A washing machine with a detachable tank up to about PLN 1500.

Question

I did a bit of research in the forum about washing machines with a removable tank and cheap spare parts. In the current Amica, the tank had to be cut open and yesterday the bearing fell again. The repair does not make sense anymore, because the entire washing machine is literally rusty and has...

Who is this Amica?

If Bosch is a WAN .... in my opinion - quiet and economical engine. But disassembling the drum is not what it used to be: in Bosch - like a disassembled drum, but the bearing itself is not (!). Another thing is that I wouldn't insist on a dismountable drum. I have been selling washing machines for 10 years and I am a fan of Ariston (especially the Aqualtis series) I know from my own experience cases that a new washing machine with a replaceable bearing spit out the spout after a week (just Bosch), or even did not start (the programmer fell) In my opinion, the bearings are falling less often (probably so that you can replace them yourself). I will definitely not recommend Samsung (NEVER !!!!!!! trash as I don't know, especially ekobubbel), Electrolux (trauma), Beko and Whirlpool (rust after a year) - but that's just my opinion. I have an Ariston, and I like to recommend LG to good friends - higher models (TurboWasch) and Bosch.

Izzyrajder, can you advise something in my case? I range from Candy (9 kg, PLN 1300 and a 5-year warranty), through Elektrolux (a large drum - I measured with a tape measure) , functions, very good reviews), Lg, Bosch to Miele (but does it really make sense to use a washing machine for so much money? unless it is really eternal My (Candy) has been dying for about 2 years and cannot die, but more and more patience requires setting the washing parameters (the LEDs jump by themselves and it takes a while until I set them as I need). I consider washing machines from 8 kg upwards, I care about a large drum, and I noticed that washing machines can have the same large load, and the drums have a really big difference in drum size. For example, I was considering Hotpoint-Ariston AQ114D 697D EU / B, but I wanted to receive information from the manufacturer regarding e.g. spin settings (I could not find anywhere by myself, neither in stores or on the Internet), but the person representing the manufacturer answered only one question, and the second one (sorry for the description) failed, so I gave up on Hotpoint. Can you write what alienated you from Elektrolux?

After examining the types of washing machines from several manufacturers: Bosh, Siemens, Samsung, Whirlpool, LG, Elektrolux, it turns out that after entering the North catalog, only LG shows bearings to be bought for replacement.
Bosh has a shared drum and what if you have to give PLN 450 for it.
I mean washing machines 7 kg available, because what we have a type of washing machine that is no longer available on the market.

My simple Beko has been working for 9 years, but it has many disadvantages, it goes around the bathroom, extends the time, programs disappear and it is too small for our family. And these problems were from the very beginning, I will not buy this company anymore. The refrigerator also fell in 2 weeks .

Two years ago in the E-lux dark, but now they are loud and poorly balanced (they vibrate), and when I looked underneath (horror!) Savings at every step, the flagship EWFL series is all on a plastic shock absorber (!) and the top hat !. This is not the Electrolux anymore ..... And there is a terrible pressure to do it too. And the representatives themselves say that the company counts rather on built-in household appliances ..... This Candy is a very reasonable choice - 5 years manufacturer's warranty (not a policy) if it's great - but make sure it's the manufacturer !!!!!!!! The settings in Ariston are simple believe me - I have. In Elux, only the hole is large (33cm) and the drum is standard ... for this, I would skip the search for washing machines with a removable drum ...

And is Candy not also plastic inside? It is relatively cheap compared to others, because if 5 years does not help, plastic and rubber parts are not covered by the warranty. Even the usual 2-year-old.

Added after 7 [minutes]:

In Hotpoint, I wanted to know what the lowest spin value is, because there are washing machines where the lowest speed is 800, and then it's already 0. And I would like 400 more, but woman didn't answer anymore. plastic and rubber parts are not covered by the warranty, I guess they don't care about selling.

