Which washing machine manufacturer should you choose?

When studying any model of washing machine, you can find both pros and cons. But equipment produced under certain brands has more advantages than disadvantages, which is why it is more popular among consumers. Which washing machine manufacturer deserves customer loyalty? Whose production is the most reliable and high quality?

Inexpensive brands

A number of companies working on the production of washing machines are developing models of various price categories. Their products are presented in the budget, medium and expensive price categories.

Among low-priced automatic machines, models produced by the Electrolux and Bosch brands attract attention. According to statistics, the breakdown rate for Bosch brand appliances does not exceed 5%, while for Electrolux machines it is slightly higher, about 7%. According to experts, such technology can be called “indestructible.” It can serve without failure for years, which proves its high quality, and among these machines you can also find budget models.

The malfunctions that most often occur in Electrolux and Bosch washing machines are often minor. You can fix them yourself, without the help of specialists. For example, in models of the low price category of the Bosch brand, problems arise with the handle installed on the hatch door. It is made of plastic and may break. To open the door, you just need to use an ordinary dinner fork once, after which the faulty part is easy to replace, especially since spare parts for Bosch machines are relatively inexpensive.

Electrolux is a Swedish brand, but the company's production facilities are located in some European and Asian countries. The company's employees are faced with the task of carefully monitoring the quality of equipment assembly. And buyers can choose any model from a variety of options equipped with the latest technical developments. For example, many Electrolux washing machines have a steam treatment function, can remember frequently used washing modes, and effectively distribute and save detergents.

Another inexpensive brand is LG. The Korean washing machines offered by him are distinguished by the reliability of electronics and decent quality of components. Craftsmen note that even those direct drive devices that were produced back in the 2000s and have now reached the end of their service life still remain operational and continue to be used.

Important! LG technology has a drawback. When installing it at home, you should take into account that it is very sensitive to location.

When the surface on which the machine stands deviates from the horizontal, shaking occurs, especially during spinning. This leads to damage to the dampers.

Premium cars

Buyers often express the opinion that there is no point in purchasing a premium washing machine. After all, the equipment will effectively work out its resource, but you will also have to pay a considerable amount for it, which may be enough to purchase 2-3 budget models. In this case, they can be changed every few years. And yet there are enough consumers who are willing to pay for reliability and the highest quality. Many of them do not want to choose new equipment every time and prefer to purchase a luxury model once.

Miele brand equipment is worthy of the attention and trust of consumers. It combines useful, convenient functions with innovative technical solutions.

Washing machines can operate without problems for up to 15 years or more. And users speak positively about the low noise level, clear interface and stability of the products.

The luxury category also includes automatic cars from the Bosch and Siemens brands. Their distinctive characteristics:

• reliability of individual components and connections;
• stability of electronics;
• effective laundry cleaning;
• availability of additional functions, for example, SMS notifications.

In Russia, Bosch technology is more common compared to Siemens. It is equipped with spare parts supplied from Germany. And work on assembling devices in another country is minimized. According to experts, this has a positive effect on the service life of the machines.

The Siemens brand boasts popularity in Germany. Many of its models are equipped with AquaSensor sensors that respond to the opacity and purity of water, as well as an additional AquaStop system, which, in the event of a breakdown, blocks the flow of water.

When choosing between the presented brands, you can take into account that even budget equipment from the Korean brand LG can serve without serious failures for more than 10 years. Each of the brands presented in the review received many positive reviews from consumers in different countries of the world.
