Customer reviews of the Atlant 6 kg washing machine

When choosing a new washing machine, buyers pay attention to several factors. These typically include price, software, dimensions, maximum load capacity, and appearance. The manufacturer lists the key specifications of each model, but only real reviews of the Atlant washing machine can help you understand how it will perform during use. Therefore, it's recommended to read user reviews before choosing a specific washing machine.

For a whole year, I washed absolutely everything by hand. During this time, I became convinced that an automatic washing machine is absolutely essential in the home. As soon as I saved up the necessary funds, I began searching for a washing machine.

I initially wanted a different model, but after reading the reviews, I decided on the Atlant 60U87. Why this machine? It's affordable, roomy, and has a variety of programs. The washing machine isn't particularly stylish in appearance; I'd say it's "standard."

The Atlant washing machine, which holds 6 kg of laundry, has a white plastic body. It's front-loading. The control panel features a program list, a rotary selector, buttons, and an indicator light.

The Atlant washing machine's drum is very roomy – the stated maximum load weight is completely accurate.

This washing machine is perfect for large families. It easily fits outerwear, blankets, and I've even washed pillows. The drum is made of stainless steel, and the tub itself is plastic.

This machine has 15 programs, selected using a rotary dial. This is where I find some inconveniences. If you want to wash items at temperatures above 40°C, the cycle time will be two hours. There's no quick algorithm for heating the water to 60°C. The wash time can't be reduced.

Now about the main thing. The Atlant washing machine washes 100% – any stains are removed from clothes, and there are no detergent stains left on items. The amount of foam in the drum is always just right; there has never been an excess of it during operation.

I liked that this model is quite quiet. If I'm in another room, I can't hear any noise. The machine doesn't bounce around during the spin cycle; it stays in place. However, the end-of-cycle signal is very loud and annoying; it beeps for a very long time, so much so that even the laziest person would get up.

There were times when the power went out in the apartment while I was washing. Immediately after the power came back on, the machine simply continued its cycle. Therefore, the information about Atlantes being resistant to power surges is absolutely true.

When I was buying a washing machine, I was guided solely by the specs and online reviews. Later, I learned that several of my friends had the same model, and had been for several years. They told me I definitely wouldn't be disappointed with my choice. Six months later, I still haven't regretted it.

The machine does have its drawbacks. For me, these include long wash cycles and water stagnation in the drum seal. However, these are minor compared to all the advantages of this washing machine. I recommend buying the Atlant washing machine. This Belarusian brand's equipment is truly reliable and high-quality.

Why I chose the Atlant 60U1213-01 washing machine. We've had an older model from a Belarusian brand at our dacha for seven years now. I trust this manufacturer.

I was satisfied with the dimensions of the Atlant 60U1213-01 model. We have limited space for a washing machine, and this machine is quite narrow despite its good capacity. I was also pleased with the luxurious software content - the washing machine has 16 washing modes in its memory, for all occasions.

This model also has several interesting additional options:

• control panel lock to prevent accidental presses;
• protection against power surges in the network;
• leak protection;
• delayed start timer;
• night mode.

It's convenient that the machine has a display. There's an "Easy Iron" function—it really does keep clothes wrinkle-free. I also like that there's a special shoe program—it's perfect for cleaning sneakers and slippers.

You can add more laundry to the washing machine after the cycle has started. To do this, press the "Start" button. After approximately 2-3 minutes, the door will unlock and can be opened. To restart the cycle, press "Start" again.

You can wash your clothes with either powder or liquid detergents. The main wash dispenser compartment has a special flap. When using gel, the flap flips upright.

As for the noise level, I find it standard, like most washing machines. After each wash, I have to empty the drum seal. As I understand it, this is a weak point of all Atlante machines.

The warranty for Atlant washing machines is 3 years.

I highly recommend the Atlant 60U1213-01. It's a high-quality washing machine that's incredibly easy to use. This automatic machine is definitely worth the money. Its functionality is on par with more expensive models from reputable brands.

I've been using an Atlant 60U87 washing machine for two years now. I've been blaming myself and my husband (since he was the one who insisted on buying this model), and most of all, the manufacturer. I just want to rip the hands of the people who designed and built this machine off.

I've noticed that my washing machine is ruining my laundry, especially cotton items. My drain hose points directly into the bathtub, and after each cycle, I have to clean some bits of dirt from the strainer on the drain hole.

When washing lightweight items, like tulle, so much foam builds up in the drum that it starts spilling out from under the door. At the end of the cycle, a puddle forms under the machine. I tried using less detergent, but the same thing happened.

It seems to me that the machine is taking in too little water for washing. The same thing happens during the rinse cycle; I run this step several times. It is better not to turn on the spin at 1000 rpm, as the washing machine will start to hum and jump around the room. I set the maximum speed to 400 rpm - that suits me.

For those who defend the Atlantis, I can say that before this, I had a Zanussi, which served me faithfully for 20 years. It was repaired twice, and the technicians said they no longer make such high-quality machines. When it broke for the third time, the technicians couldn't help.

I didn't have any similar problems with my previous washing machine. It didn't ruin my clothes and always filled with enough water the first time. So, I'm just not angry enough about the new Atlant washing machine. I hope you don't make the same mistake I did. I don't recommend equipment from this Belarusian brand.

Let me start with the backstory. We were a young family, just moving into an apartment. We weren't exactly broke, and our baby was about to be born. The decision to buy was a spur-of-the-moment decision – we chose a budget-friendly machine. We wanted to kill two birds with one stone, of course – good quality and a low price. We settled on the Atlant 60U1010.

Pros:

• stylish;
• roomy;
• inexpensive.

We can stop here. There are many more downsides:

• when spinning, it jumps like Sukhishvili's ballet;
• the cycle time is constantly changing, as if the machine is “glitching”;
• no foam control, so be prepared for foam parties;
• the washing machine can change the cycle temperature automatically, for example, on a delicate cycle, heat the water to 60 degrees;
• water remains in the drum cuff after each cycle;
• The hatch door sometimes "dances".

The build quality of the Atlant 60U1010 leaves much to be desired.

The first breakdown occurred while the machine was still under warranty. The oddly designed drum frayed the rubber seals. The technicians said the problem could recur after the repair. This was a good sign, considering the machine had been in the service center for a whole month, and I had to do all my laundry by hand the entire time.

The machine worked fine for three months, but then a new problem developed. The washing machine forgot how to shut off the water, so it kept filling and emptying nonstop. I have no desire to repair the washing machine; I suspect this won't be the last time it happens. We'll be buying a new one, and definitely not from a Belarusian manufacturer.

I don't recommend Atlant washing machines to anyone. Here, as they say, the quality matches the price. It's better to pay more for a better one. a reliable washing machine, than to suffer later for several years.
