Marking of Samsung washing machines: what it means, how to decipher it

The size of kitchens and bathrooms in many homes often leaves one wanting more. Therefore, you should buy large-sized equipment after choosing a place for it in advance. Knowing the sizes of washing machines will help in this difficult task. Only by carefully studying the standard and non-standard dimensions of the equipment can you be sure that the chosen option will fit perfectly into the prepared niche or opening.

The dimensions of automatic washing machines largely depend on the type of load and the volume of the drum. When these indicators change, the depth of the device usually changes. The width and standard height of the washing machine most often remain unchanged. However, some manufacturers produce models that differ radically in their dimensions, which we will consider a little later.

Space layout

The dimensions of the washing machine require a lot of space, especially if you consider the size of kitchens in Khrushchev-era buildings.
You won't be able to create a beautiful countertop with old furniture. Nevertheless, designers agree that initially it is necessary to change the set and at the same time prepare a place for the irreplaceable assistant. Preparatory work should include several stages:

Using a pencil, a sheet of paper and an eraser, draw a rectangle on which to mark the dimensions of the kitchen space. Protrusions, niches and other features must be taken into account. Special graphical Internet applications can also be used for this purpose.
The plan should reflect the proposed location of all large items, including the freezer, refrigerator, hob and dishwasher.
Next, you need to choose the intended location for the washing machine, only here you should take into account how much usable space is already occupied.
All equipment and furniture must be shown on a plan with dimensions and location.

The dimensions of corner cabinets should be calculated carefully; even a 1 cm deviation will lead to additional costs. The dimensions indicated in the passport may be inaccurate, and the washing machine simply will not fit into the niche. These recommendations will also help you avoid mistakes at the planning stage:

The depth of the niche under the tabletop should be calculated with a margin. The optimal distance between the back wall of the household appliance and the wall is at least 10 cm. Space will be needed for installing filters and hoses. The front panel should not protrude; it is advisable to completely recess it into the niche by two or three centimeters.
The height of the washing machine can be adjusted using the legs, but if the calculations are incorrect, it may turn out that the legs themselves will have to be removed in order for the machine to fit into the niche, but this should not be the case.
The difference between the width of the niche and the width of the body should be at least 2 centimeters. This will prevent the countertop and the entire kitchen unit from swaying during spin cycles at high speeds, when the machine begins to vibrate strongly.
The niche itself should provide unobstructed access to the front of the machine. All necessary elements, including the powder cuvette, the garbage filter hatch and the water drain, should open without effort. All decorative strips should not interfere with the use of equipment.

How to install a non-built-in model of a washing machine under a countertop is discussed in the story:

Small units

This type of washing machine can be classified as a separate group, since it differs from the standard in size. An example is the Candy Aqua2D 1040-07 model.

Dimensions are 510x460x700. The machine is significantly lower than already accepted standards. The disadvantages of small-sized models are as follows:

high price,
The small size of the tank does not allow loading large items. Stowing laundry no more than 4 kg,
the inability to install a counterweight significantly reduces stability,
the dimensions of the tank do not make it possible to wash clothes with the same quality as in other automatic machines with similar characteristics,
a small assortment limits consumer choice.

Machines of this type are also called “washable”. The equipment looks like a small bedside table and is most often purchased for Khrushchev-era apartment buildings with a combined bathroom.

What types of Bosch washing machines are there?

The German company Bosch produces washing equipment with different functionality and appearance. Among the entire range, it is possible to choose a free-standing washing machine, built-in or narrow.

For Bosch front-loading machines, the standard height is 85 cm, width - 60 cm, depth - about 60-65 cm. Narrow models traditionally have a depth of 40-45 cm. At the same time, the drum holds a fairly large volume of laundry, despite the compactness of the body.

Bosch top-loading washing machines have different body dimensions. There is only one strict limitation on them - they cannot be made completely built-in due to the top loading. Most of them are 40x60x90 cm in size.

LG F2V5NG0W

Modern automatic machine with drying function and steam supply. The depth of the washing machine is 45 cm, and the machine is equipped with a spacious drum for 6 kg of laundry. LG F2V5NG0W provides high-quality care for things thanks to the support of several proprietary technologies.

The machine easily determines what type of fabric is loaded into the drum. This happens due to the innovative AI DD system, in the memory of which more than 20 thousand possible combinations of fabrics are recorded. Using this data, intelligence selects optimal washing parameters.

