Ardo washing machine reviews
Washing machine ARDO TLN 85 EW
Love:
I haven't had time to figure out how to use the car yet. I just bought it. The salespeople at the store are weird. They can't really answer a single question. They didn't explain how to set the programs or what controls what. There's a turbo button, but it won't turn on. I called the service center, and they couldn't really explain anything to me either. They said the function might not even be there, even though the button is there. I don't understand how that's possible.
It doesn't wash clothes very quickly. It doesn't save electricity or water at all. I used to have a German-made BOSCH. It washed everything perfectly for over ten years. It's such a shame that it's so old and completely broken.
Pros: I haven't found it yet.
Cons: there is no turbo function.

Stas:
The machine is high-quality. The washing is a solid B! I bought it online. I was specifically looking for one assembled in Europe. Russian and Chinese ones are not an option. They break down often. Before this one, I had another machine from the same company. Only a vertical one. It served faithfully for about ten years. And now it's retired. We've sent it to kindergarten. We're rarely there, so it won't be working very often.
Pros:
- The door opens fully, not like some cars.
- It itself is quite narrow, just right for our bathroom, to save space.
- The design is unconventional. The body is black, which makes it stand out from other white devices.
- If installed according to all the rules, it is almost silent.
- There are all the necessary modes.
- European assembly.
- Very economical. Consumption rating A+.
- The display is neat and not too bright.
- It's perfectly suitable for repair. The tank is not disposable.
- Convenient controls. Everything is simple and clear.
Cons: There are no particular downsides.

This machine is a beast!))) It's been washing for 9 years! We use it several times a week. And it's only broken down once. And even then, the repair wasn't expensive. We only had to replace the drain pump. It didn't cost much. It's a very good washing machine, it's even a shame to part with it. But it's time to replace it with a new model. The old one is starting to act up. I'll get an Ardo. I don't know which one yet. But I was happy with my last Ardo. Now I'm only considering this brand. I recommend the same one to everyone!
Now I'll read the reviews and go shopping to look for a replacement too!
Pros: Long and high-quality work. The investment was definitely worth it!!!
Cons: no defects found.

Alina:
It's a pretty good machine. I just don't like using the recommended wash settings. So I set everything myself. After all, I want the wash to be exactly how I want it, not what the programmer who created everything wanted. If I think it's necessary, I increase the speed or add extra rinses, a stronger spin, and so on. I read in one review that the machine doesn't rinse out the detergent well. Isn't it possible to add less? And if the clothes are heavily soiled, it's better to increase the wash temperature than simply add more detergent.
My washer has been working for over 8 years now! It's been doing a good job all this time. But it's clearly worn out. It's become noisier, although many machines are already noisy. I've also developed a problem with the spin cycle. Sometimes it simply won't spin the laundry. I still don't want to throw it out. I'm hoping to find a similar Ardo machine for sale first. But I haven't found one yet. I guess they don't make them like that here anymore.
All the programs on my machine are set on top, under a special cover. There's only one button on the outside. And no child safety lock is needed. What's there to press on the outside? I really like my machine. I don't think I'll be able to find another one like it. It's a shame it's about to break down.

Irina:
My model isn't like this one. But it works – it's just awful!!! You can only start the wash cycle by pushing the door hard. Without that, the wash won't even begin! I've really gotten used to it. For some reason, the water heating doesn't always turn on. It's like a lottery: fifty-fifty))) Sometimes it sits for hours and just runs the laundry. Apparently, it freezes mid-cycle. Sometimes it fills with water, fills, and fills. It just won't stop. And often, it starts the wash cycle without heating.
It doesn't listen to anything. It's its own boss. And last time, it even started spinning the laundry in the drum without water! I just didn't add any, that's all! I'm not even going to call the service center. I'm so fed up with this machine that I'd rather pay more and get a new, good one. Not one like this one! I wouldn't recommend buying an ARDO washing machine to anyone!!!
Pros: The only advantage is that you won't be doing the washing, but the machine.
Cons: Buying and using this machine is one big downside! And a nightmare!
Washing machine ARDO TL 105 S
Michael:
I bought a washing machine back in 2008. It's never broken down before. We usually wash every two or three days. We don't overload the drum. After it broke, I figured it out myself and replaced the valve. It wasn't expensive, about $5. I replaced it without any problems; I read about it on the website. I did everything correctly, and the machine started working again.
Pros: I fixed it myself without any problems.
Cons: One of the main drawbacks is the delay before all programs start, and you have to wait before the door opens after washing. It's also worth noting that we only use expensive detergent. However, the wash quality isn't always high. We suspect this is due to the machine itself.

Svetlana:
After reading forums and reviews about washing machines, I decided the most important thing for me was for the machine to last as long as possible and not break down. But yesterday, mine broke down. It had some kind of problem with the module. I live in a village. The specialists here are lousy… and they charge a lot. And the warranty period had already expired!
Since I bought it, it hasn't broken down at all in six years. That's what I really liked about it! The machine is smart. You only need to set the type of fabric and the temperature. And it takes care of the rest. It takes up little space. I put the washing machine in the hallway. And its small size made it easy to walk around. However, one wash cycle took quite a long time. And it was quite noisy.
Pros: Long, trouble-free operation. Washed well for six years. Convenient controls. Intelligent.
Cons: Very long washing cycles. And noise. I didn't like the loud noise.

