Reviews of the washing machine Indesit IWSC 5105 (CIS)

Indesit Company specializes in the production of budget washing machines accessible to the population. Their competitors offer, at best, a couple of cheap models, but the Indesit company has gone much further, turning the production of affordable machines into a separate industry. A striking representative of the budget series of washing machines has recently become the narrow washing machine Indesit IWSC 5105 CIS, let's ask the owners how much they like or dislike this equipment.

Men's opinions

Alexey, Rostov-on-Don

Four years ago, our Beko brand washing machine finally died. My wife really liked it, but nothing can be done, even very good equipment sooner or later ends up in a landfill. Beko worked for a total of 15 years. The question arose, what to take instead if you have a limited budget? We found the answer on the selling website and chose the Indesit IWSC 5105 washing machine because there were many positive reviews about it. The choice turned out to be correct.

• The washing machine is very cheap, we fit into the budget and still have a little left to wash.
• It removes dirt from things normally, without chewing or damaging anything.

They say some machines wash in such a way that lint and pellets form on things, this is clearly not about our Indesit.

• The drum is normal, made of stainless steel, smooth inside, without burrs, the fin punches hold tightly.
• The load is average, 5 kg, some say it’s not enough, but it’s enough for us.
• The controls are simple, even primitive, and my wife figured it out without any problems.
• I connected without any problems, but the hoses are a little short.
• The powder dissolves perfectly, although the powder receiver is made somewhat strangely.

Needless to say, I really like the washing machine. Over the course of 4 years, we have gotten used to it, and we don’t even notice many small problems. Although they exist, where would we be without them? Five points without talking!

I purchased the car two years ago, the impressions are good. She looks a bit frail, but that's just the first impression. It is clear that they made it from the cheapest materials, but it works. I don’t need anything else, I can wash it, and that’s okay. Satisfied!

This technique did not immediately attract me; if I had the money, I would have taken something else. Well, since I didn’t calculate the budget, and I didn’t want to take out a loan, I had to take an Indian loan. It works great for six months, although the hatch opens poorly and sticks. The bottom of the housing began to become covered with a coating of rust, since my bathroom is damp. It looks like in another year, the washing machine will be completely rusty underneath, if it doesn’t break before then.

It washes clothes well, but the rinsing and spinning could be better. I have particular complaints about the spin cycle. If you wash large items, the Indian woman refuses to wring them out at all; she wrings out the rest, but the things are wet. Another plus I can highlight is the 15-minute washing program, which I use very often. Pass!

Oleg, Tyumen

I will not recommend this washing machine, there are too many different problems with it. Still, whatever one may say, cheap is cheap. Firstly, there were problems with the hatch cuff, which constantly tried to come out, which prevented the door from opening and closing. Secondly, rust, which is the scourge of this machine. Since the metal from which it is made is by no means a stainless alloy.Thirdly, a capricious drum that does not want to wash outer clothing, although it passes the weight.

Why does the manufacturer indicate a maximum load of 5 kg of dry laundry, if in fact the machine cannot wash even one jacket, which weighs much less when dry.

Fourthly, the “home assistant” is very noisy. In my bathroom the walls are solid, from there you can even hear a scream quite poorly, but you can hear the washing machine perfectly. If I come home from the night shift, and my wife has started doing the laundry, then it’s better not to go to bed, you won’t fall asleep! My wife somehow got used to it, but I regret that I chose this technique, I should have thought before spending money on this junk.

Alexander, Yaroslavl

I organically cannot digest washing machines stuffed with electronics. Somehow water and sensitive electronic boards are not very compatible. A washing machine should be simple and reliable, Indesit is just that for me. I live alone, I don’t want to buy expensive equipment for rented housing. It washes normally and hasn't broken after 10 months of use. I looked on the Internet, dozens of buyers are happy. I'll give it five points.

Women's opinions

Svetlana, Novosibirsk

Our washing machine from Indesit is the most reasonable choice, it has been working for the fifth year and no matter what. My husband says that it has bearings at the outlet, which seems to be true, since some kind of hum is heard during washing. Well, if anything happens, we’ll call a craftsman, since we have a lot of familiar craftsmen, they’ll do a good job. At my mother-in-law's washing machine Candy GVW 264 DC-07, so there are a lot more problems with her. She has repaired it two or three times already. Personally, I’m happy with the choice, Indesit is a good brand, and the washing machine cost us very little.

Margarita, Moscow

Unreliable technology, extremely unreliable.The parts and housing are of low quality, which results in a short service life. It so happened that we bought three washing machines of this brand at once, for ourselves, for our grandmother in the village and for our godfathers. It was like an experiment to see whose car would break down faster. The result is sad, after three months the godmother’s washing machine broke down beyond repair, then ours a year later, only my grandmother’s machine is intact, since she hardly uses it. I now don’t trust the Indesit brand and don’t recommend it to you!

Our bearing collapsed, and the tank was not removable; they said there was no point in repairing it, so we had to buy a new washing machine.

Nina, Rybinsk

Indesit has the best set of washing programs, I was convinced of this from personal experience. I use about 2/3 of the programs all the time depending on the items I wash. I read on the Internet that this is an unreliable machine, perhaps so, I have been using it for 3 months and have not had any problems. The washing machine looks primitive, but that doesn’t matter to me, since we have it in the basement, where I have equipped a small laundry room. I will continue to use it, if I find out anything else interesting, I will definitely write.

Anna, Ivanovo

I bought the washing machine in October 2016. It is quiet, washes dirty laundry well, is convenient, and fits in the cabinet. Its appearance is not important to me, since it is in a cabinet and closed with a door. Not too roomy, spins normally, the set of modes is just right. I didn’t find any cons!