The main technical characteristics of the LG F2V5NG0W are as follows:

maximum load – 6 kg;
drying load – up to 4 kg;
energy efficiency class – “A”;
maximum spin speed – 1200 rpm;
14 special washing modes;
delayed start timer;
absolute protection against leaks.

The narrow automatic machine LG F2V5NG0W is equipped with a modern, reliable inverter motor.

Thanks to LG Smart ThinQ technology, the machine can be controlled remotely via a smartphone. It is also possible to run self-diagnosis of the device. Then the intellect will check all the internal components and give a conclusion about the condition of the washing machine.

The machine also has a bubble wash option. The water in the tank is saturated with oxygen, so things are washed much better. The cost of such a multifunctional model is approximately 35-39 thousand rubles.

Samsung WD70J5410AW

Another washer-dryer that, in addition to washing, offers to dry up to 5 kg of laundry using residual moisture technology. The advantage of this approach is the ability to set the level of permissible humidity, eliminating over-dried items and wasted energy consumption. This function indicates “advancement”, because the process involves two thermometers and Fuzzy Logic electronic control. Other technical characteristics are at an average level.

Capacity about 7 kg.
Eco Bable washing method.
Dual-mode drying.
Washing efficiency and power consumption classes at level A.
Abundant rinsing due to the increased volume of water consumed per cycle of 77 liters.
Partial protection of the housing from possible leaks.
Locking the control panel.
Control of drum imbalance and foam formation.
14 modes including delicate, economical, quick, double rinse, stain removal and soak.
Ability to set the end of the cycle.
Variation in water temperature.

Also available are audio, Smart Check and self-cleaning of the inner surface of the drum using Eco Drum Clean technology. Consumers note the convenience of regulating the number of required rinses in any mode, an intensive spin of 1400 rpm, additional protection on the door and a user-friendly interface. The disadvantages include a limited number of drying programs and an unreliably indicated depth with an error of 12.5 cm.

A wide range of direct drive washing machines from Samsung make it possible to choose a machine with the most suitable functionality. Especially if you are guided by the reviews given, which are based on real reviews and technical characteristics. The main thing is not to chase beautiful-sounding technologies, but to soberly evaluate the necessary and useless options and modes.

conclusions

When choosing a washing machine from the South Korean company Samsung, you should consider that:

the main parameters are the maximum weight of dry laundry, the spin speed of the drum and the dimensions of the device ;
Criteria such as the type of control and the presence of a delayed start timer also play an important role ;
For safe use, families with small children should purchase a model with a safety locking function;
devices with a large number of additional options are a little more expensive, but they are much more convenient to use.

Freestanding washing machines for built-in installations

Free-standing washing machines can also be built into a kitchen unit module or installed in the bathroom. The minimal range of built-in models forces us to look for other solutions. For example:

If there is no room in the kitchen for a standard 60 cm wide module for a built-in machine, build a free-standing compact model into a smaller module.
In order to save money, install a regular machine between the kitchen unit modules under a common countertop.
In a small combined bathroom or small bathroom, install a washing machine directly under a special shallow sink.
In a large bathroom, install a countertop sink, under which any free-standing model will fit well.

Small washing machines

Models with a depth of no more than 45–50 cm, and preferably 40 cm, are suitable for installation with a facade hanging. Otherwise, the convex parts of the front panel of the device will touch the cabinet door. There are especially compact machines with a depth of 33 cm. They can hold 4-5 kg of dry laundry.

Narrow washing machines (less than 59–60 cm wide) include top-loading appliances or miniature front-loading models. For example, the front Candy Aqua 135D2-07, having dimensions of 51x46x70 cm and a capacity of up to 3.5 kg of dry laundry, fits well into a small kitchen module with a width of 53–55 cm at any tabletop level.

For obvious reasons, a machine with vertical loading cannot be built in anywhere - its lid will not open because of the countertop.

Non-standard washing machines

A prominent representative of such devices is the Daewoo DWC-CV703S washing machine or its other modifications. Dimensions - 55x32.4x65 cm, looks like a round drum, without any buttons on the outside. Touch control. Holds up to 3 kg of dry laundry. Price – more than 30 thousand rubles.

The minimum height (65 cm) allows you to place it in a small module under any tabletop or even above it, because its depth is only 32.4 cm (in other modifications it is even smaller). But this is not the main advantage: it can not be built in, but hung on the wall. Thanks to its unusual appearance, which is completely different from a washing machine, it looks good both in the kitchen and in the hallway.