Valentina Nikolaevna:
I bought a car on the advice of a consultant. And I'm very unhappy with this purchase. Before this, I had a Samsung car and another LG car. I sold them all, along with the living space. I think they still work well. I've never had any problems with them.
We bought the Ardo machine ten days ago. We just installed it today. We were renovating our apartment, so we had no time for it. We read the operating instructions. We installed everything, turned it on, and started the wash cycle. The wash cycle lasted over two hours. And as it turned out, it didn't even spin! So we turned on a separate spin cycle. We set it to 1000 rpm. We waited. And nothing changed. The clothes stayed wet!
We had to spend two hours manually washing everything out. Next time, we set a different setting. We thought maybe that would be okay. But no luck there either. The same wet laundry in the end. It wouldn't spin and that's it!
Looks like it needs to be replaced. I'll have to call the store. I hope there won't be any problems with the replacement.
Pros: It's not clear.
Cons: It doesn't work properly. I don't know if it washes well, but it won't spin.
Washing machine ARDO FLSN 106 SW

This is a really good machine. I like both the price and the features. Everything is fine. It's been running for two years. Everything is just great, no problems or malfunctions. The machine is assembled in Ukraine. We've washed large items, like blankets, winter jackets, and more. It handles everything perfectly! I also like the design. It's very stylish. And it looks great in the kitchen, as if it was made specifically for it!
Pros:
- Washes and spins without much noise.
- There is a quick wash that lasts about 20 minutes.
- Can wash up to 6 kg of laundry.
- It doesn't wobble during the spin cycle. It stands firmly.
- Control panel without unnecessary hassles.
- When spinning at 500 rpm, everything is fine.
Cons: When I set the spin cycle to 1000 RPM, the machine damaged my jacket. So, we don't spin at that speed anymore. Otherwise, everything's fine. It's been working like a charm for two years now!

Marishka:
I bought this Ardo model. I immediately noticed that the dispenser was very difficult to close. Twice, it shut off by itself mid-cycle. Three months passed, and finally, the electronics broke. We called a technician. He said the problem was a crack. They spent six months at the service center, unable to decide whether they would cover the repairs under warranty or whether we would have to pay. In the end, they decided we would have to pay.
I decided to get to the bottom of this and called the service center. I explained that the machine had been connected by a specialist, not by us. He had removed all the bolts before installation. They told me there was no way we could prove that all the bolts had been removed before the first start-up. They also refused to fix it for free. After that, I will never buy their appliances again. I didn't like how they treated their customers like that. Don't buy Ardo!!!!
Pros: It seemed to wash normally when there were no glitches.
Cons: The service didn't repair the car under warranty and wanted money from us!!!

I've had my ARDO A1000 for 14 years now. I'm very happy with it. The mechanic recently changed the belt and also praised it. It's not small, though. I lost the manual. Can anyone help? What does the button with the letter E and the scale mean? Thanks in advance.
The button with the letter E is associated with water heating: if you press it, the water will not heat up above 60 degrees during washing, even when a higher temperature is specified in the settings.
Scales - provides water savings when washing small amounts of laundry (less than 3 kg).
Regarding the ARDO T80 X, it lasted 15 years, but everything breaks eventually, which is a shame. I don't think you'll find another one like it anymore.
Hello! Does anyone have a manual for the ARDO A1000L? Please help.
We have an Ardo A600 X. It's 19 years old. It's served us faithfully and deserves a monument. Well done, Italians. When we bought it, it was one of the most expensive Ardos. It's a bit noisy, especially during the spin cycle. But in all its service life, it's only needed one repair—a capacitor replacement for $2. Now, the old machine isn't as enthusiastic as it used to be, and the wash quality has deteriorated a bit, but we take care of it: we don't load it with a full 5 kg load. The technician said it'll last a while. The motor is good, and such a long lifespan is unimaginable for modern washing machines. I recommend it to everyone. Maybe other brands' machines are more functional now and deserve attention and high ratings, but when comparing price and quality, Ardo washing machines win. I give them my highest rating.
We also have an ARDO A 600X. My machine worked for 16 years without any repairs or Calgon. It's true that our water is mountainous. I washed every day for 3-4 hours. Yesterday, everything was fine. But today I turned it on, and the light was on, but it wasn't pumping any water. And the motor wasn't making any noise. I flushed all the hoses, but that didn't help.
I have an ARDO TL1000 EX. The quick wash cycle takes 40 minutes, but I was happy with it. We bought it in 2003. Now it needs repair—the stainless steel drum lid is cracked. I can't find a replacement for this model; I'd rather keep it running. Can anyone help?
I also have an Italian-made Ardo machine. It's been working for 15 years. It's only now started having problems with the computer. I'm very happy with the machine. It's served me faithfully, as they say. I'm currently looking for an equivalent, but so far so good. Any advice on something similar?
The machine stopped spinning and won't drain. What should I do?
Check the pump
My 16-year-old Ardo TL800X drains but has stopped spinning. It gets stuck on cycle 7 (spin) and continues washing endlessly. Is it worth repairing or throwing away? The metal tub and drum are fine, and the rubber is fine; I recently replaced the bearings.
Ardo A800X. It's been running for about 20 years! The pump and brushes have been replaced, and the water level sensor tube has been cleaned. That's it! Our family's favorite machine!
ARDO TL107SW. Bought in 2021. After a year and a half, the drum flanges broke. Now it's not working because there are no spare parts. The service center doesn't have any either.
