Gorenje W 72ZY2/RV

The engineers of the Serbian company, which produces reliable and durable household appliances, were able to please consumers with a fairly high-quality model. This washing machine has one important feature that distinguishes it from other models included in our review - it does not have to be connected to a centralized water supply system. The overall dimensions are quite decent: 85x70x70 cm. The body looks laconic, has strict line geometry, and is painted in a classic white color. The main control element here is the rotary control. There are also several buttons that allow you to adjust the water heating temperature and some other cycle parameters. The diameter of the loading hatch window is 34 cm, and the glass has a carefully thought-out shape, which also helps to increase washing efficiency.

In total, there are 18 washing modes at once, so the machine is able to cope even with stubborn dirt in any type of fabric. When developing the device, the latest Sensor IQ technology was used, which is responsible for optimizing the selected cycle depending on how much laundry was placed in the drum. The electronic unit has several protection systems - one of them protects the machine from the formation of too much foam, the other prevents the engine and other elements from burning out in the event of power surges or even power surges.

Advantages:

There is no need to connect to the central water supply system - the main thing is that there is access to drainage;
You can load a decent amount of things – up to 7 kg of dry laundry;
A high washing class is ensured by the original shape of the drum;
The housing is stable even during the most intense vibration.

Flaws:

There is no delayed start of washing;
There is no sound alarm to indicate the end of the wash cycle.

AEG L 6FBI48 S

One of the most modern and high-tech models in our review. The machine is able to automatically adjust the cycle duration depending on how much laundry has been loaded into the drum. Thanks to this function, the structure of the fabric retains its original shape, and things do not receive any mechanical damage. In addition, this technology allows you to save water and electricity, as well as time. There is a ProTex stainless steel drum installed here, which was developed by engineers specifically to take very careful care of clothes. You can find a very large number of holes in it. This helps the fabric not to stretch during the spin process and maintain its original shape.

2. Samsung WW80K62E07S

Another fairly spacious model that can fit up to 8 kg of laundry. This equipment is considered one of the most reliable among all those presented on the market today - manufacturers analyzed the number of user calls to service centers and found that there were a minimal number of them compared to other models and brands. Another important point associated with this device is its manufacturability. In particular, a special application was developed for the machine, running on the iOS and Android platforms, which allows you to control it remotely. Owners also note that the product has a direct drive, thanks to which the electric motor operates almost silently.

In the area of working with linen, it uses air bubble washing technology, which helps remove all particles of dirt from the fabric, restoring it to its original freshness. The machine consumes the minimum possible amount of electricity (energy efficiency class A+++), the highest drum rotation speed during spinning is 1200 rpm. There are 14 operating programs, and the machine can automatically clean the drum of various types of contaminants.

Siemens WS 12T440

This washing machine is rightfully considered by users to be the most reliable and economical in operation. The build quality of this product is beyond praise. Not only the developers, but also the craftsmen themselves who repair such household appliances note that this equipment rarely breaks down. It offers the lowest energy consumption and low water consumption of just 38 liters per cycle - the minimum for washing machines with a drum capacity equivalent to 7 kg of dry laundry. The control here is intelligent; 15 washing programs are provided at once. The housing is reliably protected from the slightest leaks.

Another important point is the presence of a reliable and convenient system of protection against accidental start-up. It is activated by locking the control panel itself or the drum door. The latter is automatically balanced during the spin process, so no vibrations occur here. Like most washing machines included in our rating today, there is also a system for monitoring the volume of foam generated. The minimum cycle time is only 15 minutes - very convenient when you need to quickly add freshness to things. Spin can be adjusted manually. If, after finishing washing, you open the compartment where detergents are poured, then excess water from there will flow down the rubber band of the drum - this helps prevent water stagnation.

Advantages:

Compact overall dimensions;
It works quite quietly;
Reliable leakage protection system;
The engine also has a surge protection system;
There are many operating modes, the shortest of which takes only 15 minutes.

Flaws:

Except for the relatively high price was not found.

conclusions

When deciding to purchase a washing machine, you should pay attention to several points:

Experts in the field of household appliances call important parameters the volume of the drum and the speed of its rotation during spinning of washed clothes ;
It is also necessary to take into account the parameters of the electrical appliance, the type of control and the availability of additional programs ;
the built-in delayed start timer will simplify working with the device and give you the opportunity to independently choose the best time for washing;
The presence of multi-level protection against water leaks and a child safety lock will make operation safer.

Used washing machine: age

Employees of repair shops claim that their contingent has become dramatically “younger.” Increasingly, owners of cars that have been used for a year or two are asking for repairs.

The quality of washing machines has rapidly deteriorated over the past three years, when most brands opened their production facilities in Russia and other post-Soviet countries. But models produced in their “historical homeland” - in Germany, Italy, the United States - can work for ten years or longer without any problems.

Experts recommend purchasing used washing machines if their age does not exceed five to six years. This, on the one hand, guarantees that the car was not produced in Lipetsk, on the other hand, there are high chances that its service life will last for five to seven years.

In addition, the functionality of five-year-old cars is still quite modern.