Installation under the bathroom sink

There are special sinks made of cast marble, for example, Aqua Symphony Solo Classic, which are designed to be built under free-standing washing machines. The sink has a small depth (about 8 cm) and dimensions 60x58 cm. Its contours exactly match the dimensions of the machine, creating the impression of a single whole. There are also smaller sinks for more compact machines.

The maximum depth of a washing machine for such a sink is 47 cm. Any height, since the sink is mounted on brackets. This option is great for combined bathrooms or small bathrooms.

Other types

Semi-automatic machines and activator-type machines (“Fairy”, “Snow White”, Renova, etc.) are not suitable for installation, since they all have vertical loading of laundry. It is impossible to find a front-loading semi-automatic machine in retail sales, except for outdated, illiquid models.

Advantages and disadvantages of small-sized equipment

It is rarely possible to fit a classic appliance into a furniture set. But there are no problems with small equipment. Such devices fit well into any environmental design and do not spoil the interior.

You can hide a narrow washing machine under the sink. This saves a lot of space in the room and also utilizes space that was never available. If the sink or dishwasher were not blocked by decorative cabinetry, the space underneath would be wasted.

The compactness of the devices is achieved through the use of a smaller drum. A smaller tank requires less detergent per wash.

But this advantage can be a big disadvantage. Narrow drums of washing machines are designed for an average of 3–3.5 kg of laundry. Although there are reinforced 5 kg models on sale, they also cannot cope with large items. It is almost impossible to wash a duvet or winter jacket.

Because they try to do this despite the warnings that the manufacturer necessarily includes in the manual, this method quickly fails. When overloaded, an imbalance occurs, vibration increases, and the load on the engine is even greater. The washer motor does not operate for long in this operating mode. Usually it is not enough until the end of the warranty period. But, having understood the cause of the breakdown, the repair shop will refuse to repair it for free.

Therefore, compact washing machines are suitable for single people, newlyweds or, finally, for a family with one child.

Speaking of advantages, it is worth noting the wide selection of narrow slots. The wealth of design and color options is amazing.

At the same time, manufacturers do not forget to support the necessary functionality and take care of savings. All devices operate in an economical mode for managing energy and water resources. Well-known brands don’t even raise prices for their products. The compact multifunctional appliance costs the same as a regular washing machine.

But in any case, the options were reduced. Because the dryer was removed from the device at a shallow depth. But this is not always considered a minus. There are many people who like to iron clothes that are not completely dry.

The most popular sizes of automatic washing machines

If a person is going to buy an automatic washing machine, then perhaps he will be concerned about the functional and dimensional features of various types of models. City apartments, built back in the Soviet period, are, let's say, compact in size, so the owners cannot help but be interested in the size of the washing machine.

Before buying a washing machine, you should decide where it will be located.

In principle, you can buy a large washing machine, but place it in the kitchen or hallway. Most models are standard. They are approximately the same size. But, if a person needs a washing machine for personal laundry or other similar purposes, then it is necessary to find a larger model. Such models will be able to wash a larger amount of laundry in one procedure. But, more people want to buy a washing machine specifically for use at home. In this case, it is necessary to proceed from the availability of free space in the apartment. And also on what washing programs are needed for the needs of the owners of the household appliance. Traditionally, the machine is usually placed in the bathroom. Experts advise considering this option as a priority.

The dimensions of washing machines can be measured using standard parameters:

Height;
Width;
Depth.

In most cases, the main parameter for choosing a machine is width. Also, in some cases, height matters, for example, when the owner of household appliances wants to install a washing machine under the sink or build a countertop above it. The dimensions and comfort of use in narrow rooms may also depend on the design of the machines.

In front-loading options, it should be ensured that there is some free space on the front side of the household appliance, since it is on this side that the machine has an opening door. Through it, dirty laundry is loaded into the drum, as well as items that have already been washed are removed. When using machines with horizontal loading, you will not need to worry at all about the availability of free space on the sides and front of the household appliance, because its hatch opens upward. This type of machine cannot be installed under a washbasin or under a countertop, because in this case there will be problems with opening the hatch and loading and unloading.

The size standard for front loading depends on the type of machine:

Width – 60-85 cm;
Height approximately 90 cm;
Depth – 32-60 cm.

