Reviews of the washer-dryer

reviews of washers with dryerReviews of washer-dryers are always of interest to potential buyers of a new home helper with a hitherto unknown function. It just so happened that consumers trust those who have already managed to use this product, even if their opinions are biased in some places. As part of this publication, we made a selection of real reviews of people who have been using washer-dryers for some time and have already managed to form an opinion about them. These are the reviews.

LG

Elvira, 29 years old

We have been living in the suburbs for 5 years with my husband and children. Housing conditions have become much better than at the time when we had to rent housing in Moscow and now we can afford a lot, but some habits, as they say, do not let go. The fact is that while living in Moscow, I used to use a tumble dryer, as there was nowhere to dry laundry. Now we live in a private house, you can dry things on the street, but I still prefer convenience, so after a short meeting, after looking at the reviews about the washing machine and dryer, my husband brought me a new LG F1255RDS7 washing machine. The technique, of course, is not cheap, but I am very pleased. The washing machine has a bunch of advantages:

  • a very large drum, as much as 17 kg of laundry, in my case it’s just the perfect size, because we have three young children;

I didn’t understand this right away, but you should take into account and do not repeat my mistakes, 17 kg is the maximum load, which concerns washing, only 9 kg of laundry can be dried.

  • the laundry dries perfectly, you can choose the gentle drying mode and then the machine leaves things a little damp, so that immediately under the iron;
  • in comparison with my old dryer, it consumes much less energy, I was even surprised if you believe the technical documentation that it eats 2.7 kWh, while the old machine consumed 12 kWh, it receives tangible savings;
  • a lot of different programs that allow you to wash children's down jackets, and plaids, and blankets, and many other big things, I didn’t wash wool in the car, now thanks to the Hand Wash function I forgot what a real hand wash is and it’s such a bliss ;

I also liked the “Decrease washing time” option, now you can shorten any program if it seems to you that it takes an unreasonably long time, a couple of button presses and here you have a program that should “coat” laundry for 2.5 hours, wash, rinse and drying in 1.5 hours.

Be careful, the quality of washing from changing the program time may be affected.

The machine has a very beautiful design, an informative dashboard, in general, I am very, very pleased. Without exaggeration, this is the best washer I have ever encountered. I advise everyone!

LG F1203CDP_6 with dryer

Karim, 42 years old

My wife had long liked the machine with dryer, but we still could not buy it. There were always some reasons: it’s expensive, then they don’t like the models, or even there’s no mood to buy. But now, six months ago, we decided, bought a washing machine with built-in dryer LG F14U1JBH2N, already for $ 1230. I will not hide that I was worried before the purchase, and suddenly the machine would turn out to be bad, so much money wasted, but my feelings soon disappeared, and a feeling of deep satisfaction came in their place.

Immediately after the purchase, as an experiment, we loaded two sets of bed linen and some small things. They put on a long program for washing cotton with drying, and went to watch a movie. The film was over, and the machine was already washing and drying, all that was left was to get the pastel from the drum and stroke it - it's fantastic. Oh, how nice it would be if the washing machine still knew how to iron things, it would be simply priceless.

What else can I say about our LG F14U1JBH2N. Firstly, the machine does not say that it is quiet, but also not very loud.In general, for those who are looking for a quiet model I’ll say: our previous Hotpoint-Ariston worked quieter, but it did not have so many functions, and most importantly there was no drying. Secondly, the machine has a decent load of 10.5 kg, which is very convenient, you can wash large items at home and save on dry cleaning. Thirdly, the machine has a beautiful, futuristic, appearance, complements the picture of touch control. Personally, I really like it.

Tatyana, 31 years old, VolgogradLG F12U1HDM1N

A year ago, I went on maternity leave a second time. You yourself understand diapers, vests, romper suits a whole mountain of washing every day, and in addition to the baby there is another five-year-old child who does not reduce homework at all. My husband works for days, but still manages to help pretty well. He looked at how I “flopped” with two children and a bunch of linen that is dried all over the house and decided to give me a washing machine with a drying function LG F12U1HDM1N. The husband explained that this is an inexpensive and reliable model, which was advised by a familiar specialist.

At first I decided to take a little rest and look for flaws, but no matter how I tried, I could not find it. Electronic control, very understandable. The washing mode is easy to choose, you learn to manage it almost immediately. Quite roomy, for two bookmarks you can wash almost everything. The main thing is that there is no laundry on the dryers, no dampness in the house, as things are dried directly in the drum. A friend scared that after the washer-dryer, things would stink incomprehensibly with what, but in reality they smell like air conditioning, at least I didn’t notice anything unpleasant, although I don’t complain about problems with smell.

