Question from Lynda: Asked on 08/03/2026 Does this machine have a drain and spin rather than a rinse and spin cycle
Hi Lynda,The Hoover H-Wash 500 HWB49AMC/1-80 does have a dedicated Drain & Spin cycle, which removes water from the drum and spins the clothes without performing a full wash or rinse, so it’s not just a rinse-and-spin option.Thanks!
Question from Nicola: Asked on 03/03/2026 If i forget something does it give me the option to add a garment
Hi, The Hoover H-Wash 500 HWB49AMC/1-80 does not have a built-in “Add Garment” feature. If you forget an item, you can pause the wash, wait for the door to unlock, add the item, and then resume the cycle, but there’s no automatic prompt or special button to add clothes during the programme.
Thank you.
Question from Mandy Dumighan: Asked on 19/02/2026 On the dial there is one option that let's you choose to do a wash in 14 mins, 30 mins or 44 mins. How can I access each of the wash times.
Hi, On the Hoover H-Wash?500?HWB49AMC/1-80, the 14?min, 30?min and 44?min wash times are part of the “Care (14/30/44?min)” rapid wash programme; you first turn the programme dial to that rapid wash setting, then press the RAPID / Time select button (before pressing Start/Pause) to cycle through and choose 14?min, 30?min or 44?min for that quick wash — the dial alone does not change between those times.
Thank you.
Question from Rosemary George: Asked on 15/02/2026 Does it have a section where you can clean the filter, plus is it easy to get to
Hi Rosemary,Yes — the Hoover H-Wash 500 HWB49AMC/1-80 has a removable drain filter located behind a small access panel at the bottom front of the machine, and it’s easy to reach and clean without taking the appliance apart.Thanks!
Question from Hoover washing machine: Asked on 22/01/2026 Can you do 60 min wash on any temperature?
Hi, The Hoover H-Wash 500 9kg (HWB49AMC/1-80) can run a ~60-minute quick wash, but only at the temperatures preset by the machine’s quick programmes, such as around 40°C. It is not possible to select any temperature, like 60°C, and have the wash complete in 60 minutes. Higher temperature washes always take longer than one hour.
Thank you.
Question from Mary Terry: Asked on 06/01/2026 Does this have a control that allows me to set the time the machine starts
Hi, The Hoover H-Wash 500 HWB49AMC/1-80 has a delayed start timer which allows you to program the wash to start at a later time — up to 24?hours ahead — so the machine will automatically begin the cycle when you want it to.
Thank you.