The dimensions of models with vertical loading are standard - depth approximately 60 cm, height approximately 85 cm, width - 40-45 cm. Models weigh differently. Some modifications can reach a weight of 85 kg. The minimum weight of a household appliance is 50 kg. The majority of cars have an average weight of about 65 kg.

For installation under the sink

Installing the machine under the sink can significantly save space in the bathroom. Today you can easily choose a washing machine for almost any plumbing fixture. The depth of such machines is 44-51 cm, the width is selected for the sink - 50-60 cm, and the height can be only 54-60 cm.

For such minimalism you have to pay, literally and figuratively:

the price of non-standard cars is noticeably higher;
the small size of the loading opening will not allow you to put large things into it (blankets, jackets, etc.);
due to the small capacity of the tank, the quality of washing suffers;
the lack of a full counterweight reduces stability.

If possible, it is recommended to raise the sink higher so that a 70 cm high washing machine, which has the best technical characteristics, can be placed under it.

Criterias of choice

Load Type

According to the type of loading, all washing machines are divided into two types: frontal and horizontal. Let's look at the features of each type.

Front loading

Front loading washing machines are more popular. The tank cover of such devices is located on the front side. They can be easily installed directly under the sink, because there are no mechanisms on the top panel of the device - it is smooth and even. Also, front-facing machines can be built into furniture.

The only thing to consider during installation is the space to open the lid. The unit must be installed so that it is convenient to approach it, and nothing prevents the hatch from turning.

Vertical loading

Such washing machines cannot be installed under the sink: the tank lid is located on top, and accordingly the sink will interfere with its opening. But a vertical washing machine will fit perfectly into a free corner of the bathroom, a small space between objects installed in the bathroom.

In terms of functionality, machines with vertical loading are practically no different from machines with a front-mounted tank. But if you need a washing unit to be installed under the sink, then you should choose only front-facing models.

Size

Not all small washers are created equal. Their sizes may vary, so when choosing a model for a very limited space, you should carefully consider the size of the device.

Narrow

The narrow class includes washing units with a depth of no more than 45 cm. The depth of most small-sized models designed for installation under the sink is from 40 to 45 cm. The narrow class includes models with a front-loading type, since vertical appliances themselves are not so deep .

A low and narrow machine may have the following indicative parameters:

Super narrow

Approximate size parameters for super-narrow washing machines:

Top-loading machines are not super narrow; these dimensions only apply to front-loading appliances.

Functions

Functionality is one of the most important criteria by which to evaluate an automatic machine. After all, the more useful options it has, the easier it is to operate and care for your clothes.

Control. In modern models it is electronic. The buttons can be combined with a rotary switch. Some small devices do not have a display. The absence of a display does not affect the quality of work, but it is still more convenient when the machine displays the progress of the program, the remaining time and can show errors and malfunctions on the display. A set of programs. The number of washing programs in a mini machine can fully correspond to a full-size model. The average number of modes is 8-12. Any small automatic washing machine includes basic programs for washing cotton, synthetics, and delicate fabrics. There are also modes for soaking, spinning, and rinsing. Here the choice depends on personal needs. Additional functions. This parameter includes such useful features as child lock, leak protection, and drum imbalance control. A small-sized device may have certain additions, it all depends on the specific model

But the most important is the protective function against leaks, which will protect the apartment from flooding in the event of a breakdown. Economical. Today, all household appliances are divided into classes based on resource consumption. Classes are marked with letters: A, B, C and t

d. The most economical devices are marked A+++. The further the letter is from the beginning of the alphabet, the more energy and water the unit will consume.

Classes are marked with letters: A, B, C, etc. The most economical devices are marked A+++. The further the letter is from the beginning of the alphabet, the more energy and water the unit will consume.

Some home appliance companies or stores offer small washing machines complete with a sink. The option is very convenient: the sink is selected in such a way that it fits perfectly with the machine in all respects. For those who are planning a renovation and have not yet selected a sink for the bathroom, it is recommended to take a closer look at this particular set.

Tips for placement and operation

Non-standard narrow machines are suitable not only for those who do not have additional free space. The compact device is convenient for those who move a lot from place to place.

If the purchased device is built into a kit with a hinged door, then color and design are no longer important

List of useful tips:

Choosing a model with a removable lid will greatly simplify its installation both under the sink and in a furniture set.
For families with children, a lock on the control panel is required.
If the narrow model is adapted to a capacious weight, for easier loading, choose a device with a large hatch.
The counterweight of the device, the more stable it stays in place.
This is important for embedded technology. If the device body touches the walls during vibration, the entire headset will suffer.
Models without drive belts (direct drive) use an inverter motor. It is much more wear resistant than the manifold.

