Miele and Bosch are good but Miele are too expensive although they are worth it and Bosch are a bit noisy and they only do one 1600rpm washer (i think) in the UK and that is an 8kg model!

We have a new Hotpoint. It is a WML540 in Graphite. It spins at a maximum of 1400rpm.It can wash up to 6kg of clothes.So far it has been pretty good.It has give me one error code though but i just reset the machine and it was fine.
Here is the one i used to have.These came with 800rpm,100rpm and 1200rpm (The one I had).Mine died of Motor brushes.This isnt my photo it is off ebay. This is also the Washer Dryer Version. The washer was just this one without the second dial:
