Positive

Natalia, Samara

My husband and I got this washing machine for next to nothing, thanks to a lucky late-night sale at a major appliance store. Despite its small load capacity of 3.5 kg, it washes well and flawlessly. You can select the spin speed; the optimal speed is 800 rpm, but you can also set it to 1000 rpm. The lack of child protection slightly spoils the positive impression of the machine. I don't even know how to protect my washing machine from my little daughter anymore; she's always messing with it. Overall, I'm impressed, and I'd give it a 5.

The pre-wash feature is a plus. This feature allows you to pre-soak your laundry, which provides excellent results when removing stubborn stains.

The appliance is fine, worth buying. The washing machine is narrow, very inexpensive, and a good option for a small family. It vibrates a lot during the spin cycle, but the noise level is moderate. I'm completely satisfied with the wash quality. I haven't regretted buying it; I've been using it for two years now.

Anna, Ryazan

The washing machine is very easy to use and completely unpretentious. The quality is high, given the ridiculous price. It washes clothes well, and I've tried different washing powders. Even with a cheap one, the wash quality is satisfactory. It's a bit noisy, which is my nephew's. Electrolux EWS 1052 NDU washing machine, so you can barely hear it while washing. I'm happy with the purchase, nothing else to say.

Jack Black, Vitebsk

A very convenient and simple washing machine. It's very easy to figure out how to use it, especially since the control panel is labeled in Russian. No issues after six months of use. I highly recommend it!

I recently threw out my old washing machine and bought an Indesit. I really like it; the old one looks bulky and unsightly compared to the new one. It has a very small load capacity, but since I live alone, it's fine for me. It's a bit annoying that you can't wash large items, but I don't have to wash them often, so I take my jackets and blankets to my mom's; she has an LG with an 8 kg load capacity. I haven't found any particular drawbacks, I highly recommend it!

Alex, Vladikavkaz

The washing machine performs perfectly, you can be sure of that; I tested all the modes just for fun. There's no noticeable vibration at all drum speeds, indicating the machine is well-balanced. However, keep in mind that if you make a mistake during installation, the washing machine will bounce around and make more noise. The lack of a remaining wash time indicator is a bit annoying, but otherwise, everything is fine. A great washing machine!

Alfina, Kemerovo

I spent quite a while considering this washing machine, as my sister has the exact same one. Finally, I decided to buy it. My overall impressions of both identical washing machines are as follows.

  1. Very simple and affordable.
  2. Quite a solid build.
  3. There is nothing superfluous on the control panel, which gives it an ascetic, but at the same time attractive appearance.
  4. There are a variety of washing programs, including everyone's favorite "quick wash" and "prewash."
  5. It has a removable top cover, which allowed us to build it under the countertop.

It would be ideal if the drum weighed at least 5 kg, but that's not really a deal-breaker. It's fine as is for a family of two, but if we have a child, I'll force my husband to buy a new machine.

Indesit is a real pain in the ass. If you don't have enough problems in life, then don't hesitate to buy this appliance; you're guaranteed to have problems. Personally, I ran into problems with the electronics, and the tricky thing was that the machine worked out of the warranty period, and then it simply stopped working. I turned it on, the lights were on, and I couldn't select a program. At the repair shop, they explained that a burnt-out triac on the control board needed to be replaced. They charged me a ton of money. The washing machine started working, but two weeks later, the same thing happened again. Junk! I don't recommend buying it!

Alena, Orenburg

I'm not happy with my washing machine. I have to constantly rewash and re-rinse my clothes. It's a constant cycle; sometimes the machine washes, rinses, and spins everything well, but other times, no matter what I put in, it doesn't work! Maybe there's a glitch in the program, because once the machine took a long time to fill with water, and the wash cycle lasted five hours instead of the two it should have. I thought it was the end of the world. It's been a year and a half since we bought it, and we're still struggling. We've never even had time to call a repairman.

Larisa, Moscow

At first, everything was fine, the machine washed, and the laundry looked fine, but then something terrible happened. The washing machine started producing rust-stained laundry. I really don't know what to do, because this isn't the first time this has happened. I'll be calling for service; it looks like it needs repairs.
