Narrow top loading washing machines up to 40 cm

Top-loading washing machines have attracted the attention of consumers not so much with the type of load as with their unusual sizes.

In miniature rooms, such washing machines have become the best way to save space. Moreover, such washing machines have everything you need for a good wash. Let’s take a closer look at washing machines with a vertical load of up to 40 cm wide.

Dimensions

Vertical loading machines are mostly the same size. And to say that among them there are full-size or narrow, in our opinion, it is impossible. It will be more accurate if they all belong to narrow models, because their dimensions are:

• width - 40 cm;
• depth -56-65 cm;
• height - 81-90 cm.

Important! The smallest width of vertical machines is 40 cm, so you should not look for cars with a width of 35 and even more so 30 cm. Such narrow units have not yet appeared on sale. Speaking of 35 cm, they most likely mean the depth of the front cars.

Capacity, functionality and economy

Now let's talk about the technical features of top-loading washing machines. In addition to a limited run in size, vertical machines also have limited drum loading options. Most of the market offers units with a capacity of 5 and 5.5 kg, the maximum load of these machines is 7 kg, there are units with a load of 6 kg. And this is understandable because the narrowed case is simply not able to accommodate a large tank and drum and it does not matter what load it has is top or front.

As for the set of functions, the vertical washing machines in this regard are not inferior to the front ones. They also have the functions of washing delicate items, duvets. Of the additional functions found: steam washing, easy ironing and others.

Note! Users who have a washing machine with a vertical loading, note the convenience in the location of the hatch for loading linen, there is no need to bend over.

Spin in machines of this type is carried out at different speeds, it all depends on the manufacturer and model of a particular machine. The spin speed in most cases varies from 700 to 1000 revolutions. But there are also ultra-fast narrow models with a spin of 1200 and 1300 rpm.

The energy class of a vertical machine is not lower than A, there are models with class A ++ and A +++. The washing class of this technique is only A. Therefore, these machines are washed perfectly. Cars of this type can be equipped with a display and have touch control. The only difference from narrow frontal machines is the lack of drying. Until we have met such models, in cars with vertical loading this function is not used.

Reliability and price

Another important issue when choosing a vertical washing machine with a width of 40 cm is reliability and price. The reliability of the washing machine, first of all, depends on:

• assembly country;
• component parts.

Important! A brand is not an indicator of reliability. So, for example, Bosch washing machines are assembled not only in Germany, but also in Russia, China, Poland, and therefore such units work in different ways.

It’s only obvious that the more expensive the equipment, the more likely it will be more reliable. But not in all cases, because the price can be overstated when the washing machine has a lot of additional functions, a touch screen and other modern "chips". The more such “chips”, the less reliable the unit may be and its repair will be difficult.

Therefore, when choosing a reliable technique, you should pay attention to electronics. In general, the price of narrow models with vertical loading does not differ on equipment with front loading. Yes, and in terms of reliability they are approximately the same, we repeat again - it all depends on the country of assembly. Best value cars assembled in Germany, Sweden, Poland, Slovakia. The average price of top-loading washing machines is about 30 thousand rubles.

Review of the best

Let's move on to the review of vertical cars, choosing the five most popular models. The main selection criteria for compiling this rating were: price, functionality and reliability of the equipment. So, in the list of the top five were:

Electrolux EWT 1377 VOW - this narrow European-built washing machine has dimensions (WxDxH) - 40 x 60 x 89 cm. At the same time, its load is 7 kg of dry laundry, it is equipped with the latest technologies. In addition to standard washing modes, there is a program to remove stains. The mode of prevention of creasing, as well as the supply of steam during washing. The machine costs about 50 thousand rubles. That is why, she was given only sixth place.

A feature of the model is the smooth opening of the flaps of the drum, as well as the presence of drum lighting. You can delay the start of washing no more than 20 hours. The linen is wrung out perfectly, because the drum rotation speed is 1300 rpm. Protection against children is present, but only partial leakage.

AEG L 56106 TL is a German-made machine with a load of up to 6 kg. Its width, like all vertical bars is 40 cm, but its height is 89 cm. The machine is energy-efficient, class A +++. It has a variety of washing modes, but squeezes the laundry only at 1000 rpm. Plus models in the smooth opening of the flaps of the drum and the presence of car parking. For this machine you will have to pay a little more than 35 thousand rubles, and therefore only the fifth place in the rating.

Candy EVOT 10071 D is a narrow washing machine, the dimensions of which are (WxDxH) - 40 x 60 x 85 cm. Downloading this washer is not inferior to the previous one - 7 kg. But the spin speed is only 1000 revolutions, but this is quite enough. 18 washing modes are programmed in the control module, including a stain removal program. This model has a lot of positive reviews. Among the shortcomings, a weak drive belt is noted, which for some users was torn in the first year of operation. The price of this model is about 23 thousand rubles.

IGNIS LTE 8027 is a top-loading washing machine of excellent assembly, which is why the machine has won third place. Its dimensions are (WxDxH) - 40 x 60 x 90 cm. The machine has only 10 washing modes, a load of 5 kg of dry laundry and a spin of 800 rpm. But believe me, for a small family of three for everyday washing this is enough. This machine lacks a complete protection system, but it costs about 21 thousand rubles.

Electrolux EWT 0862 TDW - this narrow top-loading washing machine is ranked second in the ranking. The drum volume is 6 kg of dry linen, and the dimensions (WxDxH) are 40 x 60 x 85 cm. The number of programs is 14, among them there is a program for washing jeans, delicate washing, washing shirts, and others. The machine is protected from children, but only partially from leaks.

Candy EVOGT 13072 D - this washing machine has earned first place in our rating, as it has an optimal price-quality ratio. The drum load is 7 kg, the spin - 1300 rpm. The sizes practically do not differ from competitors (WxDxH) - 40 x 63 x 88 cm. 18 washing modes will allow you to wash even the most delicate items. There is a quick wash mode (30 minutes) as well as in the above machines. There is also protection from children. You can postpone washing for 24 hours. Despite the Chinese assembly, the machine is in demand, its price is about 26 thousand rubles.

So, top-loading washing machines have a standard width of 40 cm. Narrower aggregates with a width of 35 or 30 cm simply do not exist. From the technical side, they are not necessary, their manufacture is impractical. Even among the front-end cars, there are no ones that would have a depth of 30 cm, depth super-tight models - 33 cm, mostly 35 cm cars. The only small-sized machine, whose depth is even less than 30 cm, is the Daewoo Electronics DWD-CV701 PC wall-mounted machine, which we wrote about in an article on our website.
