DEXP washing machines from the DNS chain of stores: choose from the top 5 models

DEXP washing machines occupy a cozy niche of budget household appliances, but are still not well known to our consumers. We will find out where you can buy these washing machines, what is interesting about them and what models the brand represents.

Who is the manufacturer?

DEXP – automatic washing machines that can only be bought on the DNS network. Including in the company’s online store. The first products of the DEXP brand appeared on the Russian market in 2013. The country of origin is China.

DNS (DNS) is a company that owns a retail network for the sale of equipment – computer, digital and household. More than half a thousand cities of the Russian Federation are entangled in a “web” of 1400 stores. The headquarters of the network is based in Vladivostok.

Consumers are actively discussing the emergence of cheap washers from DNS. Some service masters even joke about this topic, for example: “The more de … and they sell, the more work“. Buyers are confused by the cheapness of washing machines, but it is logical to assume that the cost reduction is achieved not due to low quality – although this is not excluded, but due to the removal of unnecessary links in the “manufacturer-consumer” chain.

Overview of models and reviews

About two dozen models are presented under the brand name “Deksp”. Most of the washing machines from the CSN network belong to the lower price segment. The most expensive machine costs about 25 rubles. Let’s consider the most interesting models, find out what consumers say about them, and take into account the reviews of specialists.

WM-F610NSH/WW – economical

Full-size, free-standing, medium-capacity front-facing machine. It is easy to operate the device – the panel has a rotary knob and regular buttons. The tank, like all budget SMAs, is plastic. It is not as durable as steel, but devices with plastic tanks are quieter, and most importantly, they are cheaper. The machine has a timer. The maximum time for which you can postpone washing is 9 hours. This is not much, usually the timer is able to delay washing for 19–24 hours.

• Capacity: 6 kg.
• Drying: no.
• Water consumption: 48 liters per cycle.
• Spin speed: 1000 rpm.
• Number of programs: 16 pcs. (including delicate wash 20°C, synthetics, mixed fabrics 40°C and 60°C, cotton 60°C, 90°C and 20°C).
• Energy efficiency class: A++.
• Washing / spinning classes: A / C.
• Safety: partial leakage protection, child protection, imbalance and foam control.
• Noise level (wash/spin): 60/74 dB.
• Dimensions (WxDxH): 60x48x85 cm.
• Weight: 53 kg.

Pros:

• It has auto cleaning. The drum will always be in order – no smell, scale, etc.
• Removes contaminants well.
• Consumers write that this machine works quietly. True, judging by the level of decibels (60 dB when washing), it makes more noise than many.
• Economical water consumption.
• Does not vibrate when pressed.
• The drum is reminiscent of the “Samsung” – gently erases.

Cons:

• Within 2-3 weeks it smells very strongly – plastic, rubber.
• Incomprehensible instructions. It is difficult to figure out how long the wash cycles last on different programs. One of the users wrote even harsher – “the instruction is formal, completely useless.”
• In the cotton mode at 60 degrees, it erases as much as 272 minutes – this is too much.
• May hang. If the door is not closed tightly, it does not erase – this, of course, is not bad, but at least it squeaked – the user is indignant.

As you can see, this machine adequately represents the budget niche, having all the shortcomings inherent in devices of this class. The ill-conceived programs, primitive design, design flaws. The main advantage of this model is the price. This machine can wash, and that’s good.

A similar version is WM-F610DHE/WW. It costs a little more – 14 rubles. Unlike the previous CMA, it is equipped with a 499 cm display and has 2 programs.

WM-F712DSH/WB – Large Load

Full size SMA with side loading. A capacious tank allows you to easily wash large items – blankets, down jackets, pillows. The machine is equipped with a delayed start and a built-in display showing the details of the process.

• Washes quietly and spins well.
• Stylish design.

• The drum is collapsible. This simplifies bearing replacement should the need arise. This plus was especially appreciated by consumers who had to deal with the repair of SMAs with non-separable tanks.

Cons:

• There are complaints about the programs. But all the shortcomings are easy to correct – you can change the spin speed, temperature, and disable unnecessary functions.

Excellent washing at an affordable price is the main advantage of WM-F712DSH/WB. Why pay more if for 18 rubles you can buy a modern device that meets the needs of consumers. This version outperforms the previous CMA in design – it looks more presentable and relevant.

Users say that this washer is a copy of the Hans typewriter, but costs 10 rubles less than a model with similar parameters.

This machine, judging by the number of reviews, is one of the most popular in the DEXP line. Buyers are attracted by the low cost and luxurious set of programs. A good option for a small family or retirees.

WM-F914DGZ/GB – with steam and inverter motor

Firstly, there is steam treatment, thanks to which things are disinfected, wrinkles are smoothed out, an unpleasant smell disappears, and most importantly, drying is accelerated.

• Steam processing. Things after washing are soft, wrinkled and almost dry.

Nothing is known about the shortcomings of this washing machine – users have not left reviews. This is probably one of the last DEXP models. Against the background of other washers, this version looks extremely advantageous. The quiet operation of the inverter motor, steam treatment and moderate cost make this version the most attractive in the dexp line.

DEXP WD-F714DMA/WB – with dryer

Frontal SMA with push-button control and built-in display. There is no steam treatment here, but there is drying for 3,5 kg. There is a delayed start function – you can transfer the process to a convenient time. An audible signal notifies the user of the end of the cycle.

• There is a drum cleaning function.
• Dries clothes well.
• Erases qualitatively and does not jump on the spin cycle.

Cons:

• If you believe the characteristics, the creators did not provide protection against leaks. Check this point in the store. Not bad when the device provides at least partial protection.
• The first few washes lingered on the smell of plastic.
• Uninformative instruction. But you can figure it out by the icons on the control panel.
• Short connection hoses – it is better to immediately buy longer ones.
• On drying, the door noticeably heats up – there is a sticker that warns users about this.
• Increased electricity consumption – due to drying.

This is one of the cheapest washer dryers out there. It cannot be called perfect. The main problems described in the reviews are related specifically to drying – smell, heating, breakdowns, etc.

Error Codes

It is very convenient for the user when error codes are shown on the display. Looking at the instructions, you can easily decipher the code that glows on the display. For example, the following symbols may appear:

• UE – spin error;
• IE – water supply error;
• OE – incorrect water drain;
• EE – water is not heated;
• FE – water does not enter the drum;
• LE CE – the drum does not rotate;
• HE – failure of the motor sensor;
• PE – failure of the water level sensor.

But the developers of devices and instructions were not limited to deciphering the codes. For each error, additional information is given – the probable causes of the breakdown and recommendations for its elimination.

Conclusions

Summing up:

• You can buy CMA DEXP only in the DNS – in real and virtual stores of the company.
• There are no narrow models among the “Deksp”, the minimum depth for the presented machines is 46 cm.
• Along with cheap devices with elementary functionality, the DEXP line has quite modern washing machines – with an inverter motor.

Today, the concept of a brand is becoming more and more blurred – beautiful names often hide low-grade goods produced by nameless factories. What is gaining momentum, however, is a system in which retailers work directly with manufacturers, and DEXP washing appliances are a clear example of such a partnership. How successful he is, only time will tell.
