Reviews of washing machines LG F1096SD3

The market is flooded with super-sophisticated washing machines, which have a load capacity of 14 kg, and a whole bunch of programs with different functions, but somehow the consumer is not very interested in this equipment. According to statistics, only 7% of buyers actually purchase such cars. You can understand why this happens, the price for such machines is very high, and the recent crisis has forced people to turn their attention to cheaper goods. Customer reviews confirm this opinion.

LG F1096SD3 is just a budget model of a washing machine, which suited the Russian buyer. I was attracted by the low cost, high reliability and presentable appearance. Let's see what experts and ordinary users think about this technique. And perhaps we will also form some opinion about this machine.

What do the experts think?

We will start not with the opinions of users of washing machines of this model, but with reviews from specialists. At first, our craftsmen were divided on this machine, so they started a dispute and carried out several tests to resolve it. For testing, we took a new machine from one of the participants in the dispute, who argued that this was the best unit in this price category. The test consisted of 3 parts.

1. The machine had to flawlessly wash white sheets and duvet covers with a total weight of 3.6 kg, with a maximum machine load of 4 kg.

The most persistent contaminants were selected: berry juice, machine oil, lipstick, felt-tip pen.

2. At the next stage, the machine had to demonstrate flawless rinsing and spinning of the same amount of laundry.
3. The third stage was carried out together with the first and second. Its essence is that one of our technical specialists measures the noise level of a given machine, water consumption and energy consumption in order to compare the resulting readings with those recorded in technical documents.

Based on the test results, we concluded that the washing quality is quite high. Even though the machine didn’t completely get rid of all the stains, the berry stains and lipstick were still washed off, and the machine oil stains remained barely visible. Washing was done at 60 degrees in the “Cotton” mode.

This experiment cannot be called “clean”, since initially there were many unaccounted for factors: the detergent was not specified in advance, there was no comparison with other brands and models of machines, and the nature of the contaminants and the fabric on which such contaminants were applied were not taken into account. Nevertheless, even despite the violations with which the experiment was carried out, some intermediate conclusions can be drawn based on its results.

User opinions

I've had this machine washing for over two years now and haven't had even the slightest glitch. I am also happy because I have something to compare with. We used to have Indesit washing machine, so I had to catch her all over the bathroom, jumping around like crazy. My husband is skilled, he solved the problem radically, fastened the legs tightly to the floor, but I was not happy for long, the engine burned out, and the car had to be sold for parts. Well, that’s not what we’re talking about, they handed it over and forgot about it.

I like the new machine in every way. I can tell you point by point why it is better. Look here.

1. It washes better, and things deteriorate less after it. I understood this from T-shirts and shirts.Previously, we did not have time to change them, we thought the quality of the fabric was bad, but now I understand that it is the drum of the old machine that is to blame, since after LG things remain like new for a long time.
2. The machine spins quickly. When you turn on 1000 rpm, it even becomes a little scary. At the same time, the washing machine is noticeably quieter, rattles and sways less. I close the door to the bathroom, go into the next room and the machine can no longer be heard.

The passport states that the maximum noise level that the machine produces during spinning is 67 dB.

3. Excellent for rinsing things. I have been using Ariel laundry detergent for many years; my old machine did not rinse it out of fabric well. LG rinses very well. You smell freshly washed clothes, they practically do not smell of powder.
4. There are many interesting washing programs and functions. True, most of these modes are not in demand by me, but let them be, suddenly, when they come in handy.

Now I feel like an agitator for LG, not on purpose of course. So I tempted my neighbor to buy exactly the same car, my friend comes to visit and takes a closer look. The technology is really good. It may be rustic by modern standards, but it is reliable, inexpensive and works great.

It’s a shame, but this machine is not suitable for our family, but I bought just such a machine for my grandmother. It even looks very strong, and when you look at how the machine works, you are completely convinced of its practicality and reliability. At the same time, I must admit, I was very surprised when I looked at the price tag, the price turned out to be ridiculous, but I repeat, I will not take such a car into our house.

The reason for this is simple - the small drum load. In the end, I still bought an LG F12U2HDN0 washing machine with a load of 7 kg, because I respect this brand.In a seven-kilogram machine you can wash down jackets without any problems, there are different rugs, rugs, blankets. The described model with a load of 4 kg is suitable only for ordinary things; for us this option is unacceptable.

I don’t call my machine anything other than “my favorite home assistant.” There is no noise from it, the spin cycle is excellent, the clothes I take out are absolutely dry. I got the impression that the Korean engineer, when he came up with this washing machine, read my thoughts. I like it very much, I recommend it to everyone.

I don’t like machines without a display, so when I bought a new washing machine, I told the seller about it right away. By the way, he is a great guy, he offered me this LG brand model and immediately hit the nail on the head. I really liked the car, because it looked good, and the electronic controls hinted that the technology was the most modern. I’ve been using it for six months now and haven’t found any downsides yet. Let's swim further and see what happens!

In conclusion, we note that about 1000 reviews posted on the Internet indicate the great advantages of this washing machine. It also has disadvantages, but they are mentioned in passing. Most users don’t even notice them, although they have been using this technology for more than two years.
