We bought the machine recently, so I didn’t have time to study all its nuances, but I can share my first impression. The machine immediately pleased me with a number of technical parameters that my old washing machine did not have, namely:

  • a five-kilogram drum that allows you to wash large items such as rugs and blankets;
  • Quiet, so I can even run the night wash;
  • washes well, and most importantly rinses things (there were problems with the old machine);
  • high spin speed - 1000 rpm, although I would not refuse if the speed was higher;

On modern models of washing machines, the spin speed is at least 1200 rpm; it is unclear why this is not implemented here.

  • The inner walls of the drum are quite smooth, they don’t damage things.

The washing machine, apparently, is of good quality, despite the fact that it was assembled in Russia, but I saw some shortcomings. Small things get stuck in the rubber seal that is located around the hatch and do not come out, and once my daughter’s sock fell under the elastic and we could not get it out. Now I'm afraid that it will get stuck somewhere inside and the machine will break. A friend told me that there are laundry bags, they will just prevent small things from getting lost. I'll buy it later and try it.

I really wanted to buy a Bosch brand washing machine, because I already had equipment from this brand and it worked for almost 17 years. Yes, it’s still working now, it just holds everything together. We took her to the dacha, let her work there for the last time. In general, I wanted to buy Bosch, but ended up buying LG. The seller “popped in”, he seemed to like me. He told me so emotionally, almost excitedly, why you shouldn’t buy the Boshis that I was considering, that I finally gave in and believed.

It was not very convenient that the specified machine was not in stock, I had to wait 9 days for the order, but the result was worth it. The machine arrived in impeccable condition, I personally went through everything, looked into the powder receptacle and into the hatch. When the master installed the machine, it turned out that it works quietly and conscientiously, and it does a great job of washing, especially if you don’t skimp on powder. I've had this washing machine for a year now and have no complaints. I didn't notice any cons!

Six months ago, an LG washing machine was delivered to my bachelor apartment. During these six months, I became so lazy that I completely forgot what hand washing is, because you get used to good things quickly. There are many washing modes, I don’t use all of them, but most of all I like the 30-minute mode, because the washing quality is normal and it’s fast. Conclusion: the machine is awesome and, by the way, very inexpensive.

I paid only 320 bucks for this machine, and in return I received a good “home assistant”.

At first I was wary of this washing machine, it looked too clumsy, but as soon as I started using it, all suspicions dissipated.It washes, rinses and spins flawlessly, the electronics do not glitch, the hatch does not leak, and the garbage filter is always clean. It’s immediately obvious that the manufacturer has thought through everything, good technology.

Opinions of dissatisfied owners

My husband and I did not like this brand of washing machine. We decided this unanimously some time ago. Firstly, the machine completely refuses to wash clothes when the drum load is small, and if you stuff things in a clump, it will stop during washing, and some scribbles will appear on the screen. We even called the technician about this and described the problem, he said that this behavior is normal for LG.

Secondly, after a month the cuff came out and the hatch stopped closing. This time we didn’t contact anyone, my husband removed the clamp and put the cuff in place, after which he installed a new clamp. Something like this, in short, I fixed the problem with my own hands. You know, somehow we didn’t expect such use when we bought the machine, so we didn’t like it at all. We do not recommend buying!

This washing machine was shared by armless people. Moreover, I got this impression during the installation of this washing unit. I did everything according to the instructions and double checked everything.

  1. I reinforced the floor under the washing machine.
  2. Tightening the legs, I adjusted the body of the machine to a level.

When I tightened the legs, I was surprised that they were dangling somehow strangely; well, the weight of the body was pressing on top, so the machine would have crashed on me.

  1. I left gaps on all sides so that during operation the body would not hit objects on the right.
  2. And of course, I connected it according to all the rules.

What's the result? And in the end, when the wife put her son’s down jacket in the drum and started the wash, after 40 minutes the machine almost fell onto the left wall.And in general, then she began to jump around like crazy during the spin cycle. When I began to look into it, it turned out that the legs were barely supported by anything, apparently a factory defect. So the machine only gets 3 points out of five from me, and only because I’m in a good mood today.

I didn’t like the car right away, although I respect my mother’s opinion, but here I was relentless. The first time I saw this washing machine was with my mother, who decided to show off her recent purchase. I scrupulously crawled around it from all sides and rendered a verdict - a complete bummer! Healthy, bulky, looks like a Flintstones washer, the controls are awkward. After some time, my mother changed her opinion, especially when she washed oversized items, and I am extremely happy about this. Now he’ll buy himself a normal car, like mine. I told her, don’t skimp on the washing machine.

In conclusion, we note that a washing machine of this brand has much more supporters than opponents. The opinions of many experts also speak in its favor. Our experts, by the way, also speak well of this model, so draw your own conclusions. Good luck!

    I didn't like the car. The programs are stupid. Do you really need to wash for 3-3.5 hours? So in six months you can wear out all your linen. A function to set the washing time is a must. On a thirty-minute program it washes at 20 degrees (in cold water) - what kind of wash is this? The Rinse-Spin program should begin with pumping out the water.For example, I stopped the “long” program and decided to rinse and spin. But that was not the case - the machine pumps a new portion of water into the tank.
