TOP 10 best washing machines according to customer reviews

I present to your attention the TOP 10 best automatic washing machines for 2020. When choosing models, I was guided by characteristics that are important for functionality (capacity, number and duration of programs, economy of consumption), as well as unique features and capabilities offered by manufacturers. The rating includes washing machines from different price segments: from budget, but reliable, to expensive, equipped with dryers, technologies for maintaining the quality of laundry, the ability to control through the application and other "smart" chips.

LG AI DD F4V5VG0W

In the first place in the rating was a washing machine with a system for determining the type of fabric. It is equipped with a direct drive inverter motor, which ensures low noise and vibration. The loading hatch with a diameter of 35 cm is made of tempered glass, resistant to scratches and mechanical damage. The bubble drum is made of durable steel with antibacterial properties. The machine is designed for loading up to 9 kg. Provides 14 washing options. These are modes for certain types of fabric, as well as hypoallergenic, everyday, for children's clothing, delicate, accelerated, intense, quiet. There is a mode with a pre-wash and a separate rinse. During operation, the machine can be stopped and laundry added. The large washing temperature range should be noted separately: 20–95 ° C. And also the ability to wash without heating water. The base of the AI ​​DD system contains data on more than 20 thousand types of materials and their combinations. LG conducts intellectual analysis (determines the weight, strength, softness of fabrics) and selects a specific washing mode that ensures the quality of cleaning and a delicate attitude to clothes. This system reduces the percentage of laundry damage by 18%. The spin speed can be set yourself by selecting a value from the range of 400–1400 rpm, or by disabling this function.

LG AI DD F4V5VG0W is a machine that can perform drying functions. But the loading volume is limited to 5 kg. Steam treatment is another possibility of the model. According to research, this feature eliminates 99.9% of allergens from clothing. The machine is equipped with a timer, a foam suppression system, a drum cleaning function, and has a lock against accidental switching by a child. The control is carried out electronically, for which there is a round metal switch, a touch panel and a display. The washing machine is equipped with LG ThinQ technology and supports Wi-Fi, which makes it an intelligent technology. Mode control, tracking of water and electricity consumption can be carried out through a smartphone. The washer is able to carry out self-diagnostics, report errors and malfunctions (Smart Diagnosis technology). In terms of energy efficiency, the machine belongs to category A. It consumes 1.17 kW / h and consumes 45 liters of water per cycle. When combined with drying, energy consumption increases to 6.12 kW * h / cycle. At the end of the wash, the machine beeps.

Benefits:

• Good build quality.
• Does not vibrate.
• Moderately noisy.
• Big load.
• Convenient control panel.
• Drying with several modes (standard, gentle, light).
• Many modes, including non-standard ones (for example, quiet operation, hypoallergenic).
• Possibility of remote control (application, Alice).

Disadvantages:

• Not very detailed instructions regarding the choice of modes.
• The machine will select long programs when you select the Wash + Dry option.

The price is about 55,000 rubles. This is the most expensive car in the TOP due to its excellent technical equipment. Unlike other models, it is able to recognize tissue types and select the optimal mode. It also performs drying and steam treatment. It also has the largest temperature range and spin speed. Thanks to its wide functionality, ergonomic control and the ability to control it via a smartphone, almost all owners are ready to recommend it for purchase. The main disadvantage is considered to be poorly drawn up instructions and long operating time. For example, she washes cotton items for 4 hours with a 2 kg load. But this problem can be solved by setting the desired operating time yourself.

Haier HW70-BP12969A

The second place in the rating is occupied by a machine with unique dimensions. It is narrow (37.3 cm deep), but has an unusually large loading door - 53 cm in diameter. The washer is designed for loads up to 7 kg. The inner surface of the drum is equipped with "pads", which provides a soft glide of the clothes. This ensures that the fabrics are washed delicately. It is controlled electronically by means of a rotary switch and a backlit digital display. The machine has 12 working modes. There are programs for each type of fabric and special ones, for example, gentle cleaning and super rinsing. Haier's fast mode lasts only 15 minutes, while a similar program from LG takes half an hour. Like LG, it has the ability to steam your clothes to rid them of germs and allergens. The maximum spin speed is 1200 rpm. Many protective options: from engine overheating, from heating without water supply, from leaks (in case of damage to the integrity of the body or hose, the supply is turned off). Thanks to the brushless inverter motor, the washing machine is quiet (54dB) and economical in terms of energy consumption. The consumption is 0.11 kW * h / kg. For one wash, it spends 56 liters of water.

Benefits:

• Narrow.
• Good materials, good build quality.
• Large loading hatch.
• Fast wash modes.
• Quiet.
• Squeezes things out well.
• Steam treatment can be added to five programs.

