Asko Washing Machine Reviews

Reviews of Asko washing machines Steel washing machines from the Swedish brand ASKO are considered premium. It is the only manufacturer in Scandinavia. However, machines under this brand are assembled not only in Sweden but also in Slovenia. To find out what people are saying about this brand's washing machines, let's read Asko washing machine reviews.

Model WT6300

Ekaterina, Nizhny Novgorod

We bought this top-loading machine during a New Year's special. The salesperson was full of praise, and we were hooked. At first, the machine washed perfectly. But then problems started to appear:

When using the delicate wash cycle, the washing machine freezes during the rinse phase. We solve the problem by turning the machine off. Then, we turn on the spin cycle, rinse cycle, and spin cycle again.
The programs in the firmware are saved incorrectly; when selecting one program, another one starts;
the door does not open during washing, as promised by the manufacturer;
It is extremely difficult to clean the compartment for powder and conditioner, which is why mold forms

I can't recommend such a car, but maybe that's what we got. Be careful.

I bought an Asko washing machine in 2007 and sent it in for repair twice while it was still under warranty. The third time the car broke down completely, they refused to repair it and replaced it with a new one. The new machine wasn't as good as the old one, constantly freezing. After the warranty expired, it broke down, choosing programs randomly or not responding at all. Most likely, the weak point of this model of washing machine is the electronic module.

Model W6444W

Alexander Zakharov

My girlfriend and I have been living together for five years, so we'd long dreamed of buying a good washing machine. After searching online, I found ASKO washing machines. After studying all the specifications, I decided to skip the hassle and ordered the machine online. The staff treated me with respect and completed the order within the agreed-upon timeframe. The washing machine was undamaged during transportation; everything was in perfect condition.

The machine washes perfectly, and I'd like to point out that the price is reasonable. The quality is good. I want to express my gratitude to the sellers and the company as a whole!

I work as a construction worker on a team of 20 people. We live in a dormitory near the construction site, so laundry was a problem, especially when the hot water supply was interrupted. And frankly, I just didn't have the energy to do laundry after work. After a long meeting, we decided to pool our resources to buy a washing machine. We didn't have time to go to the store, so we ordered it online. The main factors in choosing it were the capacity, price, wash programs, delivery, and the warranty.

The Asko W 6444 washing machine met all my criteria. Now I have no problems with washing. And the warranty is a whopping two years, which is important. Kudos to the manufacturer.

Irina Dodchuk

I decided to use an online store to give my sister, who lives far away in Norilsk, a gift. I couldn't make it to her in person, but I really wanted to celebrate her 60th birthday, so I ordered a washing machine for her to be delivered to her home. An Asko consultant recommended an inexpensive model. Overall, the surprise was a success.

Thanks to the responsive and understanding staff, everything went as planned. My sister really liked the machine. It's quiet and holds 8 kg of laundry. It has an economy mode and a wool wash mode.

Model w6903

Vergo

My old Indesit machine broke down after 10 years. I decided to buy a new Miele washing machine. But after seeing it in the store, I lost interest because it was too bulky and had a confusing control panel. I started looking for another one and fell in love with an Asko machine, which I'd never heard of before, so I was making a risky purchase. I liked this washing machine's appearance the most. The control panel is in Russian, which is also convenient.

I paid attention to the spin - the maximum speed is 2000, although 1200 is enough, I even rarely choose 1500, since it spins perfectly anyway.

Asko w6903 It does have one drawback. The front part of the powder receptacle is made of metal, and after a year of use, the paint started peeling off because the powder couldn't be poured neatly. Under warranty, they replaced the powder receptacle for me, but after a year, the paint on the new tray also started peeling off. It's not clear why they didn't make it plastic.

I hesitated for a long time to buy a washing machine because I wanted to find a good, reasonably priced model without overpaying. So, I bought an Asko. The machine is fantastic, washes perfectly. The price-quality ratio is excellent. One caveat: you need to set the feet correctly during installation, otherwise vibration will occur. If you're considering buying one, pay attention to the height; it's not standard, being 3 cm higher. This is important if you plan to install it under a kitchen countertop.

