Eco bubble in the washing machine - what is it?
The market is awash with automatic washing machines. They became available to almost every family, and the choice of models is simply colossal. In this regard, manufacturers are trying to attract customers by introducing various innovations into their equipment. Among such technical innovations, the Eco Bubble function stands out, which for quite some time has been announced by Samsung representatives. What is it and “what does it eat”, let's figure it out.
What is this function?
First, let's look at what Eco Bubble is in the Samsung washing machine, how this function works. Eco Bubble is a bubble wash, in other words, washing machines equipped with this function can enrich a mixture of water and powder with air. The air-rich mixture penetrates better between the fibers of the fabric, removing even stubborn stains.
A device that foams a mixture of water and powder is located between the nozzle of the dispenser and the tank of the washing machine. From a technical point of view, the Eco Bubble device is useful in that it saves the time required for dissolving and foaming a dry powder or washing gel.
Note! The Eco Bubble device is a special instantaneous blower that quickly prepares an air-rich mixture of detergent and water.
In other words, in this case, a ready-made, foamed mixture of water and detergent is fed into the tank of the machine. In the tank of a conventional automatic washing machine, water with semi-dissolved powder is supplied and it takes time until the powder is dissolved and begins to act. The question arises, why not turn on the washing mode for a longer time in a normal machine so that the powder dissolves and launders everything properly or does not use an instant detergent? But let's not get ahead of ourselves.
Advantages and disadvantages of technology
The manufacturer of washing machines with Eco Bub technology enthusiastically talks about the advantages of their technology. Like, she is one step ahead of all other washing machines. Proving its claim, the manufacturer cites a number of advantages of washing machines with Eco Bubble, let's denote them.
- A mixture of water and powder saturated with oxygen penetrates many times into the fabric of dirty laundry, which means that it is much better to wash it.
- In a mixture saturated with oxygen, the fabric is washed faster, which means that too long washing programs are not needed. Even on a short program, everything is washed off remarkably.
- Thanks to Eco Bubble, linen does not hang in the drum for hours, which means the fabric wears out less, and as a result, things last longer.
- Eco Bubble technology saves water and energy. Firstly, to create an oxygen-enriched mixture, 30% less water is needed than for a conventional washing machine, with the same size tank and drum. And secondly, you do not need to heat the water very much, with Eco Bubble clothes are washed at 300 same as in a regular car at 600.
- A washing machine with Eco Bubble completely dissolves even not very high-quality powder, which means that it then does not remain either in things or in the machine. This is very valuable if you need to wash clothes for an allergic person or a small child.
Talking about the advantages of a washing machine with a similar function, one can not help but say a few words about the disadvantages. So far, we have not found any serious disadvantages other than the price; for cars with Eco Bubbles, the price is higher and technical complexity. According to the masters, the unit that creates the mixture enriched with oxygen is far from the most reliable element and may well fail.
Note! We will return to the shortcomings, since we have not yet watched people's reviews on washing machines with Eco Bub technology. Perhaps some other disadvantages can be found.
Overview of cars
To have a more detailed idea of the technology equipped with the Eco Bub function, let's do a little review and see the specific models of washing machines from Samsung, which have been on the market for quite some time.
Samsung WWW10H9600EW / LP.Spacious automatic washing machine with a load of up to 10 kg, an electronic touch screen and Eco Bubble function. In addition to the volumetric drum, the touch screen and the Eco Bubble function, the model has many advantages: an inverter motor, an adjustable spin speed from 300 to 1600 rpm, a delay in starting the washing program, automatic laundry weighing, half load, easy ironing, accelerated washing and many others. The price is about 100,000 rubles and this is its most significant drawback.
Samsung WW60J6210DS. Another washing machine from a well-known manufacturer equipped with Eco Bubble. The characteristics of this model are more modest than that of Samsung WWW10H9600EW / LP, but the price is more affordable about 40,000 rubles. The drum can be loaded only up to 6 kg, actually a little more than five are included. Spin speed up to 1200 rpm. In addition to the Eco Bubble function, this washing machine has: a delay in starting, half loading the drum, accelerated washing, and non-spin washing.
Important! Most models of Samsung washing machines in the characteristics of the volume and capacity of the drum are overestimated, probably they have some kilograms in Korea!
Samsung WW90J6410CW. This model is also not cheap, although it is assembled in China, its average cost is about 50,000 rubles. The washing machine has a capacious drum up to 9 kg, actually holds 7.5, Eco Bubble function, spin up to 1400 revolutions, delayed start, half load and more. It is programmed for 14 washing modes: cotton, synthetics, delicate washing, wool, dark fabrics, children's clothes and others. There is also protection in the form of foam control, self-diagnosis of malfunctions and children's intervention.