Izzyrajder · Answer

In my opinion, the price of Candy washing machines is lower than the competition because brand recognition is weaker than that of the competition - a few years ago, beko also struggled with the price, and they are still comparable to Candy. Beko from the Superia series with a load of 8 kg, about PLN 1400 ... and a really good washing machine, but I have no conviction ;-)

Until recently, Beko was also 5 years old, GW in the price have now withdrawn, Candy will also withdraw - you will see (chain stores for washing machines are to sell policies for 5 years, and if the manufacturer gives 5 years - the policies will not press in = large chains do not like 5 years warranty from manufacturer and put pressure on them to shorten these guarantees)
As for the spin speed, my ariston has 600 and that's it. Here, in turn, I will suggest that Ariston has the Woolmark certificate and the cotton 800 cycle is very gentle and safe.
Summing up the 5-year manufacturer's warranty is a big + for Candy (I repeat to my customers over and over again "if the manufacturer gives 5 years for this particular model and for another, it does not mean that he is sure of this model! After all, the service does not want to repair - it's a cost, not everything is done. they claim that it is not covered by the warranty (by the way, it all depends on the method of reporting the defect))

fryck · Answer

What is 5 years? 5-year warranty and a washing machine to be dumped, and where are the rest of the equipment that needs to be replaced from time to time?
The warranty does not say anything, now the car is also 5 years old, and after five years it is rust and syphilis.
Beko is a crap you can see after the entries from several years (unless something has changed recently) and as I wrote, such a cheap promotion has been for many years.
Or I am very lucky that the washing machine with 950 PLN, which keeps jumping, has not crashed the bearing for so many years and I am a raisin or all this internet is crap only for sellers and equipment dealers.

Do you know what I will write back to you? You've been in d.upie and you haven't seen shit. No comment. Electrolux was the first in the world to use plastic shock absorbers with sleeves. He has been using it since around 1996. Invariably until now. And all companies have been using this solution for a long time. You don't know, so don't sign up . And your comment is completely redundant.

Izzyrajder · Answer

But why is this tight boy? I wrote above that I have an injury to E-Lux and I am a seller - not a service technician ..... My opinion is the opinions of customers and sales representatives of individual companies, or an exchange of opinions among similar sellers. Until recently, the electrolux washing machine was reliable (I do not remember the markings, but the series had an orange border on the knob), and the new series (EWFL) had already failed several times ... (I exchanged at least twice for non-compliance with the contract - a manufacturing defect). .. You are a moderator, you have to watch over the discussion culture, not break it yourself !!!!

Anonymous · Answer

I wrote to you as a service technician, not as a salesman. I leave the issues of moderation. I expressed myself in the topic not as a moderator of this Forum, but as regular user who has knowledge and passes it on. I will not change my mind. If you sell equipment, you should know the history. This is what you are missing, so do not question my opinion, because you will look like an idiot in the eyes of possible equipment buyers, proposed by you. Learn first, then sell. Forget about the website, it's a different story. Better tell the customer that he may forget to replace the bearings in said product. Excuse me if I offended your EGO, but the truth in the eyes of the circle.

There are no turns every 200 ... There are 400, 600, 800, 1200, but then already 1600. This is how it is on cotton. You can also check it on the Internet. No less. If you are looking for a washing machine that you do not care about repairing in the future (not an ecological solution) - choose the one that suits you. Preferably with a 5-year warranty (which is not easy). However, after 3-5 years of spinning at very high speeds, the bearing is very likely to be worn out. And this must be borne in mind.

Thanks for the information about the turnover in Hotpoint. I was looking and I couldn't find, maybe I couldn't. I don't think I will buy Hotpoint, since they have such an approach to the customer, I don't care for them.
As for repairs, probably like most would want such a possibility, but many write that now it is disposable. That is why I keep looking and looking and I cannot find. I thought of repairing my 9-year-old Candy as well, but the man from the website said that it is not worth it, that it is not worth driving and buying a new one. So I am going there and I cannot get there, but I am looking for it, because I would like to go calmly, without strapping, that a mountain of laundry is waiting.