Disadvantages:

• When choosing a program, it does not show which temperature and push-up speed indicators will be used.
• The actual depth does not match the one indicated by the manufacturer - 44 cm.

The cost of Haier is 40,000 rubles. In terms of intelligence, the machine is inferior to the leader of the TOP, since it cannot determine the type of tissue and does not provide for remote control. Not endowed with so many special programs and does not provide drying. Of the proprietary chips, one can single out a special arrangement of the drum, a surprisingly wide hatch, and a small-sized design. Has a sufficient number of modes and an ultra-fast washing program. Economical in energy consumption, but it spends more water than the leader of the rating. Separately, buyers note surprisingly short cycle times. For example, cotton washes a little over an hour, while most machines take much longer. 92% of owners of this model recommend it for purchase.

Samsung WW65K42E08W

The third place goes to the Diamond drum machine. It is made using a special Samsung technology, which provides for the placement of holes in the recesses. Moreover, they are 25% less than in conventional drums. This technology provides a gentle attitude to clothes during washing without losing the quality of cleaning. Another feature of the model is Eco Bubble. This option is designed to act on the detergent powder to transform it into active foam. Such a "bubble generator" provides a deeper penetration of the detergent into the structure of the fabric, that is, the stains are cleaned from the inside.The Super Rinse + program washes away the powder thoroughly without leaving a trace. This is achieved by supplying water in an increased amount and accelerated spinning. Steam cleaning mode - steam is supplied from the bottom for all-round penetration into fabrics. In total, the machine has 12 modes, including fast (designed for 15 minutes), for black, children's clothes, soaking. It is possible to add laundry through an additional hatch during washing or, if necessary, rinse or wring out the clothes. At the end of the work, the machine beeps. The timer allows you to set the time to complete the wash. The push-up occurs at 1200 rpm. Maximum load - 6.5 kg. A feature of the model is the Smart Check system. It is designed to identify faults and notify the owner through the application with a proposal for a way to fix them. Also, the machine will offer to clean the drum if it gets dirty. For this, a special regime is provided, and you will not need to use any chemical agents. Samsung also has the lowest water consumption per cycle among the TOP leaders - 39 liters.

Benefits:

• Washes things well.
• Many modes for different fabrics. There is a 15 minute wash.
• The ability to add things in the process.
• Convenient management. Informative display.
• Adjustable leg height.
• Economical consumption of electricity and water.

Disadvantages:

• It makes a noticeable noise during spinning.
• The 6.5 kg load is not available for all modes.
• There is no way to turn off the beeps that are heard when you press the buttons, and at the end of the wash (just a melody sounds).

The price is about 27,000 rubles. This is an excellent model in terms of price-quality ratio. It is endowed with many options that guarantee the quality of cleaning: a bubble generator, a special relief structure of the drum, a large selection of modes. It interacts with the user through the application, has a low noise level and low water consumption. Like Haier, it offers fast wash, steam cleaning and high speed spin. Although, of course, it cannot boast of such a huge hatch as his. 90% of users recommend Samsung WW65K42E08W for purchase.

LGF-2J6HG0W

In fourth place is the washing machine, equipped with some of the advantages of the more expensive LG AI DD F4V5VG0W: drying mode, steam treatment, LG ThinQ app for control and more selection of modes, sound notification, Smart Diagnosis to identify problems and malfunctions and send them to the service department. But it is narrower - the depth is 45 cm. And it is designed for a load of up to 7 kg. A feature of this model is the Steam technology, which is applicable for three programs: Baby clothes, Hypoallergenic, Cotton + Steam. At the same time, the clothes are steamed, due to which germs and allergens are destroyed. Such things come out of the typewriter less wrinkled. When exposed to steam, the drum itself is processed, which eliminates the need to clean it. In addition, there are significant savings in water and electricity costs. The drum can rotate in different ways, taking into account the selected mode, because each tissue and the degree of its pollution requires a separate approach. For example, with an intensive wash, the drum turns halfway, because of which the laundry unfolds, smoothes. Then it rotates intensively to soak things with soapy water. This is followed by swaying movements, in which clothes are turned over in the water for a long time. The machine works in 14 modes, including washing down clothes, sports, anti-crease program. If necessary, you can add items to the wash. This happens through the door. And, perhaps, only in the most common modes (Fast, Casual, for mixed fabrics, for cottons). A significant drawback of this machine is the lack of protection against leaks in the case.

Benefits:

• Narrow.
• Roomy.
• Washes things well.
• Dries perfectly.
• Quiet work.
• No vibrations.
• Many modes.

