Upper class: 5 charged washing machines

The maximum of functions in a compact bottle is not a myth, but the most real reality, brought to life by South Korean engineers in the "narrow" washing machine LG F2H9HS2W.

The machine is designed for "registration" in small-sized housing, where it is difficult to allocate a piece of free space for its installation. Moreover, the model takes on board up to 7 kg of laundry in one approach. Inside the washing machine there is an inverter engine with direct drive, i.e. the drum of the device is located directly on the motor shaft. Due to the absence of extra links in the chain, the washing machine theoretically should last much longer than many "classmates".

The model implements 6 algorithms for the rotation of the drum, but not for the sake of the loss of the "prize sector", but for different types of fabrics and the degree of contamination of linen. Moreover, a good half of the modes in the programme part of the washing machine got hold of the additional function of processing things with TrueSteam steam. It is indispensable if there are small children in the house or, for example, allergic people. Steam completely dissolves detergent residues, eliminates bacteria and household sources of allergies.

The "dry" figures on the model indicate an average water consumption of about 33 liters per cycle and the consumption of 1.19 kWh of electricity when washing in the "Cotton" programme (60 °C). Detailed graphs of the energy "voracity" of the machine are drawn in a mobile application for a smartphone. Also, through it, you can diagnose the washing machine for the causes of malfunctions.

Reviews of the typewriter are dominated by positive reviews. However, it was not possible to do without the disadvantages of the model altogether. Noisy water intake and an overly sensitive touch panel, which reacts even to accidental touches with the floors of the robe, are classified as such. However, these shortcomings do not make special weather, because on all other fronts the washing machine was really a success.

A full—sized German with a body depth of 59 cm from a well—known player in the arena of household appliances — Siemens — is armed with the latest technology. At the same time, the model actually uses electronic decoration, providing the end user with an abundance of washing programs for any needs.

The brushless motor with inverter control iQdrive clearly hints at the model's belonging to the flagship unit of washing machines. The degree of energy efficiency of the motor is indicated by the highest score A +++ — according to the passport data, the electric power consumption of the machine is 217 kW / year. The washing machine becomes more "voracious" only in the accelerated SpeedPerfect mode, but it gives a solid gain in time, reducing the cycle duration by up to 65% of the standard.

The machine itself decides how much water and detergent to spend on the washing procedure. The intelligent i-Dos system determines the weight of the laundry to be washed, the level of its contamination and automatically "adjusts" the dosage of detergent along with fabric softener to the current conditions. A full container of liquid detergent is enough for about 15-20 Siemens WM 16W640 approaches to washing. For a standard cycle, the washing machine uses about 51 liters of water.

The inverter drive of the model sets the rotation rate of the wiveDrum drum at a speed of up to 1600 rpm. Thanks to the relief structure with asymmetric grips, it carefully treats even the most delicate types of fabric. There are 15 washing modes in the software arsenal of the machine. Among them is the accelerated programme "Super 15", which allows you to refresh things in just 15 minutes. The selection of the desired mode and flexible adjustment of parameters are made by tapping on the touch control panel. The cherry on the cake is the aquaStop system on guard against leaks, which significantly increases the safety of operation of the washing machine.

The washing machine of the Swedish breed Electrolux PerfectCare 800 EW8WR261B combines the charms of a washing and drying machine in one bottle of premium quality. An additional confirmation of the high status of the models from the PerfectCare collection is the IF Design 2018 award, awarded to the machines of the series for a bright visual panel and an ergonomic programmer.

In one sitting, the machine can cope with 10 kg of laundry when it comes to washing, and with 6 kg of things when it is planned to resort to the services of built-in drying. The maximum noise level from the operation of the washing machine rests on the "threshold" of 77 dB. And this is taking into account the high speed of rotation of the drum already during spin (1600 rpm). The key to low-noise washing is also a quiet and durable inverter drive in the heart of the "engine compartment" of the model, which, in addition, is notable for its wastefulness in terms of "energy efficiency".