A compact free-standing washing machine saves space in the room and does not cause inconvenience.

It is quite difficult to get around a large standard unit in a small apartment without hitting it.

Top loading options

The dimensions of Samsung washing machines with vertical loading of laundry are 85-90 cm in height, 60 cm in depth and 40-45 cm in width.

The advantages of vertical washing machines over their frontal counterparts are:

Small sizes. They require much less free space since the hatch opens from the top. The quality of washing is not lost in small dimensions;
The ability to reload things during operation, since the lid is on top and can be opened without fear that water will spill out of the unit;
Safety from children - it is difficult for them to reach the control panel located at the top of the machine;
Convenience of working with the machine - no need to bend over when loading laundry, since all processes take place on top of the washing machine;

Lower noise level during operation, even during spinning;
Reliability.

High price;
Small assortment;
Lack of possibility of embedding into a set and other furniture;
You cannot place usual accessories on the machine.

Rating of Samsung washing machines

After the buyer has decided on a company, he immediately finds himself in the world of a wide range, numerous lines and series of units from this company. Over so many years of fruitful work, an innumerable number of new products have been released. The most popular nominees who received the maximum number of positive reviews were included in the rating.

Which washing machines are the most reliable?

There are several important criteria for choosing a Samsung washing machine:

Appearance, dimensions – narrow, full-size, ultra-narrow, compact;
Loading volume – narrow 4-7 kg, standard up to 7 kg, large up to 12 kg, mini up to 6 kg;
Technical characteristics - energy consumption class, power, functions;
Reliability – service life, protection system, build quality;
Price tag – price, its correspondence to quality.

The greatest demand today is for budget products that can clean laundry and wring it out, but they will not offer any innovations or new functions. If we consider more expensive options, these will be many programs, unique modes, extended service life, and a reliable protection system.

Top 3 narrow models

Models with shallow depths are characterized by minimal resource consumption and the ability to be installed in narrow niches and passages. However, narrow automatic machines have increased vibration and a small washing volume.

To choose the best model in this size range, it is worth comparing all the technical characteristics of the presented equipment . The most popular are:

WW70J42G03W

The machine fits into dimensions 60x45x85 cm and weighs 54 kg. The model is distinguished by front loading (7 kg), economical energy consumption (class A), low water consumption (42 liters).

Accommodation options

When choosing equipment for your home, it is very important to know its dimensions. A beautiful, powerful and inexpensive machine will suit you only if its size matches the finished space that you have freed up for it. This is also taken into account if you are going to build in equipment

This is also taken into account if you are going to build in equipment.

A modern model of automatic washing equipment can be installed:

in the kitchen;
in the bathroom;
in the corridor.

If you listen to the opinion of experts, they talk about installing the washing machine closer to the water supply. If you install such equipment in the hallway, since there is no space at all in the bathroom and kitchen, then long hoses will not only spoil the appearance, but will also interfere with moving around the apartment. Sooner or later, it will be possible to get caught on such an obstacle and, at best, earn yourself a bruise.

If we consider the option of installing the machine in the kitchen, then it needs to be built in next to the dishwasher, and its height in this case should be the same. A countertop is installed over the equipment, and the view is wonderful, and the equipment is attached, and the work will be done on time. The standard dimensions of an automatic washing machine may only be suitable for a large kitchen area.

In theory, the washing machine should be in the bathroom, and in many cases this is the case. If we consider the option where the bathroom is not combined with a toilet, then in such a room, in a standard apartment, there is very little space. Equipment must be strictly selected by size, and not by functional features.

If washing equipment will still be installed in such a bathroom, then you can choose a low one so that it is located under the sink. If there is enough space in the bathroom, and both a sink and a washing machine of normal height and width fit, then it is customary to make a countertop for it.

If a standard apartment has a combined bathroom, then there won’t be much space anyway. You might consider installing a top-loading washing machine.

The practicality of its use also depends on the type of machine. If you want to install a front-loading washing machine, then you need to always have free space in front of it. It is thanks to him that you can easily open the hatch of the “washing machine” at the right time. Through this hatch, dirty laundry is loaded into it, and after washing, clean laundry is taken out through it.

A machine with horizontal loading can stand close to any furniture; there is no need for free space either in front or behind the machine, since it opens upward. You cannot install this model in the bathroom under the sink, or in the kitchen under the countertop.

