Mascom International stocks the Hisense 8SE801S 8.5kg Twin Tub at KSh 21,200, brand new and sealed, available now at our Nairobi CBD store. The Hisense 8SE801S 8.5kg Twin Tub combines a main washing drum with a separate spin dryer, a removable lint filter and adjustable water levels inside a rust-resistant white plastic body. You will find it at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, where our team can walk you through a demonstration cycle. For one extra kilogram over our smallest twin tub, this model handles the bulkier loads that family life produces every week.
Designed for parents juggling school runs, the Hisense 8SE801S 8.5kg Twin Tub tackles the Sunday-evening pile of grey uniforms, games kits and bedsheets that hand-washing turns into an exhausting chore. House helps across Kenya appreciate that the controls are physical knobs rather than touch menus, so training takes minutes. Because you pour water in yourself, households in Ruiru, Kitengela and Syokimau that rely on borehole deliveries or rooftop tanks can wash whenever the drums are full. The lint filter traps fluff from towels and sweaters, keeping dark trousers cleaner before Monday morning.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that list appliances without a showroom, Mascom International lets you lift the lids and inspect the Hisense 8SE801S 8.5kg Twin Tub before committing. At KSh 21,200 it costs KSh 9,800 less than our 11kg twin tub, which makes it the sensible middle step for a family of growing children. Customers across Nairobi report that the bigger drum cuts one full round from their weekend routine. Pay on arrival with cash or Lipa na M-Pesa, or collect the Hisense 8SE801S 8.5kg Twin Tub in person on Kimathi Street.
Common Questions About the Hisense 8SE801S 8.5kg Twin Tub
What does the extra kilogram on the Hisense 8SE801S mean for a family?
The Hisense 8SE801S washes 8.5kg per cycle, one kilogram more than the 7.5kg WSQB753W, and that gap equals several school shirts or a heavy bath towel. Mascom International prices it at KSh 21,200, only KSh 1,100 above the smaller model. Over three years, that difference works out to roughly one shilling a day. For a household that currently squeezes in an extra round every weekend, the larger drum saves water, electricity and an hour of standing beside the machine.
Does the Hisense 8SE801S 8.5kg Twin Tub have a lint filter?
Yes, the Hisense 8SE801S 8.5kg Twin Tub includes a built-in, removable lint filter that catches fluff and loose threads during washing. Without one, that fluff resettles on dark uniforms and trousers, leaving them looking dusty even after a full wash. Rinse the filter under a tap after every few loads so water keeps circulating freely. Families washing woollen school jumpers and fleece blankets notice the difference most, especially during the cold July and August months in Nairobi.
Can I run the Hisense 8SE801S on borehole or tank water?
Yes, the Hisense 8SE801S works with borehole, tank or bucket water because you fill the washing drum yourself rather than relying on a pressurised tap. That matters in fast-growing areas like Ruiru, Kitengela and Syokimau, where many homes buy water by the bowser or store it on the roof. Adjustable water levels let you match the fill to the load size. A smaller fill for a half load conserves water that cost you money to deliver.
Should I choose the Hisense 8SE801S or the 11kg WSRB113W?
Choose the Hisense 8SE801S if your weekly laundry fits two or three rounds, and move to the WSRB113W if bedding and blankets dominate the pile. Mascom International sells the WSRB113W at KSh 31,000, which is KSh 9,800 more for 2.5kg of extra wash capacity per cycle. That upgrade pays off for households with several teenagers or frequent overnight guests. For a family with young children, the 8.5kg drum covers most weeks without the added cost.
Can I pay with M-Pesa when the Hisense 8SE801S is delivered?
Yes, Mascom International delivers the Hisense 8SE801S on a pay-on-arrival basis, and you can settle with Lipa na M-Pesa or cash once the carton reaches your door. Check that the packaging is sealed and the machine is undamaged before you send any money. This arrangement protects buyers in Nakuru, Kisumu and Eldoret who cannot visit our Nairobi CBD store. Our team confirms the payment number by phone so you never send funds to an unverified till.
Is the Hisense 8SE801S easy for a house help or an older parent to use?
Yes, the Hisense 8SE801S uses rotary knobs for washing time, spin time and draining, so there are no screens, menus or error codes to decode. A first-time user usually learns the full routine after a single supervised load. The wash drum and spin dryer sit side by side under separate lids, which makes it obvious where clothes go next. Mascom International staff can demonstrate the process in store, and a short video call works for buyers outside Nairobi.
Who should buy the Hisense 8SE801S 8.5kg Twin Tub, and who should skip it?