At the initial stage of washing, the machine personally controls the degree of loading, the density of the fabric and the level of its contamination, on the basis of which the water temperature, the type and speed of rotation of the drum, as well as the duration of the cycle are selected. In the naming of branded washing systems, this function was named SensiCare. By the way, in the first 20 minutes of the cycle, the user has the right to load the laundry into the drum of the device. The command post of the typewriter control is represented by a rotary programme selection controller (14 pcs.) and a touch panel with a bright information display at the head of the table.

The real killer feature of Electrolux PerfectCare 800 EW8WR261B is the fragrance of clothes with FreshScent steam. Working in this mode, the model can refresh a portion of things lying on the shelf of the cabinet in just 15 minutes. without cranking the washing procedure. The "purebred" steam treatment system in the assets of the washing machine is called SteamCare. She is busy with the issues of eliminating unpleasant odours and smoothing out unruly folds on clothes. A separate honor to be mentioned is also bothered by the "Non-stop 60 min." mode (washing and drying of small loads), the Denim jeans washing programme and the wool washing mode approved by Woolmart.

The South Korean brand Samsung is actively promoting high technologies to the masses. A vivid confirmation of this is an advanced Pro—class washing machine with a hard-to-remember name WW10M86INOA.

The model is "dressed up" in an elegant white suit, the charm of which is emphasized by a dark blue door with an AddWash hatch for loading forgotten underwear. A functional control panel is also stretched along the upper side of the front panel of the machine. It includes both a traditional mechanical controller for selecting washing programs (14 pcs.) and new-fangled touch buttons with mini-displays neatly inscribed next door to display the parameters of the unit.

A weighty argument in favor of Samsung WW10M86INOA is a low—noise inverter motor with a long service life (no joke, the manufacturer kindly provides a 10-year warranty against breakdowns). Under the influence of a brushless motor, the Swirl+ drum is rotated, and its rear part and the working cavity can rotate in different directions. Thus, it is possible to significantly "pump" the washing efficiency.

In general, the model is good in all its guises without exception. Judge for yourself, here you have the illumination of the drum, and the automatic dosing system of the detergent / rinse aid Auto Optimal Wash, and the EcoBubble fine foam generator to combat stubborn stains on clothes, and a separate hygiene steam treatment programme Hygiene Steam. The list of advantages of the washing machine is truly inexhaustible. In pursuit of the advantages of the machine, a useful option for remote control and troubleshooting from a smartphone fills the piggy bank, for which you only need to connect the device to your home Wi-Fi network. With such introductions, Samsung's brainchild is destined to gain a firm foothold at the top of the hierarchy of household washing machines, if not for the sky-high price tag, which is why not every man in the street can afford the model.

It would seem that what can surprise a washing machine, even if it is fully charged? An abundance of washing programs, a built—in dryer — we have already gone through all this. But two drums for separate washing of incompatible things is really something new.

The washing and drying machine of the "two-storey" design from LG consists of a main machine for 10 kg and a mini-washing machine with a vertical loading capacity of 2 kg. As long as everyday things are washed in the main compartment, the mini-drum will cope with underwear "with a bang" or, for example, wash clothes in a delicate mode. On the face of a significant saving of time spent on household chores.

This miracle of technology is equipped with a direct-drive inverter motor. The motor "turns" the drum of the washing machine in six different ways to achieve the highest quality result — here everything rests on a given washing programme. In total, the machine provides the user with 14 modes to choose from, including a fully automatic programme. The double washer makes noise at 77 dB when pressing and only 55 dB when washing.

A separate plus in karma, the device receives for the functions of washing and refreshing with steam. Also, the model has everything worked out to the highest standard with appearance. What an informative touch panel is worth, inscribed directly into the swing door of the loading hatch. Instead, she is offered to resort to remote control and troubleshooting services from a smartphone, for which she will need to install the Smart TninQ mobile application on it. The "buns" at the washing machine are above the roof and you have to pay for them, because you can't call the price tag for the machine affordable.
