dealing with the load right away, leave the door slightly open. Also leave it open for a while after emptying.
Anything padded or with wadding - even a lightly quilted mattress cover - does not spin as dry as other items will @ 1400rpm, and remains very wet - a further fast spin cycle is necessary to remove water from the item(s). (My old Indesit had an excellent spin function @1250rpm and even finished spin cyles on a slow tumble action to minimise creasing.)
The kick plate at the bottom could have a tougher coating.