Disadvantages:

• There is an isolated case of marriage.
• The instructions are poorly written.
• It is very difficult to iron things after drying.
• No spin cycle.

LG F-2J6HG0W worth 30,000 rubles provides excellent quality washing and spinning. It has a large number of modes, provides an intelligent approach, which is expressed in the choice of the duration of operation (taking into account the weight of the loaded laundry) and determining the way of rotation of the drum in order to ensure a gentle attitude to clothes and thorough cleaning. Provides smartphone control, steaming and drying clothes, like more expensive models. The owners of such a machine are generally satisfied with its capabilities and functionality, and 96% of them recommend it for purchase.

Bosch WLG 20261 OE

Refers to simpler washing machines that are not equipped with special technologies. Its feature is the possibility of economical use in two modes: SpeedPerfect - for quick washing (saving 65% time) and EcoPerfect - for saving energy. For reference: 4 kg of mixed fabrics can be washed in just 45 minutes. At the same time, the quality of washing and spinning remains unchanged. Bosch belongs to the class of narrow washing machines. Its depth is only 40 cm. Designed for loading up to 5 kg. The powder tray has a special compartment for pouring liquid agent. Washes in several modes, including separate programs for each type of fabric or mixed, as well as washing with large amounts of water, with pretreatment and direct injection. It differs from the leaders in the rating by the absence of steam treatment, drying, and even squeezes at only 1000 rpm. But on the other hand, it is one of the three leaders in the rating for economical water consumption - only 40 liters per cycle.

Benefits:

• Good build quality. No backlash, squeaks.
• Sufficient number of programs.
• Washes and squeezes quietly.
• Continues washing from where it was stopped when the lights are turned off.
• It gives a signal after the end of the procedure (its volume can be changed).
• Informative display.
• Possibility to postpone the start.

Disadvantages:

• The inscriptions of the programs around the round handle are not exactly indicated (accidentally you can turn on the wrong mode).
• Water remains in the seal around the drum.

Bosch, worth 24,000 rubles, is perfect for those who do not need steam treatment, drying and special options. Most types of allergens can be eliminated with the baby wash cycle. The main advantage of the model is the ability to wash clothes in less time without loss of quality by choosing the SpeedPerfect mode. It is inferior to LG F-2J6HG0W in spin quality. But on the other hand, it is narrower and will freely fit into the limited space of the bathroom. 96% of users are completely satisfied with their purchase.

Electrolux PerfectCare 600 EW6S4R06W

At the next step in the rating is the machine, which also belongs to the segment of narrow washers. It is slightly narrower than the previous model - 38 cm. But it is designed for a large load - up to 6 kg. The manufacturer guarantees respect for fabrics through the use of SensiCare technology. To ensure an even soak with the conditioner, the machine soaks and distributes the clothes around the drum. Unlike Bosch, it provides for the possibility of steam treatment. The maximum spin speed is just as low when compared with the leaders of the review - 1000 rpm. Electrolux PerfectCare can wash in 14 modes. In addition to programs for different types of fabrics and clothes, there is a super rinse mode, fast and preliminary. The model is energy efficient (belongs to the class A +++). Consumes 0.13 kWh / kg. Consumes a small amount of water - 43 liters at a time. According to the indicators and characteristics on the manufacturer's website, Electrolux PerfectCare could be assigned a higher place in the rating than Bosch WLG 20261 OE. But there are several points in the reviews that prevent this from being done. For example, many consumers have encountered the problem of a door not closing tightly. Sometimes it does not open (for this you need to press it down first) or the machine does not start (you need to open and close the door again).

Benefits:

• Narrow.
• Large selection of temperatures for washing.
• A sufficient number of modes.
• Availability of a quick program (14 minutes).
• Simple controls. There is a display.

Disadvantages:

• The spin is imperfect.

Electrolux, worth 22,000 rubles, provides a good quality wash with respect to fabrics. Like more advanced models, it allows for steam treatment and has special programs (baby clothes, extra rinsing). Compared to Bosch, Electrolux is more compact and can hold more laundry. Separately, it should be noted that this is one of the best machines in the rating for economical consumption of electricity. 89% of buyers recommend Electrolux PerfectCare.

Weissgauff WM 4947 DC Inverter

The next place in the rating is occupied by a washing machine with a motor operating on a special BLDC technology. It assumes that the rotation of the drum is carried out not by the brushes, but by the electromagnetic field. Thanks to this, the manufacturer has been able to achieve reduced operating noise, economical energy consumption and minimal wear. The washer is quite voluminous, designed for a load of up to 7 kg. There are 16 modes for operation, similar to Electrolux PerfectCare (except for steam treatment and anti-crease). But this model allows you to customize your settings for a specific load and save these parameters in the "My Program" section. It also has a separate program for washing bed linen. An additional feature of the model is the ability to add laundry directly during washing through the main door. The push-up is performed at the selected speed, maximum 1400 rpm, which is rarely found in models of the middle price category. Despite this, the level of noise during spinning practically does not differ from Electrolux.

