Reviews of the Hotpoint Ariston RSM 601 W washing machine

The powerful, attractive free-standing washing machine Hotpoint Ariston RSM 601 W may well become the most popular model from Ariston, successfully sold in Russia over the past three years. Just look on the Internet and see what a stir there is around this model. Let’s plunge into this “whirlpool” of reviews and try to understand why people liked this machine so much.

Positive

Elena, Orel

After the fire, the apartment had to undergo major repairs and completely update the furnishings. I didn’t have enough money for everything, I also had to get into debt, so I didn’t even think about buying an expensive car, although I really wanted to. And so, the day came when my husband and I went to choose a “home assistant”. My husband liked it washing machine Indesit WIUN 105, apparently because it is inexpensive and the sales specialist strongly recommended it.

I didn't agree. Judge for yourself, this machine has a load capacity of only 3.5 kg, and it’s quite small and looks poor. After much deliberation, the choice fell on the Hotpoint Ariston RSM 601 W. Even a quick glance at it is enough to understand that this machine is better than Indesit. When we launched it, I realized that I was 100% right. After three months of use, I can already tell you something about it.

• The drum is spacious, even large items can be washed, it rotates smoothly and without unnecessary noise.
• There is almost no vibration, even when you turn on the spin cycle to maximum. This makes the machine work quieter than the same Indesit.

I conducted an experiment, as in the advertisement, placing a mug filled to the brim with tea on the lid of the machine.At the same time, the washer worked and didn’t spill a drop, just like that.

• There is a screen and normal electronic controls, without any light bulbs like on the Soviet Record TV.
• The machine is equipped with a convenient and understandable child lock system; the baby will not turn it off so easily.

In general, something like this. The machine costs a little more than Indesit, but not by much, but in terms of functionality it differs very significantly. I’m generally silent about the appearance and build quality, it’s just heaven and earth.

This is simply a great model. I even think that its price is a little low. The assembly is very good, this can be seen both externally and in operation. This is the same as starting a Lada Kopeyka first, and then some Mazda 6 and listening to how their engines work. It's just not comparable. So is the Hotpoint Ariston RSM 601 W, I think it can safely be placed on a par with business class washing machines. My wife likes the way she washes large items; she has never had a problem with it, although she shoves it into the drum with all her heart. Five points!

Nadezhda, Krasnodar

Hotpoint Ariston RSM 601 W deserves the highest score, without a doubt. Here you have design, assembly, and work. Before this, I had never seen a machine spin a drum at a speed of 1000 rpm and still be quiet. Of course, I am far from a master, but I think that the engineers did a great job on this model. Well done, you made a car for people!

Ekaterina, Bor

After four months of doing laundry, I finally fell in love with my washing machine. I got it cheap, so I didn’t expect anything special from this machine. But she made me so happy that there are simply no words. It, like expensive models, has an additional load of laundry, and it always works.It has a lot of functions, and there is nothing superfluous, everything is just necessary. It is quiet, excellent at washing dirty clothes and does not require a large amount of powder. I pour in half the dose indicated on the pack. I am very happy with the purchase and recommend it to everyone!

Maxim, Rostov-on-Don

I bought it last year and use it 2-3 times a week. I have only good things to say about this narrow washing machine. Because she deserves nothing else but warm words. During the year of “living in my house” she got into several scrapes. Once I took it to the dacha, and the movers dropped it during transportation. The second time she experienced a severe power surge that killed my computer, refrigerator and dishwasher. The washing machine was working at that moment, but the jump did not have a fatal effect on it. For your money, this is just a great option, take it, you won’t regret it!

After the incident with the power surge, I installed an expensive stabilizer, out of harm’s way, otherwise it’s too expensive to change all the equipment at once.

Alina, Moscow

Three washing machines were required to rent out the apartments. The selection criteria were simple: indestructibility (otherwise you get all sorts of tenants), low cost. I came across Hotpoint Ariston RSM 601 W, and I ordered three pieces at once, for which I received a 15% discount on the entire amount, as a good buyer. A year and a half has already passed. During this time, the machines have completely paid for themselves, but they continue to work and their appearance is still quite decent. When I quit this business, I’ll sell them at some flea market. A good buy!

Ivan, Serpukhov

The main task of any machine is to wash; I’m not interested in anything else.When I bought the Ariston RSM 601 W at the Hotpoint store, I directly asked the seller whether the machine washed normally or not. He couldn’t even answer me, he looks at the characteristics and reads to me what this machine has. I can read it myself, you tell me how the technology works. In general, I was dissatisfied with the seller, but the machine I got was good, it washes, spins and rinses perfectly, which means it has already earned its five points!

Maria, Kemerovo

I really like it when the machine has many washing programs and there is plenty to choose from. Ariston has programs that make your eyes wide open, and everything you need. I especially like the extra rinse mode, because I buy cheap powders, and you can’t rinse them out of your laundry in one go. This machine is generally very economical, I noticed this from my electricity and water bills. Add to this the savings on powder, and it turns out to be a real “golden washing machine”. Very pleased with the choice!

Larisa, Kazan

I do a lot of laundry, but in our large family it’s impossible to do it any other way. A year ago, my husband, without consulting me, bought an inexpensive Hotpoint Ariston RSM 601 W washing machine. I gave him a scandal, I thought it would break quickly, but it still washes to this day, almost like a professional one. Nothing is done to her and the linen is always spotlessly clean. I give the machine a five!

Dmitry, Tomsk

I recently purchased this washing machine for my bachelor apartment. The option is inexpensive and angry. The machine is quite reliable, washes very well, has all sorts of functions, but I don’t need them. The design of the machine is modern, and it works quietly. There's almost nothing to complain about. I noticed a couple of times that there was a little powder left in the tray, but I think this happens with all washing machines. Five points!

Negative

Vladimir, Magnitogorsk

Small flaws in this machine just infuriate me. The same shipping bolts are unscrewed in a crooked way, one careless movement and you’ll spend half a day fishing the washer out of the bowels of the case. The legs are also tightened “Chinese style”, there are not even lock nuts. Was it really a pity for the manufacturer to install two lock nuts so that the legs of the machine could be properly fixed? Didn't like it, rating two!

Alexandra, St. Petersburg

At first, when we first purchased the car, I was very happy, but then my joy disappeared on its own. After two months of washing, I discovered that the hatch door lock would not close. I had to wait a month for free repairs under warranty. Terrible service, terrible machine!

Oksana, Novokuznetsk

After reading a bunch of laudatory reviews on the Internet, I decided to buy a Hotpoint Ariston RSM 601 W. It turned out that there is nothing so wonderful about this washing machine. The last time she tore my new pillowcase. I can’t even imagine how this happened. The car is very bad, I don’t recommend buying it!

   Yuri:

   The machine is disgusting; it doesn’t pick up powder when washing, but only starts picking up powder when rinsing. He thinks for a long time. I don't recommend taking it.