What does the weight of a washing machine matter?

The weight of the units is in the range of 30-100 kg, and the indicator cannot always be determined by size. The weight of the product affects not only the ease of transportation, but also the technical characteristics: the heavier the device, the less it vibrates from the rotation of the drum. The basis of the overall mass indicator is made up of balancing elements that add stability. These parts taken together must be several times greater in weight than the clothing or shoes being stored.

Heavy counterweights, in turn, prevent the washing machine from “walking” on the floor. Lightweight options up to 50 kg are built into headsets without fear of any damage. Cars weighing 50-70 kg are included in the middle category; they are usually placed separately from furniture. Devices weighing more than 70 kg are considered heavy. These have more spin speed options.

What to consider when choosing

To choose the right size washing machine, pay attention to the following factors:

Dimensions of the area for installation. Decide in advance on the location where the equipment will be installed. Take measurements of width, depth and height. You need to subtract 1 cm from the depth and width parameters to ensure a gap between the walls of the equipment and adjacent surfaces. This reserve is necessary to compensate for vibrations that may occur during washing and spinning.
Location of communications. To connect the hoses to the drain and water supply pipes, you will need free space behind the back wall of the device. Taking into account the diameter of the pipes, the indentation is approximately 4-6 cm.
The width of the doorway. A machine with a depth of more than 60 cm will not be able to fit through a standard doorway, especially when packaged, so the front panel of the unit will need to be dismantled.
Dimensions of adjacent equipment and furniture. If you are planning to purchase a built-in model, then the height of the washing machine and its depth should be selected taking into account the height and depth of the furniture that is already installed in the selected area.

If you are planning to purchase a washing machine to be placed under the countertop, the height and depth of the unit should be selected taking into account the height and depth of the furniture installed in the selected area

Dimensions of vertical washing machines

The dimensions of washing machines are not very diverse. The standard sizes of washing machines of this type are as follows:

height – 850 mm,
width – 400 mm,
depth – 600 mm.

There may be minor errors in measurements due to protruding elements. For example, the Indesit ITW D51052W has a height of 900 mm due to the raised panel for setting the washing modes.

Dimensions of narrow washing machines

Narrow devices with a depth of 40 to 50 cm are called. The maximum load of laundry is up to 5 kg.

They have no fewer operating modes than deeper models: for example, Gorenje WS 62SY2B with a depth of 44 cm has 16 washing programs and the function of storing the most used programs in memory. Model Gorenje MV62FZ12/S with the same depth of 44 cm - 18 programs and automatic determination of water temperature and wash duration.

Among the narrow ones, one can distinguish a group of small-sized machines with a loading weight of up to 3.5 kg - for example, Electrolux EWC1350, whose depth is 51 cm, width - 49.5 cm, and height 67 cm. The low loading weight here is due to the low height of the machine, which allows install it under the sink.

Depth of full-size models

Their depth starts from 45 cm and reaches 60. Such units are not in great demand due to limited space in apartments. However, they have a number of undeniable advantages:

Large load up to 10 kg, depending on the design features of certain manufacturers' products.
Spin stability.
Things of any size can be rinsed and washed well, thanks to the free circulation of water and washing solution through the thickness of the fabric.

Full-size options are quite common; an example is the Asko W6444 ALE model with a depth of 59 cm.

Asko W6444 ALE 1

Dimensions of front loading washing machines

Front-loading units are typically categorized along all three dimensions.

Standard width

of such washing machines is 59-60 cm.

Home machines that are wider are practically never found, but among professional models you can choose 70 cm units - for example, Miele PW 6080 Vario LP RU.

Smaller models can also be found in the Hausdorf store - for example, the compact Electrolux EWC1350 is only 49.5 cm wide.

Standard height

devices with horizontal loading - 85 ± 1 cm. This value was not chosen by chance: it is at this height of the tabletop that the least load on the hands and body is achieved for a person of average height who works at this table

Thus, the 85 cm high machine can be installed next to a table or other kitchen surface, which is important for free-standing devices

In our store there are also machines of non-standard height: 67 cm for Electrolux EWC1350, 89 cm for Smeg LBB14PB-2, made in retro design in the style of the 50s, and the already mentioned Miele PW 6080 Vario LP RU reaches a height of 102 cm.