Samsung WD80J7250GW / LP. About 70,000 rubles will cost you this model, equipped with the Eco Bubble function. This washing machine is also assembled in China, it has a drum with a load of up to 8 kg, an extraction of up to 1200 rpm, an easy ironing function, and most importantly, its arsenal has excellent drying. The disadvantage of the model can be considered the absence leak protectionthat for such an expensive model is unacceptable.
People reviews
With the models of washing machines equipped with the Eco Bubble function we met, now we learn the independent opinions of people about them. Some have already managed to use Eco Bubble machines for 3-4 years, so they have something to tell us.

I can not say anything about the advantages of the Eco Bub function, because I have only negative emotions from this washing machine. I’ll just list all the shortcomings that I discovered, and you yourself think.
- Monstrously stinks of rubber, and washed clothes then also stink. Over time, the smell does not disappear.
- She tries to wash in a very small amount of water, the clothes absorb everything and it turns out that the machine is talking just wet things without water. From this, the quality of the wash, to put it mildly, is not up to par.
- It makes a lot of noise, and the noise is strong during washing, and even during the spin cycle, generally “hello to neighbors”. Before Samsung, I had 3 different cars (Siemens, Bosch and Electrolux), no one made such noise.
- It vibrates a lot, on old cars I had bottles and boxes of detergents, but nothing can be put on this one - everything will shake off!

I bought this machine 2 years ago, and my disappointment knew no bounds. It seems that the machine does not erase at all. You put things in, after 40 minutes you get the same dirty laundry, only wet. That's the way to save water, of course, you can not spend water, if not wash. Outerwear was most infuriated with the regime, what kind of regime is this, if you can’t wash down jackets or things from sintepon on it, in short delirium. Do not buy this machine, complete nonsense.

They brought me this miracle car 3 days ago, here I am sitting and thinking how to take it back to the store. I gave a ton of money for nothing. Eco Bubble doesn’t wash this vaunted clothes; my old Siemens, who had plowed for 12 years, washed better, without any “Bubbles”. In addition, she jumps a lot, makes noise and stinks terribly. In short, I’ll give it to the store, and in return I will take Siemens or LG.
In this article, we have provided only a few examples of people's feedback on washing machines with Eco Bub technology. In total, we reviewed about 400 reviews of such machines from different portals - 80% negative.
To summarize, we note the function of bubble washing Eco Bubble is a well-promoted, advertised technology, but in reality people testify that there is nothing good in it. Washing machines equipped with Eco Bubble often wash worse than usual, but are more expensive. In general, think for yourself whether to buy or not to buy such a machine, we have provided independent information, but we will not engage in anti-advertising.

The machine doesn’t wash well and is very noisy, it shakes a lot. Bullshit technique.
We bought such a car yesterday, it also shook like crazy during the first wash, called the service. There they advised to carefully read the instructions =)
People, there just behind you had to unscrew the transport 4 bolts and adjust the legs !! After that, they started it again, it stands still, it does not jump! Squeezes perfectly! And by the way, if it doesn’t wash off, can you have a bad powder?) It washed all the spots perfectly, both adults and children !!! Things are snow-white! Super machine! Just a fairy tale!
Immediately it was impossible to unscrew the bolts or what?
I agree, a good machine, I am satisfied. Washes by 5. Depresses also super. Quiet, spinning makes a little noise.
I have a typewriter for less than a month I like to wash everything perfectly. It works quietly. In the house, a small child is sleeping and you can’t even hear what is working.
Bought a car half a year ago. It erases like everyone else. No better, no worse. There is a docking door. Actually, because of this, they took it. What kind of Eco Bubble is there, I did not even pay attention when buying. Just now I started reading what kind of function it is. Of the minuses, I want to note that there really is an unpleasant smell of rubber, and small things (usually socks) roll into the gap (it is huge) between the door and the drum (rubber there). And I get them all the time and stretch them by hand.
The machine is good, it does an excellent wash, wringes well and works quietly. The truth sometimes stinks of rubber, but on things, this does not affect.
What kind of people! The idiocy of pure water ... Samsung has excellent washing machines, modern, technological. And what jumps, so you need to carefully read the instructions. Unscrew the transport bolts, calibrate the drum to take into account the weight of the laundry machine. And if it doesn’t wash, the equipment has nothing to do with it. Do you want to rub everything off with powder for 3 rubles? But this does not happen. Just buy good powders, that's all. Good luck to all!
A month ago, I bought a samsung washer with ecobable. Washes perfectly and doesn’t stink with any rubber. True, it was collected not in China or Russia, but in Poland.
It erases normally, everything is quiet and does not stink of rubber. Not a gram is shaking, but squeezes at 1200 rpm is not even heard at all. Only the music turns on after washing, you can hear it 🙂
The car is very good. It is not true that it makes noise and does not erase well.
I just bought it, so I won’t say anything about “magic bubbles” - there is something inside there, and the foam appears earlier than on the old typewriter. It erases normally - 15 minutes, and three shirts with a pack of socks are washed. Yes, very small objects (small socks, scarves) can be put on glass, but bags of small things are recommended everywhere. The smell was on the first launches.
