Men's opinions

A year and a half ago, my old washing machine, which had served our family for 8 years, broke down. It could still be repaired, but we decided that it was already ugly, outdated and should be dismantled.

It was necessary to take something in return, but the fact is that there are a lot of washing equipment on the market now, and I’m far from an expert and I can’t choose the right model. My wife and I went shopping, spent a long time choosing a car and couldn’t choose. In the end, I gave up and decided to buy a Hotpoint Ariston RST 601 W washing machine. Why this particular machine.

1. It’s not at all expensive, at least it didn’t seem to me that it strained the family budget in any way.
2. It is attractive in appearance, has a digital display and a clear control panel.
3. It doesn't work very noisily. To such an extent that if I close the door to the bathroom, I forget that the machine is washing, then in the evening I find wet laundry in the drum and get punished by my wife for not hanging it out to dry in time.
4. The washing machine is quite stable, resists centrifugal force well, at least it doesn’t jump around the bathroom and doesn’t even wobble much when spinning.
5. And finally, it perfectly performs its main function: washing, spinning and rinsing clothes.

My wife wanted a machine with a drying function, but at that time we couldn’t afford it.

I've been using it for six months and so far so good. Sometimes it hangs on the spin cycle when you wash a jacket or blanket. I don't know anything about more significant shortcomings. I like the car!

This machine is a few centimeters smaller than my old Zanussi, so I managed to put it in the bathroom. This is so great, so much space has been freed up in the hallway (the old typewriter was in the hallway), there’s even a feeling of spaciousness, for the first time in so long. I also like Ariston for its optimal control, good set of programs and quiet operation. I give 5 points, this washing machine deserves this rating!

Sergey, Dmitrov

Good, roomy, washes down jackets, rugs and blankets well, looks amazing. I can't be happier with the purchase, two months have already passed. The machine is very good, if you take it, you won’t regret it.

Semyon, St. Petersburg

Very dissatisfied with the purchase. Hotpoint Ariston is no longer the same, they just rivet a surrogate. My washing machine broke after four months, my sister’s, after six months. Worth purchasing washing machine LG FH2G6WDS7just like I wanted at first. Well, as always, I learn from mistakes.

Roman, Naberezhnye Chelny

After a long and tedious search, I managed to find a washing machine that is almost ideally matched in cost and quality - Hotpoint Ariston RST 601 W. For myself, I don’t want anything better. The next machine I will ever buy will be able to dry and iron clothes.

Women's opinions

I have been using an LG direct drive washing machine for a long time. Then we sold the apartment along with its furnishings and moved to a new one. I didn’t pick up the washing machine, I took this model as a replacement. What can I say about her?

• Firstly, it washes things better than LG and hardly wrinkles them.
• Secondly, she treats things much more carefully.
• Thirdly, it has convenient and understandable programs, with almost no unnecessary garbage. In general, I don’t regret that I changed the machine, maybe you should change it too?

Unlike LG, Ariston leaves powder in the tray after washing, and even quite a large amount of water. Maybe this is a feature of the model, or maybe it’s a breakdown, I’ll find out.

Mila, Krasnodar

I didn’t really like the narrow washing machine of this brand, although you can do laundry on it. I'll explain why. The most important thing is that the lock on the hatch doesn't work well. From the very first day I closed the hatch door with force. Now I'm practically hammering it with my foot, I think it will soon break completely. The second disadvantage of the machine is the powder receiver. She takes the powder reluctantly, sometimes she even has to open the tray during washing and pour boiling water from the kettle into it so that the remaining powder goes into the tank. It also picks up the air conditioner incorrectly, too early, in general, I don’t recommend this machine!

Marina, Barnaul

This machine is surprisingly compact and roomy. I am very glad that now designers are concerned about making their equipment as small as possible and as functional as possible. The washing machine is very quiet, washes well, does not wrinkle, crumple or spoil the laundry, provided that you put it in the drum correctly. In two years of operation, it has never failed. Five points!

Victoria, Kursk

I used the top-loading Aristoshka for 12 years.I liked it, even though it had mechanical controls, and the load was only 4 kg. Unfortunately, a year ago there was a short circuit and a rapid fire in the kitchen. It’s good that I was at home and quickly extinguished everything, but, alas, I had to say goodbye to the machine, because the surge protector caught fire right next to its body.

I didn’t think for a long time, I took the Hotpoint Ariston RST 601 W with front loading. At first I wanted to look at verticals, but at the last moment I abandoned this idea. The washer turned out to be very good. I especially liked the washing programs; they were very well chosen. I often use quick wash and super rinse. It is very convenient that this model has a display on which you can see the progress of the program; it is also good that there is a delay start. For night washing it is simply irreplaceable. I recommend to buy!