Model W8844 XL W

Dudarenko Lyudmila

When buying a washing machine, I focused on its performance, as my old one was running low, even though I had no complaints about its washing performance. Ultimately, I chose the Asko, which has a large capacity and is economical in water and energy consumption. I was also pleased with the full leak protection and the ability to save the last selected program. The machine handles a large number of items of varying sizes well and dries clothes well. I haven't found any drawbacks yet.

Myatin Alexander

A fantastic machine with a 11 kg dry load capacity. Now you can wash blankets and comforters. It washes clothes perfectly, and has a wide range of programs. So far, I've only seen positives; I don't see any downsides.

German Julia

The Asko W8844 XL W washing machine is attractive and well-designed. It's also reliable and well-built. And it has a load capacity of a whopping 11 kg! It has a beautiful backlit display, a delayed start function, and many special programs—I won't go into detail.

We've been using it for six months now, and it works like a charm. I often run it on a 15-minute cycle, especially in the summer when I need to freshen up my clothes after just one wear. If you spin them on high, you can iron them straight away. I highly recommend it; you won't regret it.

Fedor Ushakov

We've been using the Asko washing machine for 10 months and are still happy with it. Here are its advantages:

high quality washing of clothes, even at a water temperature of 30⁰S, this is not unfounded, but in comparison with washing machine Hansa;
the loading volume is impressive – 11 kg;
makes virtually no noise when washing;
Great design.

Bobrova Yulia

I immediately liked the Asko machine's large drum and large loading hatch, very convenient. It has a wide range of programs. At 1400 rpm, the washing machine operates quietly and washes much better than the old machine. I like the reduced detergent consumption and improved rinsing quality. The laundry dries in two hours after spinning. That's why I give this machine the highest rating—5 stars.

Zaitseva Maria

The Asko washing machine is excellent. Unlike a Bosch machine, the motor is silent. Washing noise was the main purchasing criterion. The overall quality and build quality are beyond reproach. I'd say I'm completely satisfied with the machine. A few things could be overlooked. The price is a bit high, but it is a premium model, after all.

Shcherbakova Anna

This washing machine is ideal for a large family, thanks to its large load capacity (11 kg) and high spin speed (1400). We purchased the machine in 2014. The main reasons for purchasing it were:

assembled in Slovenia, not China;
design;
soundproofing;
number of programs;
capacity.

In short, it's worth the money. I give it 5 stars and recommend it to everyone.

Other models

Tatyana Berkutova

I've been using the Asko WT6320 washing machine for a little over two years and am 90% satisfied with it. What I like about it:

compactness, which allows you to save space in a tiny apartment;
spacious drum for 5 kg;
But don’t load the machine to the maximum, otherwise the drum will knock!
the presence of Easy logic technology, thanks to which items are weighed automatically, accordingly selecting the required program;
additional rinsing, for me, an allergy sufferer, this is especially important;
washes perfectly, everything is fresh;

Well, I already noted the downside: the drum knocking when fully loaded.

Irina

Our family acquired an ASKO W 6221 washing machine in 2004. At the time, it was inexpensive, about $180. Although Swedish, it's assembled in Russia. I was drawn to it because of its beautiful, unique design. The front of the machine is hidden behind a door.

There are 11 washing modes, but if you customize them, you can find several more. You can use the delayed start feature to delay the wash for 5 hours. The spin speed is only 800 rpm, but that's enough for me. The laundry is a bit damp, but it dries quickly. I don't understand the 2000 rpm settings on modern machines; it's scary to imagine what happens to the laundry at that speed. Overall, I recommend it to everyone; you won't regret it.

The renowned European brand ASKO offers quite a few washing machines. Different models perform differently, as users report. Most of the reviews we've read about these machines are positive. Apparently, the price is justified by the quality. Decide for yourself whether the price is worth it.

I bought a washing machine around 2002. I spent a long time researching it in Potrebitel magazine. I liked that it came with a 20-year warranty on every part. I bought it and haven't regretted it. It's worked reliably for 16 years. Now the motor has started overheating, which caused the belt to break. I'm considering getting a similar brand.
