The best activator washing machines

Automatic cars are undoubtedly very convenient. This technique independently performs all stages of washing; the user only needs to load laundry into the drum, fill the powder receptacle and press a few buttons. But the accumulated amount is not always enough to buy an automatic washing machine, then you have to choose more budget options. Let's talk about the best activator-type washing machines. In fact, semi-automatic machines do an excellent job of removing dirt and are quite inexpensive. Let’s figure out which of the models on the market is better to choose.

Machines without centrifuge

There may be several reasons to choose an activator type machine instead of an automatic washing machine. Firstly, it is the price - semi-automatic machines are much cheaper. Secondly, the sizes. Even the narrowest frontal or vertical models may not fit in the bathroom, then compact “activators” will come to the rescue.

Activator washing machines are in great demand among summer residents. Many people think it makes no sense to bring an automatic machine to the site, so preference is given to inexpensive units. Let's present a rating of the most compact models without a centrifuge. When choosing a semi-automatic machine without spinning, you should pay attention to the following models:

• Slavda WS-30ET;
• RENOVA WS-35E;
• Fairy SM-2.

The first on the list is the Slavda WS-30ET activator machine. The maximum permissible loading weight is 3 kg. The washing machine is controlled mechanically - on the top panel there are rotary switches for selecting the mode and setting the washing time. The width, depth and height of the device are 41, 33 and 63.5 cm, respectively. Such a compact unit will “fit” into the smallest room.

Available modes include normal, gentle and intensive wash. The maximum power consumed by the “activator” is 200 W. During the cycle, it is permissible to reload laundry into the centrifuge through the main hatch. The cost of the machine varies from $30 to $33. Judging by customer reviews, Slavda copes with her task perfectly - she washes even complex stains. Among the shortcomings, users note the lack of spin. But if this option is too important, it is better to pay attention to other models from this manufacturer.

The rating continues with the RENOVA WS-35E activator washing machine. Judging by real reviews, the machine washes quickly and well. Main characteristics of the model:

• tank volume – 35 liters;
• maximum permissible load weight – 3.5 kg of laundry;
• washing programs – 3, namely: normal, intensive and gentle;
• cycle duration – from 1 to 32 minutes;
• Warranty period – 1 year.

Thanks to the reverse, things in the centrifuge do not curl into a ball. The average cost of the model is $35-38. There is no spin function, but the dimensions of the device are very compact: 48x48x52.5 cm.

Also on the top cover of the machine are basic recommendations for washing items made from different fabrics. For example, the manufacturer advises “twisting” wool and silk in a gentle mode for 2-5 minutes. For synthetics, a regular cleaning program is suitable, and the timer can be set for 6-10 minutes.

The Fairy SM-2 activator machine closes the top three. This is another compact model, measuring 45 cm in width and 44 and 47 cm in depth and height, respectively. It is possible to reload laundry through the main hatch after the cycle has started. Characteristics of the semi-automatic machine:

• capacity – up to 2 kg of dry laundry;

Fairy cost is from 32 to 38 $, the final price will depend on the seller. If you study user reviews, you can understand that the activator machine is very easy to use, and at the same time provides high quality washing. The unit consumes a minimum of electricity and takes up very little space. This model is perfect for a garden.

You can buy an activator washing machine without a spin function for only $30-40.

If the spin function is very important for you, it is better to pay attention to activator machines with an additional “centrifuge”. They cost a little more, but the dimensions of the case will differ significantly. Let’s imagine a rating of “activators” who know how to wring things out.

Washing machines with spin function

In most cases, users prefer to overpay a little, but buy an activator machine with a spin function. This greatly simplifies and speeds up the washing process. We'll tell you which models are worth paying attention to. Among the favorites:
