front, vertical, small and roomy with water tank, under the sink – what kind of washing machines are not produced by manufacturers in the race for consumer interest! But there is a special type of SMA – wall structures. Our review includes all the models that are on the Russian market today – we will tell you everything we know about them. It is very interesting!
Who might be interested in a wall-mounted washing machine?
Here are a few options for cases in which a hanging automatic washing machine is useful:
- In an apartment for rent – it often makes no sense to buy a full-sized expensive car in such housing, but a small mounted washing machine will come in handy.
- In an apartment a la “studio”. When space is so limited that all household appliances cannot fit, the best option is a suspended structure: it won’t take up much space and won’t spoil the design of the room.
- As an additional technique. If you see that one SMA does not cope with the tasks, but change a good machine for a device with two drums impractical, you can supplement your typewriter with a wall-mounted option.
- For those who move frequently. Change apartments like gloves? In this case, a small machine for a couple of kilograms is what you need. It is easy to pack and transport to a new location.
What brands of wall machines are on the market?
Washing machine on the wall? Yes, nonsense, many will say. That’s why almost no one releases them. Perhaps the most technologically advanced corporation in South Korea took on the heavy burden of designing and manufacturing such equipment – Daewoo.
Probably, the developers of the most popular cars in the post-Soviet space decided: “What should we build a house for?” – and collected this miracle Yudo.
On the Russian market, you will find only 6 models – but this is a fairly wide range for such a curiosity. All models are made in different designs and colors.
Suspended automatic machine Daewoo – what is it?
This unit can only surprise the user with its design – its body resembles an astronaut’s spacesuit or an incomprehensible suitcase with a porthole from science fiction films. Characteristics, of course, are weaker than those of conventional devices:
- Spin speed. Suspended Daewoo can only squeeze at speeds of 700 or 800 rpm – it is not capable of more. This is not surprising – if the device accelerates more strongly, it will still fall off the wall.
- Drying. It would seem, where to shove drying here? But in one model, it still fit – and it’s wonderful: it hangs on its wall, washes, and also dries, miracles, and nothing more!
- Control. They are modern not only in design, but also in management – only electronics. In some versions, the buttons and the display are traditionally located on the body, and in some models, the control is placed directly on the hatch door – very stylish and convenient.
Advantages and disadvantages
The baby has many advantages:
- Very light. It usually weighs in the range of 16-20 kg, so it is not difficult to securely fasten the machine to the wall – sometimes kitchen cabinets weigh much more.
- Korean production. All crumbs are produced directly in the country of brand registration – South Korea, so there is no doubt about the quality.
- Roomy. Do you think that a drum holding up to 3 kg is not enough? Look at the machine itself – it itself is like a drum in size, so it can hold a lot in relation to the space it occupies.
- Economy – in most models, a confident energy efficiency class A. Saves not only space, but also electricity.
- star drum – in such a drum there are small holes, so the risk of hooks on things is minimal. A kind of analogue of a honeycomb drum.
- Very convenient detergent dispensers – made in the form of a spoon for a clear dosage and separated from each other to avoid mixing the powder (gel) with the conditioner.
- Noiselessness and the absence of vibrations are achieved by an inverter motor and special rubber gaskets.
Are there any downsides? If you delve into the ins and outs, omit the promises of marketers and take a sober look at things, then there are disadvantages:
- Few programs. Usually these are 6 main modes – do not overclock. But if you take a washing machine as an additional one, then this is enough.
- Requires site preparation. In order for the CMA to look harmonious in the interior, before hanging the washing machine on the wall, you need to hide all communications and drill reliable holes in the wall. By the way, not every wall is suitable either – you need to choose only a load-bearing wall, and a thin one will not work.
You may find useful information from the user on self-installation of the device:
- Difficult to get. On the Internet, you can find such models in DNS or M.Video, and offline you will have to work hard to find a store where such a design is available, to feel it and see with your own eyes whether such an SMA suits you or not.
- Installation of the machine requires skills and tools.