The car has a bunch, from my point of view, of unnecessary functions like diagnostics using a smartphone, but I just do not use them, and the rest of the functions are very much in demand. LG F12U1HDM1N is an excellent washing machine that has solved the most unpleasant household problems.

Electrolux

Alexander, 34 years old, Pskov

2 months ago the “devil pulled” me to buy a washing machine with dryer Electrolux EWW51476WD. At first, it seemed that the drying function was cool, but it turned out not to be cool at all. I overpayed about $ 350 for it, but in the end I don’t use it at all, I dry my things on the balcony. A couple of times I tried to dry things in a drum, but it turned out that after such drying they begin to exude a sharp smell of plastic, I had to give up this bad job.

I can not judge all washing machines with a drying function, I did not use it, but the Electrolux EWW51476WD is definitely complete nonsense. The materials from which it is made are clearly not of high quality, especially plastic, electronics is sometimes buggy, in addition, the manufacturer has clearly overestimated the maximum load of linen. And for all this they ask for $ 1,000, but her "red price" is two hundred on market day. Strongly dissatisfied with the purchase, I advise no one.

I checked 7 kg, it doesn’t wash in any way, it pulls out a maximum of 6 kg, put a little more, it starts to hang.

Electrolux EWW51696SWD

Elena, 27 years old

With the purchase of the Electrolux EWW51696SWD washing machine, my life has changed for the better. It looks like an advertising slogan, but it really is. How I was tormented every time I had to hang clothes in the apartment. These endless ropes, drying, how tired of all this is, it seems that we live in a communal apartment, but in reality we have a treshka in the center of the city.

Unfortunately, windows and a balcony overlook a gassed street. It’s more expensive to dry clothes there, so you had to endure the neighborhood with the “garlands” of wet things. Now all this is in the past, because now I take things out of the drum completely dry. As disadvantages, I can point out that the Electrolux EWW51696SWD is quite noisy during the spin cycle. I tried to put the laundry overnight, but the “number didn’t pass”, the washing machine woke up all the households.

Candy

Anastasia, Saratov

I needed a washing machine with a drying function and inexpensive. The choice fell on the Candy GVW45 385TC-07. Outwardly, nothing special, very similar to other washers from the line of conventional automatic machines from Kandy, but the quality, surprisingly, pleased.Particularly surprised by the almost complete absence of the smell of plastic. Neither after washing nor after drying, things do not acquire odors, only a little smell of powder. There are many washing programs, but I use only a few.

After the first launch, I did not like the rattling during spinning and drying, but it turned out not to be the typewriter, but the crooked hands of the workers who installed it. She called the others, they put it on my level and strengthened the floor, the rattle almost disappeared. The load of linen is quite sufficient - 8 kg, however, only 4 kg can dry the machine, although 5 kg is stated in the passport - this is not true. In general, a very good washing machine that really made life easier, I recommend it to everyone.

Sergey, 45 years old, Moscow

Candy GVW45 385TC-07

With tumble dryers, I absolutely have no luck. First I bought an expensive oven, from which a month later all electrics and electronics burned out due to a power surge. Then there was a tumble dryer, which fatally broke after six months. My wife jokes that I will soon work on one household appliance. Finally, I bought a Candy GVW45 385TC-07 washing machine with a drying function, and now for the second year, pah-pah has been working smoothly. I like washing.

  1. The drum includes a lot of laundry. 8 kg total and 5 kg for drying.
  2. The drum spins very quickly, judging by the passport, 1300 rpm.
  3. There is a touch screen and electronic controls.
  4. A bunch of features that I still can't figure out. Among them: anti-allergy, children's clothes, curtains, soaking, washing wool and others.
  5. In the arsenal of the washing machine there is a delayed start as much as 23 hours, which I often use.

I often am not at home for a long time, a delayed start helps out when I need to accurately calculate the start time of the washer. The main thing is that nothing breaks through and the neighbors are not flooded, and so, everything is fine.

Cons: noisy, vibrates violently during the spin cycle, rustic in appearance. This design is typical for low-cost washing machines, which Candy GVW45 385TC-07 is. I gave $ 760 for her. I think the price is even a little overpriced, although the model can be recommended, especially to young families.

In conclusion, we note, carefully reading the reviews of people about washing machines with drying, we can conclude that not all in this technique suits users. Nevertheless, the reviews are mostly positive, and this indicates that such washers are quite trustworthy. If you still can not decide on the model of such a washing machine, read the article The secrets of choosing a washing machine with dryer, in it you will find quite a lot of useful information. Have a good choice!
