Dimensions of the Indesit washing machine

When choosing a new washing machine, be sure to check its dimensions, as space for a "home helper" is often limited. This is especially true for built-in appliances. Sometimes, when specifying the dimensions of an Indesit washing machine, the manufacturer can be off by 1-2 centimeters, and this inaccuracy can be fatal. We'll describe the most popular automatic washing machine models, including their exact dimensions.

What should you think about when choosing equipment?

Before purchasing a washing machine, it's important to carefully consider the location where you plan to install it. Certain factors influence the choice of an Indesit automatic washing machine. These include:

• Dimensions of the area allocated for the appliance. Measure the space allocated for the machine and subtract one centimeter from the depth and allowable width to allow for a small gap between the washing machine body and adjacent surfaces. This clearance is essential to compensate for vibrations emitted by the appliance.
• Location of the connection ports. To connect the drain and inlet hoses, you'll need some space behind the machine. Considering the diameter of the pipes, you'll need 5-6 centimeters of clearance;
• Door width. When purchasing a non-standard washing machine, consider whether it will fit through the doorway;
• The dimensions of the furniture and appliances adjacent to the washing machine. If a built-in washing machine is required, its dimensions must completely match the designated area in the furniture where it will be installed.

If you take into account all the nuances, it will be difficult to make a mistake in choosing the right automatic machine. It is important to know the exact dimensions of the space intended for the washing machine, and remember to leave a few centimeters for gaps and indents.

Are Indesit machines big?

Depending on how the drum is loaded, there are front-loading and top-loading models. Each group is characterized by its own standard dimensions. Front-loading models are wider, while some top-loading models take up more space.

Front-loading machines have a loading door located on the front wall of the machine. When choosing this type of washing machine, keep in mind that you'll need space to open the door. Generally, all front-loading machines can be divided into four categories:

• full-size, the height of which varies from 85 to 90 cm, width from 60 to 85 cm. The depth of such models is 60 cm. On average, the maximum permissible weight of loaded laundry is 5-8 kg;
• Narrow, the W×D×H of these machines is 60, 35-40, 85 centimeters, respectively. The loading volume generally does not exceed 5 kg;
• Compact washing machines are 68 to 70 cm high, 47 to 60 cm wide, and 43 to 45 cm deep. These mini washing machines can hold 3 to 3.5 kg of dry laundry at a time;
• Built-in machines. Their height can range from 82 to 85 cm, and their depth from 54 to 60 cm. The width of the device is a standard 60 cm. The permissible weight is typically between 4.5 and 6 kg.

Front-loading washing machines are still more popular, which is why Indesit offers a wide selection of front-loading machines. The downside of these models is the need to bend over to fill the drum and remove washed items.

When purchasing a vertical rack, you should ensure that there is enough space above the equipment to open the lid.

Grouping vertical loading machines by size, we distinguish:

• Large-sized units, with a height of 85 to 100 centimeters. The width and depth of such machines are 40 and 60 cm, respectively. The standard drum capacity is between 5.5 and 7 kg;
• Standard washing machines. The W×D×H dimensions of typical models are 40×60×60-85 cm, respectively. They hold 4.5-6 kg of laundry per wash cycle.

The main advantage of Indesit vertical washers is the drum's dual-bearing design, which reduces vibration during operation. Also, despite their narrow size, they offer ample capacity, making them an excellent choice for small bathrooms. A drawback noted by users is the inability to use the top lid as a stand, as it must remain open to allow ventilation of the drum.

How heavy are these machines?

Standard Indesit washing machines weigh between 50 and 63 kg. Machine weight is usually a consideration when using intermediaries such as shipping companies. The heavier the machine, the higher the shipping cost. The machine's weight doesn't always depend on its size.

This parameter is primarily influenced by the weight of the drum and counterweight units. The smaller the washing machine, the heavier the counterweight needed to effectively dampen vibrations. That's why compact washing machines weigh almost the same as full-size machines. The greater the mass of the equipment, the better the stability of the unit, and, consequently, the device vibrates and “jumps” less during operation.