Depth

Side-loading washing machines are one of their main parameters. Its value depends on the volume of the loading drum, that is, on the weight of the laundry loaded for one washing cycle. Based on depth, all devices are divided into narrow, standard and deep.

Which ones are considered narrow

Narrow front-loading washing machines appeared as an attempt to reduce the size of the device, minimizing the permissible weight of loaded laundry. At the same time, the dimensions of the machine were removed in the direction where this could be done as simply as possible - in depth. That is, the width and height of the device remained the same, and the drum, placed horizontally, became, as it were, flatter. And although its volume is reduced compared to full-size machines, it still amounts to the required 4 - 6 kg.

Washing machines whose depth does not exceed 40 cm are considered flat. Such a device easily fits into a narrow bathtub, behind the ledge of the wall, and does not block the passage. It will fit in the yard and in the kitchen, where it can be placed under a narrow countertop.

Some classifications distinguish “super-narrow” machines, the depth of which is 30 - 34 centimeters. These devices are record holders for compact design, but their functionality suffers greatly for the sake of size.

Built-in machines

Such washing machines are installed in the kitchen. Front-loading units are used for this purpose. Typical dimensions of built-in machines range from:

height – 74-84 cm;
width – 57-60 cm;
depth – 56-60 cm.

Manufacturers of household appliances and kitchen furniture coordinate their sizes among themselves. However, when choosing a machine model, you should take into account the gaps when installing on the top and sides.

There are washing machines that are installed under the countertop or are completely located in the kitchen unit. Structurally, they are very similar, but the machines of the second type have a recess on the back wall for the plinth.

Beko MVE 69512 ZAW

Another narrow, front-loading machine. The washing machine measures a standard 60 cm in width and 84 cm in height. The body depth is 42 cm. Users note that the Beko MVE 69512 ZAW copes well with dirt, carefully cares for laundry and operates almost silently.

For just 18-19 thousand rubles you can buy a machine with a luxurious set of programs. There are as many as 20 washing modes stored in the machine’s memory – this is enough to select the optimal cleaning parameters for any items and types of fabrics.

Basic technical characteristics of the model:

capacity - up to six kilograms of linen;
energy saving and washing efficiency class – “A”;
maximum spin speed – 1000 rpm;
delay start timer – for up to 19 hours;
maximum noise level – 77 dB.

The machine is quite economical, the electricity consumption declared by the manufacturer is 0.19 kWh/kg.

Among the special washing modes, the programs “Anti-allergy”, “Drum self-cleaning”, and “Economic” stand out. It is possible to lock the dashboard from children. Water consumption for a standard cycle is 45 liters.

How to choose

The washing machine market is quite conservative. There are clear leaders here, many of whom have been producing automatic washing devices for many years. Among them there are both players in the expensive segment (Bosch, Siemens) and companies whose products are moderately priced (Indesit, Beko)

The quality of devices produced by trusted manufacturers is almost consistently high, and the choice of a washing machine should be made taking into account a number of parameters

Maximum load weight of laundry

This characteristic is decisive for many buyers. A man living alone is unlikely to focus on a figure greater than 4.5 kg, but a family with children will have to look for a narrow option that allows them to load at least 6 kg of laundry.

The more voluminous the drum the machine contains, the denser the manufacturer arranges the units in order to fit everything needed into the space limited by standards. It is worth remembering that narrow machines have less weight compared to full-size ones, so they are less stable when spinning at high speeds.

Drum

All drums of modern washing machines are made of stainless steel.
They rotate inside the tank, spinning the laundry inside. On the side of the door, the drum of a front-loading washing machine has a large hole, and on the opposite side there is a shaft with a pulley and a stiffening cross. The drum also contains the necessary structural elements:

holes in the form of perforations - through them the drum is filled with a solution of washing powder;
strikers, that is, combs that help mix the laundry, and are also filled with solution in the lower position and release it to the upper position.

During washing, rinsing and spinning, fabrics are pressed quite hard into the holes, which leads to gradual wear and tear of clothes and bedding.

To minimize damage, manufacturers use various tricks:

The surface is made in the form of convex honeycombs. The honeycomb drum carefully takes on the pressure of the laundry and does not allow it to lose its performance characteristics.
The loopholes are bent, directing the flow of water in such a way that they better wash the laundry placed in the drum.
The inner area of the drum sidewall is made in the form of convex and concave edges. For example, Siemens called this technology Diamond Drum.
They reduce the size of the perforations while simultaneously increasing their number, which allows the fabric not to wrinkle or be pulled into the holes even at a spin pressure of 1200 rpm.
A drum is made with a surface textured in the form of drops or hemispheres. This design allows you to protect the laundry from damage and at the same time promote better mixing and friction against each other.
The strikers are formed asymmetrically: on one side they are almost straight, on the other they are flat, which gives an intense effect when twisted in one direction, and a delicate effect in the other.