About the jumps and grimaces - guys, you need to put the machine on a level floor, it is advisable to level it. And observe the banal rules: do not overload, do not underload, and do not wait for the ideal distribution of one, the only object on the drum.
I myself am a seller in a household appliance store. Every day I deal not only with washing machines, but also with televisions and refrigerators. I, as a seller, have a greater preference among steers. I give cars SAMSUNG c ECO Bubble. These cars are really better than the LG c 6MDD. You should not buy a washer with a direct inverter, because as soon as the first three years it seems to work quietly, and then a nightmare begins. There will be strong vibration, knocking, noise and finally breaking the shaft or drum clutch.
I'd rather buy SAMSUNG than LG. Moreover, only they have a ceramic heater, which means that you do not need to buy a water softener. It is only necessary to turn on drum cleaning once every three months (if such a regime exists). Or, throw a simple unnecessary towel on your own and wash it with a cleaner for washing machines at high temperature.
We have been using Samsung with IVF at 9 kg for 4 months already, after 2x Boshev at 6 kg. The drum is the same size as Bosch. Still, you don’t cram more. But I liked that after pressing the Stop button, the door lock is immediately removed, which is very convenient when additionally throwing forgotten things. Bosch, unlike unlocked, seems to be within 3 minutes. Erases neither worse nor better. There is no rubber smell (made in Turkey). True, it works significantly louder than Bosch. We do not know the quality of Samsung, but the 1st Bosch worked 12 years without a single repair (Germany). Washed up to small rugs, until it is morally obsolete. 2nd Bosch 3rd year working without problems.
In general, a chic car 🙂 It erases well, wring out even better. We are happy with the purchase!
Bought a Samsung Eco Dough typewriter. Probably 10 times were erased. No shortcomings were revealed. It doesn’t jump, it doesn’t even move. Washes well. Squeezes perfectly. It is quiet. No odors were found. The laundry is always clean and smells good after powder and conditioner.
We have been using this machine for 3 years. When buying, the decisive factor was the ceramic heater. On the bubbles did not go in cycles. It erases perfectly! Noisy is not outrageous! My favorite attraction is laundry at night. And they all sleep beautifully. The doors to all rooms are always open - the cat and dog do not tolerate closed doors. The main thing is to set the machine in level and not overload! She also tells me when she needs to clean the drum. The only negative for me is a quick wash for 15 minutes at 20 degrees. I psychologically cannot accept this fact.
15 minutes is in cold water and if you do not choose any options. Choose 40 degrees, additional rinse and there will be 40 minutes.
Very disappointed. Faith in Samsung has staggered. The design is cool, does not jump, does not jump, is not noisy, but it erases badly. Just twists wet clothes with foam and that's it. After washing, stains remain, the clothes smell strongly of detergent. We do not erase it with powder, but with an expensive gel, with the previous Samsung without EcoBable these problems were not. We add water. Sometimes you have to wash again. We decided to purchase another. The task of the machine is to save water and that's it! A bucket of water is used for all washing. And for me it is important that it is removed not only from dirt, but also from detergent. So that you can sleep on bedding without chemical smells.
The machine is initially set up to save water. If you do not need this, choose the intensive soak and rinse options. If not enough, there is a rinse + spin mode. There, the floor of a drum of water is gaining.
The machine is wonderful. Washes well. Rubber does not stink or jump.
You do not stink of rubber, because you use chemical powders! We are brought from Finland hypoallergenic, odorless! And the machine is just awful! They stink after her with rubber! Take care of your health and get rid of the toxic machine as quickly as possible! Which we did.
I read bad and good reviews about the Eco babble machine, I bought it half a year ago, I do not see any minuses. It perfectly cleans any stains, on children's clothes, as well as on adults, rinses well. And squeezes too. And the fact that you have thunders and jumps, carefully read the installation instructions. It is necessary to unscrew the anchor bolts, calibrate the drum, and everything will be fine.
Great Samsung machine. We do not use it for long, 10-15 washes were made. The machine erases perfectly, clothes are washed off remarkably, wringes out well - we get almost dry. No stains, no traces of powder. It smells ok. It stands as if rooted to the spot, almost silent, we look into the bathroom to see whether it erases or not. When you bought a powder more expensive in general, everything is super. We chose between Samsung and Bosch until we regret it.
We have Samsung WF0707WJW. Washes flawlessly for several years. It's funny to read indignant reviews about the smell of rubber, vibration, poor washing. WW60J5213JW is a great car. Obviously, this article was written by competitors.
More than 4 years normally erases.
It erases better, the previous one was Indizit.
I do not see any bubbles! Laundry washes so-so. In general, over time, all machines begin to wash poorly. White linen comes out gray. The machine itself is noisy. Especially the pump.
