How to choose a washing machine, what characteristics to pay attention to?
So, going to any equipment store, you will see several models of washing machines with a price category from a budget price to a sky -high amount. At the same time, how to understand, you pay for the brand, for the necessary functions or, on the contrary, for many functions that you will not use later? We propose to consider in detail all the characteristics of washing machines with the analysis of their advantages and disadvantages.
All washing machines are divided:
- Mechanical - The machine control system is completely mechanical, in the case of turning off electricity and the next turning on, the machine will continue to work on the moment at which it stopped. If the differences or disconnects are frequent in your region, it is recommended to choose mechanics;
- Electronic - The entire control system is tied to electronics, if electricity is turned off, the program is lost and when the electricity appears, the program will begin to work again. With frequent shutdowns and changes in electricity, the board may burn;
- Electromechanical - Combined machines are more expensive than their analogues, but in operation they win in comfort and durability.
Washing machines differ in type of download:
- Vertical load - Lingerie is loaded into the drum on top. Typically, such machines are narrower and compact compared to their vertical counterparts;
- Horizontal load - Lingerie is loaded into the drum on the side and additionally the drum door is equipped with glass, so you can see the washing process. Aesthetically more interesting model, therefore, it is more common, but it occupies more and occupies more area in the room.
Built -in models deserve special attention, since such washing machines fit perfectly into modern kitchens and bathrooms.
The dimensions of the washing machine can be different, And if you have a large room, then most likely the size of the machine will be unprincipled for you, but for small housing, pre -measure where you can install a machine and push off from these sizes.
The maximum loading of the washing machine and the washing function of half the drum. For one person, there is enough machine with loading up to 5 kg, but if you have a large family, and also have small children (often erases not only bedding, but also blankets/pillows) - consider models with 6 kg loading. If there are few linen (white shirts or underwear) can be turned on in 1/2 of the drum and save the amount of water, electricity and detergents.
The minimum and maximum speed speed. The average 1000 revolutions per minute so that the laundry drum is well squeezed. If the power allows you to squeeze at a speed of 1400 or more, you will remove almost dry underwear. But it is no less important that the function of the machine is present without spin (silk and lace), and 400 revolutions per minute for delicate fabrics.
Energy consumption class. The higher the class, the more expensive, but at the same time more economical in the consumption. And given the tariffs for electricity, this is a very profitable investment.
The program "Fast washing" - An indispensable thing for those who often breaks out things and do not need to be thoroughly washed, but quickly refresh in the powder, rinse and squeeze. Also, this function is indispensable for washing curtains and curtains, because they only slightly fall in dust.
Engine type:
- Collector - works thanks to the belt and the drive, a more budget option, but also more noisy;
- Inverter - It works thanks to magnets and magnetic fields. More quiet move, durability and important - economy.
The presence of the "Working" function It is very controversial, on the one hand you can add things in the process of washing, on the other hand, how much it is necessary and advisable to overpay about 5% of the cost of the equipment.
The presence of the "drying" function. If you live in a private sector, or an apartment with a large balcony and the issue of drying linen is not very acute - this function is also very controversial. But, if you live in a small -sized apartment, if you have a dry linen with a dump of a vital space, or a place where you live prone to raw weather, and during this period the clothes dry for several days - the drying function, this is what you need!
The function of steam or disinfection. Bacteria, infections, insects, etc. - This is what accompanies us every day. Want to press one button to disinfect things, it means that you need this function. But if not, you can always do the function of steam on the iron.
This is a general list of characteristics, having familiarized yourself with which you can make your own, independent assessment, what washing machine you need.
How to choose a machine gun machine: tips
Now, having familiarized yourself with the basic functions and characteristics of the washing machines of machine guns, you need to make notes on this principle:
- Very important: dimensions, price, economy, noiselessness, etc. (write what you definitely cannot do without);
- Important: The presence of functions, spaciousness, etc. (what is important, but can be shifted to 1-2 positions up/down);
- Preferably: what they would like to see in the typewriter, but if this is not, or the price is not suitable, you can refuse this without regrets;
- No matter: Move the characteristics that are useless for you.
Why is it important to make such a note? Because the assortment of positions is simply stunning, and in advertising avenues it is easy to get lost, forget what exactly you wanted at the very beginning. No one says that it is necessary to fully follow this list. Indeed, in the direction of choosing a washing machine, you can supplement and adjust the list at will, but what is written on paper is perceived by the brain differently, and therefore, you will have a conscious choice and catch you on the “hook” of advertising more difficult.
The next step is to familiarize yourself with the market. The Russian Federation is very extensive, so choose online stores in your region, since the prices of various regions are ranging, and it makes no sense to focus on the prices of the regions from which delivery will significantly increase the cost of the goods.
By going to the site at the washing machines in the filter, put the parameters from the "Very important" item and get acquainted with the proposed choice. Those models that contain functions and characteristics from “important” and “preferably” add in comparison, and then go to the comparison section. Having evaluated all the advantages and disadvantages, you will choose one or more favorites in this store. We recommend repeating the procedure in 3-4 stores in order to choose the best. It remains to apply for and get the goods.
The advice for those who do not like to buy in online stores: most networks today offer an order on the site with pickup from the store. We recommend that you write down the price on the site, visit the store and compare prices. Often the price is more than 5-7%. In any case, you can inspect the machine personally and even if the price is higher than on their site - to apply for a site and a little waiting for the goods from the store.
And in conclusion, we add. When purchasing equipment, be sure to read the availability and terms of the guarantee, as well as save checks and documents until its end.
interesting, thanks!
Write correctly about noiselessness. It is very important! Virlpool bought it because of the inventory engine. The machine is absolutely silent
I, before the birth of a child, did calmly without washing with a ferry, but now I bought a XOTPONT with this function and children's things only with it and I wash it, so that for sure!