Benefits:

• Good build quality.
• The reliability of the inverter motor.
• Lots of programs. There is a fast one in 15 minutes.
• Simple, intuitive controls.

Although it consumes more water - 50 liters. 94% of buyers are satisfied with the quality of her work.

Hotpoint-Ariston RST 7029 S

Equipped with Digital Motion technology, which, together with an inverter motor, provides up to 10 types of drum rotation. This allows the smart machine to select the most suitable modes for each type of laundry, taking into account its characteristics. Therefore, the washing machine not only achieves complete removal of dirt, but also protects things from damage. Designed for loading up to 7 kg. Performs 16 programs. In addition to those described above, includes Stain Removal. It is designed to get rid of any of the most difficult stains without the need for pre-soaking or washing. This is achieved by a combination of certain methods of rotating the drum and alternately using different types of washing. The Wool Mode is so gentle spinning that Woolmark (one of the world's leading wool manufacturers) has confirmed it can be used for hand wash items. It differs from Weissgauff in lower spinning revolutions - up to 1000 per minute. And it belongs to a smaller energy efficiency class (A ++), although it is higher than that of the leaders of the rating.

Benefits:

• Big load.
• It washes well dirt (for example, cuffs and shirt collars).
• There is a compartment for liquid products.

Differs in the presence of a special program for removing stains and a truly careful attitude to clothes. Does not provide for steam treatment and other special options typical of the leaders of the rating.In addition, it squeezes out the laundry at a low speed (like most machines in the inexpensive segment). Nevertheless, the model has received many positive reviews on the Yandex Market. And 96% of users recommend it for purchase.

Indesit BWSA 61051

The penultimate place in the rating is occupied by Indesit BWSA 61051. It is designed for loading up to 6 kg. Intelligent control is expressed in the adjustment of the water flow rate according to the load level thanks to the Water Balance Plus sensor. The model works in 16 modes, which are almost similar to the two previous machines. A special feature of Indesit is the pre-installed short programs. For example, you can wash cotton items at 40 ° C in just 45 minutes or at 60 ° C in 59 minutes. Like most of the manufacturer's models, the BWSA 61051 allows you to wash things with one click using Push & Wash (no need to select temperatures and modes). This program lasts 45 minutes and allows you to gently remove any dirt without soaking. There is a delay start timer, but it is designed for no more than 9 hours. Although for most machines you can postpone switching on for up to 20 hours (for Weissgauff - up to 24 hours). Works in 16 modes, which are similar to Ariston. Spin is performed at standard speed (1000 per minute). Another advantage of Indesit BWSA 61051 is the ability to clean the drum without using any special means. There is a special program for this.

But consumes less water per cycle. In general, a reliable budget machine. 87% of buyers are completely satisfied with her work.

Samsung WF8590NLW9

The last place in the rating is occupied by Samsung WF8590NLW9. But this is not caused by the quality of work, but rather by the opportunities provided, if we compare them with the rest of the TOP models. For example, the machine is designed to run only 8 programs. And although all the main ones are present, some may lack special modes (for example, for denim or down clothes). The quick wash lasts 30 minutes. Like the more expensive Samsung in this rating, this model is equipped with a Diamond drum and allows you to load laundry right during the wash, which is not available in many budget models. It also surpasses them with a special technology for feeding water into the tray, which completely flushes out the powder and does not leave water in it. The model is designed for loading up to 6 kg. The machine is equipped with Volt Control to protect the engine. This function monitors the voltage in the network and turns off the washing machine when it surges.

Benefits:

• Washes well.
• Simple controls.
• Does not vibrate during spinning.
• Calculates the washing time according to the load, like more expensive models.
• No powder or water remains in the tray.

Disadvantages:

• Small things can get stuck near the window and not wash (you need to use a bag).
• Not very clear instruction.

Samsung WF8590NLW9 for 20,000 rubles is an excellent budget machine with a minimum of features. Despite the cost, it is equipped with a Diamond drum, surge protection and child lock. Washes things well. For particularly dirty clothes, you can choose a special stain removal program. It does not have as many programs as its counterparts in this price category (Indesit BWSA 61051, Hotpoint-Ariston RST 7029 S). But it consumes a little water and does not make as much noise as Indesit. 92% of owners of this machine are ready to recommend it for purchase.
