German quality has long occupied a leading position in the global consumer market. Washing machines of the German assembly differ in reliability, durability and impeccable quality. The range of popular German manufacturers is replete with models with modern convenient features in a wide price range.
Dignity of German models
Washing machines from Germany, thanks to German build quality and precision, work very well and serve for quite a long time - 7-15 years.
They have a huge variety of washing modes and can handle almost all types of fabrics. Although a fairly high price affects the number of purchased devices, German-made washing machines are very common in Russia.
Before purchasing a washing machine made in Germany, you need to carefully analyze the models and choose the one that suits you best.
Difficulties in choosing
When choosing a washing machine, it is necessary to take into account the features of the room where it is planned to be installed. For a small bathroom, the best choice would be a washing machine from Germany with a narrow body or a low model that can be installed under the sink. And for a large family, it is preferable to choose a machine with a large tank, which can hold a lot of laundry in one cycle.
The prices for German-made washing machines on the market are not the lowest, but this is offset by the quality of washing and high reliability of equipment. In German models for high-quality washing of dirt, as well as saving resources, convenient high-tech solutions and minimal consumption of detergents are provided. This is achieved thanks to modern electronics that control all stages of washing, and a thoughtful design of the drums.
To save time, it is recommended to purchase a German-assembled washing machine with a dryer - this is an automatic washing and drying of any laundry at optimal settings. In such models, you can adjust the parameters of both washing and drying. For example, the "Pre-ironing" function is very convenient, which spreads the fibers on the fabric.
How is originality defined?
Any popular product is often counterfeited. Therefore, when choosing, consider the following nuances:
- presence of high-quality documents - the original German-assembled washing machine has a passport in Russian;
- price - a real German model cannot cost two or three times cheaperits market price;
- the presence of a certificate of quality - all foreign goods have mandatory certification;
- shopping space - pay attention to where exactly the purchase is made; it is much more likely to buy a fake not in a specialized supermarket, but in a dubious little basement-type shop.
Advice. Make a note of the serial number and model of the selected German-built washing machine and look up the necessary information on the manufacturer's web page. Using the site, you can very reliably determine by the model number whether this device is original or if it is an inexpensive fake of a well-known German brand.
Producers
The most famous German companies such as Bosch, Miele, AEG, Electrolux, Hansa, Siemens have long proved to be the best in the world.
The most elite and reliable brand is the company with the brand name Miele. The models of this company have a service life of up to 30 years, which no manufacturer can guarantee.
And machine manufacturers Bosch and Siemens produce models with an average price category, which are very popular with Russian consumers.
Unsurpassed German quality is embodied in models released by Hansa, and the unique structure of the drum takes care of gentle washing of linen and prevents damage.
Kuppersbusch, although it is one of the leading manufacturers of washing units, has not yet gained much popularity in Russia due to its relatively highpricing policy.
