15 best washing machines

A functional and inexpensive front-loading washing machine from LG with its pros and cons. The first, first of all, should include the presence of drying. True, buyers in the reviews write that in the process the model heats up a lot and cools down for a long time. But the automatic machine also boasts a steam treatment function that allows you to get rid of bacteria and smooth things out when washing.In addition, the hatch opens 180 degrees, making it easy to load laundry.

Another advantage experts call the direct drive system, in which there are no easy-wearing parts, since the motor is directly attached to the drum. In addition, experts appreciated the SmartDiagnosis mobile diagnostics, which allows transferring data in the event of a breakdown directly to the company's technical support. Of the minuses, it is worth noting the lack of protection against leaks, because the machine is equipped only with a child lock.

The second place in the ranking of narrow washing machines is deservedly occupied by Hotpoint-Ariston RST 703 DW - one of the best-selling models in the Hotpoint-Ariston line. For a relatively low cost (the lowest price in the TOP-3), the user gets a roomy car for 7 kg and the most economical class "A +++". The washing machine consumes only 0.13 kWh/kg, that is, it is 1.5 times the economical competitor from Siemens (first place in the rating). It is also worth highlighting the presence of child protection, an economical washing program and a direct injection function that saves detergents.

The model with the best functionality, rich in all sorts of useful modern additions, deservedly becomes the leader of the TOP of narrow washing machines.So, a compact device of the middle price category received as many as 4 modes for drying clothes, making it easy to choose the option suitable for a particular type of fabric, a thermometer to determine the humidity level, touch control, washing temperature settings, the ability to set the start time of the program and notification of end of washing. In addition, the Candy machine boasts a built-in steam generator for ironing clothes in the drum, which reduces the number of wrinkles on things and reduces the time of subsequent ironing.

The reviews highlight the variety of programs for a variety of fabrics, including silk. Also, the washing machine is supplemented with a direct injection function, so that the detergent goes directly to the fabric and gives better results, which is confirmed not only by ordinary users, but also by experts.

The washing machine of the Belarusian company Atlant is the most budgetary representative of frontal automatic devices. However, the extremely pleasant cost did not prevent the manufacturer from equipping the model with a sufficiently large drum, designed for loading up to 6 kilograms of laundry, intelligent washing control, protection against leaks, power surges and children, as well as the ability to select the spin speed and adjust the washing temperature. At the same time, the automatic machine is not without control over the level of foam and balancing the drum, which makes its use much more efficient, and also prevents premature wear of both the device itself and clothing.

For its price, the model is very well thought out. Due to the fact that the Atlant washing machine is equipped with a removable top cover, it can be placed not only separately, but also under the countertop. The front hatch, which opens 180 degrees, allows you to load and unload laundry with maximum comfort. Also in reviews, Atlant is often praised for its decent washing quality and simple settings.

The next model from the popular Samsung brand is an example of the best modern developments. The unit occupies a leading position in the rating due to its functionality: laundry drying mode, double rinse, unique drum cleaning, the ability to adjust the temperature, etc. Another argument in favor of the machine is its safety.It has built-in leak protection, foam control and a child lock. But the most important advantage is to recognize the capacity. At one time, the machine is able to wash as many as 8 kg of laundry, and dry 6 kg. Such indicators are, of course, impressive. Experts advise Samsung WD80K5410OW as the most functional roomy washing machine.

Advantages:

• multifunctional;
• touch control;
• large capacity;
• beautiful appearance;
• safety.

Flaws:

• high price.

Reliable and modern, though not the most budgetary, automatic machine of the eighth series from Bosch. It is perfect for family use, because it can hold up to 8 kg of laundry in one wash. Large loading is not its main advantage, as it belongs to the premium class, which was appreciated by buyers in their reviews.

For example, it is equipped with such a useful and rare feature as ActiveOxygen, which, when activated, uses active oxygen. This allows you to refresh laundry that has absorbed unpleasant odors, or things that, in principle, cannot be washed. The manufacturer also took care of the quietest operation of the machine by adding the AntiVibration system. True, judging by the reviews, the model draws and drains water loudly. But the Bosch washing machine is 100% leak-proof thanks to AquaStop technology.