Control Features

Depending on the specific design solution, the washing machine can be equipped with different types of controls:

Electromechanical. Presented in the form of a rotary wheel and buttons.
Sensory. The touch panel contains corresponding icons, and programs can be activated by touch.

Expert opinion Galina Valerievna Borodina

Some washing machines with a depth of up to 40 cm have a display that displays current information about the selected program, spin speed, and the time that the user can set manually. After launch there is a countdown. Simpler devices only have a light indication - LEDs glow opposite the selected programs.

The variety of washing programs is very large, but almost all units have modes for cotton, synthetics, gentle and express wash. The user can also select the spin speed, additional rinse, water temperature and other parameters.

What controls are on your washing machine?

It is possible to lock the dashboard while the machine is operating. The washer also prevents drum imbalance and excessive foaming. The cost of the model is only 18-19 thousand rubles.

Dimensions of front loading washing machines

Front-loading units are typically categorized along all three dimensions.

Standard width

of such washing machines is 59-60 cm.

Home machines that are wider are practically never found, but among professional models you can choose 70 cm units - for example, Miele PW 6080 Vario LP RU.

Smaller models can also be found in the Hausdorf store - for example, the compact Electrolux EWC1350 is only 49.5 cm wide.

The standard height of devices with horizontal loading is 85 ± 1 cm. This value was not chosen by chance: it is at this height of the table top that the least load on the hands and body is achieved for a person of average height who works at this table

Thus, the 85 cm high machine can be installed next to a table or other kitchen surface, which is important for free-standing devices

Depth

Width of washing machines and ways to place them

If the house does not have a separate laundry room, then the most convenient room for installing a washing machine is the bathroom. It creates optimal conditions for the functioning of this household appliance:

the necessary communications have been established;
walls and floors have a moisture-resistant coating;
The arrangement of the premises allows you to store detergents without harm to health.

Bathrooms are most often small in size, so such a parameter as the width of the washing machine is very important. In a small room, the unit will be located between pieces of plumbing or furniture, and it must not only fit, but occupy a position that allows free loading. It is advisable to leave a space of at least 70 cm in front of the machine.

Helpful advice! When determining the width of the machine for a limited space, it is necessary to take into account not only vibration clearances, but also access for cleaning the side surfaces.

The choice of the width of the washing machine will depend on the room and the place where it is planned to be installed

In conjunction with the width of the automatic machine, its depth is also considered, on which the size of the drum, and therefore the capacity, directly depends. Quite often you have to sacrifice the quantitative size of the load in order to accommodate the equipment. An acceptable option for small rooms are washing machines with a depth of 45 cm and a standard width of 60 cm.

To satisfy the needs of customers, modern industry produces washing machines with different widths.

Semi-automatic washing machines

For many, it will be a real discovery that this technique is still popular. But this is actually true. These models are bought for dachas and country houses that do not have a central water supply. The dimensions of this equipment do not have standards.

Washing machines of this type can be very spacious, for example, RENOVA WS50PT, it allows you to load 5 kg of laundry. There are also small sizes, for example, WILLMARK WM20A, which only fits 2 kg, and the dimensions are 320x320x450.

Both small-sized models and large-sized washing machines are non-standard. Most often, these devices include industrial equipment, which is designed for significant volumes - 14-18 kg.

An example is Girbau HS6017.

The dimensions of this equipment are 1404x868x962. And the drum volume allows you to load up to 17 kg. Such models are purchased by enterprises that are forced to constantly wash clothes in significant volumes - supermarkets, hotels, factories.

Among the equipment intended for household use, you can also find non-standard models, for example, Ariston AQXF129H. The height of the washing machine, where 6 kg can be placed in the tank, is 1050 mm, this is due to the container for dirty clothes, which is located at the bottom of the machine.

Another group of equipment that differs in standards from the main washing machines produced are automatic machines with a water tank. This technique can draw water from the tank itself if there is no main water supply. The range of these devices is not very diverse - the most popular are washing machines from Gorenje, for example, Gorenje W 72 ZX1/R.
