Progress in the 21st century is gaining and gaining momentum! Literally every day, scientists and developers show the world the latest inventions in any of the spheres of life. But, any of us is not too interested now, we will talk here about an innovative technology - Fuzzy Logic in a washing machine.
The name, of course, is sonorous and mysterious. But what does it mean? And is it worth what it is estimated at? After all, the cost of such machines is prohibitively high. Let's - ka, together, we will understand this issue.
What is Fuzzy Logic in simple words and deeds
Translated from English, this expression literally means fuzzy logic. In general, the term is mathematical and it is used to program models of human behavior and thinking!
You yourself understand that such a scale of programming in a washing machine is simply impossible. Simply, manufacturers really liked the term, and they decided to apply it to their innovation.
But how does the declared function of artificial intelligence work in washing machines?
In order to quickly explain the difference between a conventional machine program based on clear algorithms and Fuzzy Logic, it is enough to imagine the difference between cooking soup in a multicooker and on a regular stove. In a multicooker, the liquid will not evaporate, the gas will not go out accidentally and the hostess will not forget to add salt in time, since this is all done before she closed the lid of the multicooker. The rest is already a matter of technology. She will cook and fry and turn it off in time.
On the stove, however, the soup can wait for all sorts of surprises. And the hostess herself makes a decision to rectify the situation, looking at what happened: add salt, add boiled water, add spices if the taste is not saturated enough. That is, he makes a decision - according to a specific situation. Today she added 1 liter of water, and tomorrow she poured the same liter, since it turned out to be superfluous.
Do you see what an interesting thing? That is, a washing machine equipped with this function behaves like a refueling mistress. It controls the amount of water itself, based on the weight of the laundry, adjusts the amount of added detergent, increases or decreases the drum rotation speed ...
That is, if, in an ordinary machine, you need to set the temperature, make a decision about spinning and the amount of powder, then in this case, you do not need to think. The washing machine logic will come up with everything for you!
And, instead of pressing multiple buttons, you only need to press one. This is where progress has come!

Is there a real benefit and what are the disadvantages of this technology
But progress, of course, is a great and noble cause. But is Fuzzy Logic technology really worth it? After all, in fact, what's the difference how many times you press the button?
If the problem is that making decisions about the presentation of programs is difficult for you, then - of course, buy! But, if there is no problem with this, then what will this machine give?
The manufacturer guarantees the following benefits:
- Substantial water savings
- Saving energy
- Reduced consumption of detergents
It seems tempting.But, is it really so? After all, no one forces you to put an increased rate of powder initially, right? And, the saving of water and light is not so great to cover the price of such equipment with your profit.
And, by the way, these machines have a couple of fat cons:
- If the "intellect" breaks down, fixing the board will cost such a pretty penny that it won't seem like a little. And the more complex the program, the more vulnerable and short-lived it is.
- Impossibility of planning time. If in an ordinary machine you know for sure that the wash will end in exactly 30 minutes, you hang out the laundry and go on business, then this number will not work with this machine. She regulates the process herself, not at all worrying about your plans. You counted on half an hour, and she washes an hour, for example, because she decided that half an hour would not be enough for this type of pollution.
In general, think for yourself, decide for yourself whether to have a second mistress in the house or not. But we, as thrifty, harmful and fair people, do not consider the situation in favor of marketers, but in favor of the average consumer, moreover, the average income.
Which typewriters do not have this function, but the name is?
I don’t think that we will surprise you very much if we say that this sonorous name is also liked by those who did not even think of embedding such logic in their technique. And this is not cheating at all. In the modern world, this is called a marketing move.
Therefore, first of all, pay attention to the listed functionality of the machine. If she does not "know how" to weigh the laundry, determine the type of fabric and the temperature of the water, then this is the same artificial intelligence as Poplavsky is a singer.
We can state unequivocally that, in inexpensive machines there is no such logic and cannot be, even if it is written that it is there.
Top 5 washing machines with Fuzzy Logic function
The list is arranged in descending order of popularity and frequency of purchases.
Samsung Wf -1802-XEC
A machine with a load of 8 kg, which, in addition to artificial intelligence, has a couple of attractive features. For example, the control of foaming and the ability to freshen up the laundry, giving it a fresh scent, without resorting to washing with water. The price is about 13,000 hryvnia.
Lg F– 1281-TD
Loading 8 kg, in addition to Fuzzy Logic has 13 more programs, one of which is quite interesting - this is the silent wash mode. The price is about 10 600 hryvnia.
Electrolux EWT -1366-HDW
Loading 6 kg, vertical loading. Equipped with built-in leakage protection and 7 washing programs. The price is about - 16 500 hryvnia.

Loading 5 kg, narrow. Has protection against leaks and the ability to add a new portion of laundry during washing. The price is about 9,000 hryvnia.
Asko W -6884 –ECO W
Loading 8 kg, has 12 programs, the function of automatic weighing and acceleration of revolutions during spinning reaches 1800 per minute. The price is about 37 300 hryvnia.
As you can see, only one model indicates, in addition to the name, the corresponding functionality. And such a washing machine costs much more than other machines. So, whether there is Fuzzi Logic in the washing machine or not, you can see for yourself.
