Indesit Top-Loading Washing Machine Reviews

Demand for front-loading washing machines in Russia is significantly higher than for top-loading machines. A top-loading washing machine is a lifesaver for owners of small apartments. It can be installed even in the smallest of spaces. The Italian brand Indesit is trusted by customers worldwide, so this brand is often the first choice. Let's review real user reviews of Indesit top-loading washing machines to understand how reliable and functional their models are.

Indesit WITL 867

Our family had been using an Indesit 86 washing machine faithfully for over 10 years, so when it broke down, we decided to buy a similar one. After searching the internet, I came across an identical model, with a slightly different number.

I didn't expect to find a "twin" for our washing machine so easily. We bought our new "home helper" at the Corporation Center. The price was very pleasing – about $190 for a machine with excellent functionality and high reliability.

It is important to note that the Indesit WITL 867 is manufactured and assembled directly in Italy, where the main production facility is located.

The bathroom in our apartment is very narrow, so there was no choice between a front-facing or a vertical one. The small dimensions of the model allow it to be placed in a small area. And after reading customer reviews, I realized that top-loading machines are more durable and reliable.

The washing machine is very easy to operate. The main control panel features electronic-mechanical controls. All the options and modes typical of a modern washing machine are pre-programmed into the control panel, including wrinkle prevention, delayed start, eco wash, and more.

The drum can hold up to 5 kg of items at a time. The build quality is excellent: all joints are tight and secure. Areas where water might leak are carefully sealed with rubber.

Before installing the model, do not forget to remove the mounting bolts, otherwise there is a high risk of damaging the equipment.

I installed and connected the washing machine myself; the entire process took no more than 20 minutes. We've been using it for three months now and have had no problems so far. The machine runs smoothly, washes and spins clothes well. I hope we'll enjoy it as much as our previous Indesit washing machine.

I'm very happy with our new purchase. The Indesit BTW D51052 top-loading washing machine is compact, so it fits in our small bathroom. I'm very pleased with its features: high-speed spin, 14 special wash modes, high-quality cleaning, and a variety of extras.

The machine runs almost silently, and I often run it overnight. Regarding programs, you can choose "express clean" or a long wash cycle lasting 2-4 hours. The "Eco-wash" option helps us save electricity. The price is reasonable, and the warranty is one year. The price and market value of the washing machine are quite consistent with the stated functionality and build quality.

In our family, there was no question at all about buying Indesit equipment. Our first "helper" was also an Italian washing machine, which served us faithfully for eight years. Then we renovated the kitchen, redecorated the room, and purchased another Indesit machine, which has been working flawlessly for eight years now.

Indesit BTW D51052 washes well, works quietly, and spins clothes well. The machine is very easy to operate; even our seven-year-old child can easily load clothes and select the desired washing program.

Shikoalla, Novotroitsk

My review won't be about the washing machine's advantages, but rather about its numerous shortcomings (in my opinion). I had to buy an inexpensive Indesit model after my old one suddenly broke down.

After four months of use, problems began to arise: the system wouldn't switch to the "Spin" mode, the digital display would freeze, etc. While spinning clothes, the machine would start to vigorously "jump," literally "moving around the room." We tried installing new software, but it didn't help. Diagnostics revealed no issues with the system.

I'm not comfortable using my washing machine. As soon as I save up enough money for a good one, I'll immediately replace it.

Maria Filippova, Yoshkar-Ola

The main advantage of this model is its top-loading design. Otherwise, there are no other advantages: the washing machine is too deep, difficult to open, and lacks a digital display. In my opinion, the model is not very reliable.

I bought the machine on credit, and the final price was no more than $220. The courier delivered the machine, after which my husband quickly installed it. We started the machine and noticed the indicator light came on, indicating a problem with the water tank. As it turned out, we were unlucky; the machine had a manufacturing defect.