One of the best activator-type washing machines, which, unlike most of its kind, is equipped with a laundry spin function. It is also one of the most budgetary among top-loading models and takes up a minimum of space, which is why it is often bought for summer cottages. The machine is also perfect for the elderly, as the controls are simple and intuitive: you can set the timer for washing, spinning and switch the program from standard to delicate.

Judging by the reviews, the laundry remains almost dry after washing, as the speed reaches 1320 rpm. However, it should be borne in mind that the volume of the wringing tank is less than the main one, and you have to manually shift things into it. Another disadvantage is the short power cord, which limits the choice of installation location.

An excellent top-loading washing machine manufactured under the Candy brand. Firstly, it is ideal for a standard family, as it can hold up to 6 kg of laundry.At the same time, the model is quite compact, so it will fit even in a small bathroom. Secondly, the spin speed reaches 1000 revolutions per minute, so that things after washing do not require long drying. Thirdly, the automatic machine consumes water economically, because it has an A ++ energy class.

Given these advantages, experts often call the Candy CST G260L / 1 one of the best in terms of price and quality among top-loading models. However, like many similar machines, it is not equipped with a display, which makes it impossible to understand when the wash is over. In addition, judging by the reviews, for some users the device comes with a defect: the top cover does not close, which makes it impossible to use the washer.

Another budget but functional top-loading washing machine, which, judging by the reviews, boasts real German quality. For example, experts highly appreciated the AquaStop system, which completely protects the model from leaks even in case of water hammer or hose damage. In addition, the drum parks automatically in a position convenient for unloading things, and thanks to SOFT LIFT technology, the hatch opens smoothly.

The manufacturer also provided many washing programs for different types of fabrics, including "Children's underwear" with an additional rinse, as well as express for 15 or 45 minutes. In addition, there is the option of a delayed start up to 9 hours and a quiet mode, when activated, all sound signals are turned off. The latter feature will be especially appreciated by families with children, who will also enjoy loading up to 6.5 kg of laundry.The only thing that buyers lack is a washing program at a temperature of 30 degrees.

For a dryer, this model is inexpensive, but it boasts high quality and wide functionality. Firstly, it holds up to 7 kg of laundry when washing and up to 4 kg during the drying process. Secondly, families with children will like the presence of a silent mode that turns off all sound signals. Thirdly, you can control the model using an application on your smartphone. True, judging by the reviews, its functionality still needs to be improved.

But this automatic machine from Beko is really reliable: the manufacturer gives a 10-year warranty on the inverter motor.

This Hotpoint-Ariston front model can be safely called the largest and most spacious representative of equipment for washing and drying fabrics. The key difference of this washing machine is considered to be the best load in the category, because with its help you can wash 9 kilograms at a time, and dry as many as 6 kilograms of laundry. In addition, this model is one of the most efficient and economical in terms of drying. Thanks to the built-in thermometer, it dries the laundry not according to a randomly set time, but according to the residual moisture, which allows you to rid the fabric of excess moisture without overdrying it and without spending more electricity than necessary.

Also, the strengths of the washing machine include the functions of direct injection or detergent directly on the linen and the ability to smooth the washed items with steam. Experts and specialists appreciate the working qualities of this machine very highly, because it is very functional and made of reliable materials. Buyers, according to reviews, love it for its simple settings and reliability.

In our opinion, this model is the best in terms of price and quality ratio among automatic machines with drying and front loading. It is perfect for a large family thanks to a load of up to 8 kg, as well as quiet operation and the absence of vibration even when spinning.It is very important that the manufacturer did not save on the engine, so it serves the customers for many years, and also saves water and electricity.

True, before buying it is worth considering that all programs with drying are very long and take several hours, and the model heats up very much in the process. But the spin speed reaches 1400 rpm, so things in any case do not remain wet. Customers also appreciated the stylish design of the German typewriter. The main thing is that in the bathroom there is a place for such a roomy model.

However, it should be borne in mind that this development is a bit noisy and lacks a night mode, which means it is unlikely to suit people with light sleep.
