The home appliance market offers washing machines from not only German, Chinese, and Russian brands, but also Turkish brands. These include Beko machines. They are attractive due to their low price and ease of use. But how long does this equipment last and how reliable is it? We'll find out from customers using the Beko WKB 51001 M washing machine as an example.

We bought this from CityLink about two months ago. We decided not to pay extra for installation; my husband did it himself. The machine, unlike, say, an Indesit, is completely quiet. A single-size wool blanket fit comfortably in the 5-kilogram drum. It spins quickly and efficiently, practically drying at 800 or 1000 RPM. I haven't seen anything better for the price. And most importantly, the quick 29-minute program is wonderful; it washes baby clothes well after being outside. The washing machine is compact; in short, I've only found positives so far.

I debated for a long time between choosing a Beko or Indezt, and I read a lot of reviews. In the end, we're using a Beko washing machine, which has survived multiple moves from our rental apartment. It's been working great for three years now, and I hope it continues to do so.
A huge advantage is that if the power is accidentally turned off and then turned on, the machine continues to operate according to the set program.

With a small child, I simply had no time to wash clothes by hand; without a washing machine, life would be a disaster. I decided to buy the Beko WKB 51001 MS, which has a wide range of programs and washing functions. Overall, I highly recommend this machine; you won't regret it.

We bought this washing machine quite a while ago, several years ago. We have no complaints about it, it's a little noisy when spinning, but that's not a big deal. It washes perfectly, washing clothes in even 30 minutes, which allows you to save electricity. The automatic water supply also saves water. This machine has a wide range of programs, 15 in total, plus leak protection. And, of course, the best part about this setup is the price: just $150.

Hello everyone! I'd like to share my impressions of the wonderful Beko automatic washing machine with a 5-kilogram capacity. We bought this machine because it has one of the simplest controls. The program is set by turning the knob and pressing the start button, and you can pause the washing process if needed.
This machine proved to be easy to use, even with a small power surge. It washed perfectly at high temperatures and spun almost dry at 1000 rpm. However, the drain filter location is a bit inconvenient. Unfortunately, there are a few other drawbacks:
The washing temperature is not adjustable, which means that on a 30-minute program the machine only washes in water at 30 degrees, and other modes also do not change;
It makes a lot of noise during spinning, regardless of the speed; the drum rattles due to the imbalance of the laundry, which gathers into one lump;
A lot of water remains in the filter, which flows out during cleaning, and it's impossible to place anything under the drain hole because the filter is located very low. I use a lot of rags, which is inconvenient.

I bought a washing machine for my daughter based on the dimensions of her bathroom. This machine, although narrow, holds quite a lot of clothes. Don't expect much from it, but it does a very good job of washing. For the price, it's simply a wonderful machine, in every way.

We chose a washing machine based on our budget and ordered it online. Our old machine worked like that; you can't find one like it these days. Unlike Atlant washing machines, this one jumps, leaving behind horrible black streaks on the floor. Additional stands did not produce any results, the car still jumps. Taking the machine to a service center was inconvenient, so I called a technician to my home. He was surprised by the vibration and said he'd never encountered anything like it.
We ended up welding the legs onto the machine ourselves, and it bounced much less. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this machine to anyone; it's unreliable. If you decide to get one, make sure it's wide, not narrow; it should be more stable.

The machine washes very well, but that's about it. Even at 40°C (104°F) settings, the machine starts to wobble during the program, sometimes shifting as much as half a meter. Neither the rubber feet nor the special mat helped. After each wash, I have to put the machine back in place, and the feet also need to be tightened, as the vibration causes them to come loose. One time, the vibration completely caused a foot to come off, along with the threads. I'll have to fix it myself.
Contacting the manufacturer with this problem yielded no results; no one believes that a leg can fall out due to washing.

This cute machine arrived at our house in a broken state. There was a chip on the body. The customer service at the store was terrible; it took a long time to get it installed. It wobbles terribly during the wash and spin cycles, tilting up to 30 degrees. The powder drawer is flimsy, prone to falling out or breaking, and it's difficult to pour the powder into. The washing performance is fine, but the build quality is terrible. I don't recommend this model.

The machine's price is quite attractive, but it performs terribly. It makes noise, bounces, vibrates, and even runs, even though it's level. The stands didn't help at all; an anti-vibration mat improved the situation slightly. The machine washes and spins well, but don't be tempted by that alone; don't buy it.

Terrible washing machine, after just two days of use I am disappointed. After all, all my light and white T-shirts remain dirty, the same with socks, it feels like things are not washed at all. What should I do now? Will they take this car back from me? Probably not.

I'm sharing my story about my washing machine. I've had it for six months now, and I've used it very sparingly, even on the quick wash cycle, as my clothes aren't very dirty. I've washed my work clothes in it a couple of times that were stained with oil, though I did soak them in a basin first. At 90 degrees, everything came out clean, but keep in mind that oil at that temperature can damage rubber parts, including the seal.
But getting to the point, after 20 washes, the machine stopped spinning, and the laundry remained wet, although I was still able to spin the items with a separate spin cycle. I had the same problem with my old Samsung. Also, the Beko stopped heating the water, which is a real pain. I'll have to take it in for repairs. I also didn't like that the water temperature can't be adjusted. It must be a defective model. P.S. I got it repaired under warranty, and everything is fine.
Stupid washing machine, not even a year old and it already stopped heating water.
