People are divided into resolute and doubters. Representatives of the first group always know what to wear, what to eat, what appliances to buy. The life of the doubters is full of suffering: it is not possible to decide which TV or refrigerator to choose, for example.
However, now the home appliances market is so saturated with a variety of brands, models under the famous names of well-known companies, that it's time to get lost and the most determined person. The purpose of our article is to help people decide which washing machine to buy. Moreover, we will talk not so much about their technical characteristics, as about the manufacturers of this necessary subject of household appliances.
Classification of washing machines
Buyers at the time of choosing a washing machine are interested in two aspects:
- quality;
- cost.
And, since frankly bad quality of home appliances is not observed now, the cost comes first. Therefore, it is advisable to classify washing machines for home use after all at a price.
All the units presented on the market can be divided into three main classes:
- economy;
- average;
- elites.
The above groups of machines differ from each other in the number of basic( and additional) functions and longevity.
Economy class
This class includes products of well-known manufacturers:
- Indesit( Italy);
- Samsung( Korea);
- Ariston( Italy).
These companies specialize in the production of reliable products. Inexpensive Ariston( as well as Samsung and Indesit) - is not burdened by intellectual programs, but the basic functions perform flawlessly. Ariston, for example, is marked by the sign of WOOLWARK: this means that it is possible to load woolen things safely into the car of this brand. The quality and gentleness of the washing unit provides. It is thanks to two components: low cost and excellent quality - these brands have won a decent segment of the market and a lot of fans among consumers.
Now there is an increase in the quality of Samsung's products( which you can not say about Ariston and Indesit).The company is constantly improving its products. Washing machines automatic Samsung equipped with all the necessary functions, and, in addition, the manufacturer pleasantly impressed the customers with the technology "Silver Nano"( disinfection of washing).According to customer feedback, the percentage of serious failures that require intervention by the service center is very low. Another plus in the Samsung rating - in case of repair spare parts can be bought in Russia at any time.
Middle class
The middle class includes products of the leading companies - manufacturers of household appliances:
- ELECTROLUX( Sweden);
- BOSCH( Germany);
- CANDY( Italy);
- VIRPULE( USA).
Washing machines of this class, in addition to basic functions, also have a whole set of additional features. The service life of these brands is close to nine years.
In Russia, BOHS products are in great demand. However, this is not surprising: the quality of German products has always been excellent. In addition, the company produces several modifications of washing machines, differing from each other in overall dimensions, design and a set of functions. Therefore, each buyer can pick up the unit to your liking. The main positive features of the BOSCH products that attract the consumer are:
- efficiency;
- reliability;
- durability.
The latest models of washing machines from BOSCH are equipped with a special drum, the design of which ensures delicacy and high quality of washing. From this group it is better to buy a washing machine of BOSH or ELECTROLUX firms.
Premium class
The premium class includes the two most popular brands:
- AEG;
- Miele.
They are distinguished by reduced noise level, no vibration during the "spin" operation. The quality of assembly of elite products at enterprises is set at the highest level. Mielo machines are equipped with an original drum( the so-called "honeycomb").This know-how allows you to wash in a gentle mode: on the surface of the honeycombs, a thin water film forms, which protects the laundry from contact with the metal.
The cost of these machines is very high, so the demand for them is not high. For this reason, the service of elite brands is not very developed in Russia. However, if you decide to buy elite equipment, then you should know that it will not be necessary to the service center for a long time: the service life of the units of this class is estimated in tens of years.
The production areas of both companies are in Germany, in contrast, for example, from the BOSCH plants that are located in many countries.
Do not think that only companies AEG and Miele, produce elite products. They try to keep up with other manufacturers of washing machines. So, for example, the latest model of ELECTROLUXK company is "stuffed" with electronics no worse than elite samples. It was this company that first started talking machines in production.
Domestic manufacturers of washing machines
Do not offend inattentive and Russian manufacturers of washing machines. Production of domestic production traditionally loses foreign in some parameters. But, nevertheless, Russian washing machines can easily find their customers. We recommend buying a domestic-made washing machine for people who appreciate the simplicity of management and the convenience of servicing home appliances.
Among the Russian brands are known:
- Vyatka;
- Fairy;
- Evgo;
- Rolsen.
The name "Vyatka" is familiar to us for a very long time. Now the production under this brand is produced by the Vesta plant. It produces several modifications of washing machines: semiautomatic machines and machines, large and small.
To the local brands people from the habit also include the Belarusian "Atlant".This company is known to us since the times of the USSR.Its products are of good quality, it is readily bought by Russians. Firm Atlant produces washing machines from full-fledged machines to babies.
We told you not about all the existing firms - manufacturers of washing machines. There are many brands of machines, semiautomatic devices, arrived to us from Turkey or China. But it is better to choose a washing machine of the most famous and well-proven firms.