The Hisense 8SE801S fits families with young children, shared houses and anyone outgrowing a smaller twin tub. Skip it if your household is large enough that laundry already takes three or more rounds; the WSRB143W 13.5kg twin tub at KSh 37,500 is the better fit. Skip it as well if nobody is home during the day to move clothes. The WT3K1123UB 11kg top loader at KSh 47,000 completes washing, rinsing and spinning unattended when your water supply is steady.
How do I get the best spin results from the Hisense 8SE801S?
Load the Hisense 8SE801S spin dryer evenly, pressing clothes down around the centre so the basket stays balanced as it gathers speed. An uneven heap causes rattling and can stop the spinner early. Spin heavy items such as jeans and towels separately from delicate blouses, which need less time. Hang everything soon after spinning, since clothes left bunched in the dryer crease and take longer to dry, particularly during humid coastal weather in Mombasa.
How do I care for the Hisense 8SE801S so it serves the family for years?
Care for the Hisense 8SE801S by draining both drums fully after the last load and leaving the lids open so the inside dries. Rinse the lint filter regularly, and wipe detergent residue from the rim with a damp cloth. Keep the machine off bare soil or wet floors, ideally on a level tiled surface. Unplug it before cleaning and during storms. These habits prevent musty smells and keep the moving parts free of grit picked up from dusty compounds.
Technical Specifications
Load Capacity for Family Laundry
- 8.5kg wash capacity holds a family's uniforms and a set of bedsheets together, reducing weekend rounds.
- One kilogram more than the 7.5kg model adds room for bulky towels or a small blanket per cycle.
- A twin-drum layout lets one batch wash while the previous batch spins, cutting idle waiting time.
- Top-loading lids make it easy to drop in a missed sock or handkerchief while the drum is turning.
- Sorting whites and colours into separate rounds is simpler with a drum large enough for full batches.
- Supervised cycles let you pull out a bleeding red shirt before it stains the rest of the load.
Spin Dryer and Line-Drying Benefits
- A dedicated spin dryer removes excess water so clothes dry faster on balcony or compound lines.
- Quicker drying keeps uniforms ready for Monday mornings even when weekend weather turns cloudy.
- Independent spin control lets you re-spin a soaked duvet cover without touching the washing drum.
- Lighter, spun laundry is easier for children to help carry out to the drying line.
- Separate spinning protects delicate items, since you choose how long each batch stays in the dryer.
- Spinning bedding before hanging reduces the drip onto floors when drying indoors during heavy April rains.
Filtration and Fabric Care
- A built-in removable lint filter traps fluff before it resettles on dark trousers and skirts.
- Easy removal means the filter can be rinsed under a tap in moments after the final load of the day.
- Cleaner water circulation reduces the grey film that builds up on woollen jumpers over a school term.
- Catching loose threads early also helps protect the drain path from small blockages over time.
- Washing fleece and towels apart from smooth fabrics keeps the filter working at its best.
- Less fluff on clothes means less time spent brushing blazers and jumpers before the school bus arrives.
Water Management and Hoses
- Adjustable water levels match the fill to each load, saving water on lighter midweek washes.
- Manual filling works with borehole supply, bowser deliveries, rooftop tanks or a simple bucket.
- No dependence on mains water pressure suits upper-floor flats where taps often run weakly.
- A drain hose carries used water to a floor drain or outside gully once the wash finishes.
- Reusing clean rinse water for the next dirty load stretches costly delivered water further.
- Draining into a bucket instead of a gully lets you reuse grey water for mopping floors or flushing toilets.
Construction and Corrosion Resistance
- A rust-resistant plastic body withstands splashes and the damp air of laundry rooms and bathrooms.
- Plastic housing avoids the peeling paint and corrosion seen on older steel-bodied machines.
- The white exterior suits most kitchens and service areas, and wipes clean easily after use.
- A lighter build than steel washers makes moving the unit into a back yard or store room simple.
- Sealed factory packing from Mascom International confirms the unit has never been opened or used.
- Smooth plastic surfaces resist the soap scum and staining that build up around older enamel tubs.
Operating Controls and Daily Routine
- Rotary knobs set washing time, spin time and draining, giving full manual control over each stage.
- Physical controls stay readable in dim service rooms where small digital screens are hard to see.
- Separate lids for each drum make it clear where clothes go next, which simplifies training house helps.
- Without menus or error codes, most everyday issues come down to checking the plug, lid or hose.
- Staff at our Kimathi Street store can demonstrate a full wash, spin and drain before purchase.
- Manual stages let you add an extra rinse for school sports kits caked with field mud.
