Reviews of the Indesit IWSC 61051 washing machine

reviews of Indesit IWSC 61051The Indesit brand traditionally produces inexpensive washing machines. Some consumers are quite happy with them, but there are many opponents who claim that these washing machines are of very low quality, do not wash well and break quickly. Our craftsmen also encountered low-quality models of Indesit washing machines, but we will not generalize. This time, we drew attention to the Indesit IWSC 61051 washing machine, we will ask users to rate it.

Positive

Alexander, Krasnogorsk

For the price it's a great machine and quite reliable. In any case, I haven’t had any problems in 2.5 years. The first year I hardly used it, I was always on business trips, I got married a year and a half ago, and now we start the machine every two days. The main advantages of the washing machine: a drum into which you can stuff up to 6 kg of laundry and a spin speed of 1000 rpm. The quality of washing is average; previously I had to use machines that washed better.

The machine doesn’t rinse out the powder very well; we have to re-rinse it, especially when we wash the baby’s clothes.

It’s an inexpensive washing machine with a normal volume, which is actually why I bought it. You can adjust the spin speed, I usually set it to 800 rpm, but rarely set it to 1000 rpm. The water heating temperature is also regulated, which is also not bad, because many Indian women cannot regulate the temperature. The washing process is silent and you can barely hear it during the spin cycle. There are plenty of different programs, it’s easy to choose what you need depending on the type of fabric. Well, it looks pretty, I’ve been using it for ten months, no problems.

When I bought this machine 2 years ago, I was very surprised that the cost was low and the characteristics were good. In particular, it is spacious - 6 kg of laundry, normal spinning, and there are many programs. I honestly thought that the machine wouldn’t work for a long time, but to this day it washes well and doesn’t seem to break down. Let it continue to work, I'm happy.

We do a lot of laundry. In three years, I probably washed 20 tons of laundry, after all, there were four children. At the same time, the machine never even froze, which surprises me, because the old Electrolux periodically broke down. I honestly didn’t think that a cheap washing machine would be better than an expensive one in terms of quality, I guess there’s something I don’t understand in this life. Maybe I was just lucky. A very good washing machine, I now trust the Indesit brand! The advantages of our washing machine are as follows:

  • volumetric drum 6 kg;
  • convenient control;
  • a delightful range of washing modes;
  • good spin, which can be run at 1000 rpm if desired;
  • Eco Time function.

I took the machine because of the low price and because it was the right size, or rather depth. I like the controls, it’s easy and allows the owner to do a lot of things. With the same thermostat, if you need to wash in cold water, just put the handle in the “snowflake” position; if you need to bring the water almost to a boil, then set it to 90 degrees. The same thing with the spin, you can set it without a spin, or you can select the speed, up to 1000 rpm. I take good care of the machine, so there is no mold or dirt inside. Five points for quality!

Negative

Vladimir, Rostov-on-Don

After two months of use, this machine immediately developed a problem; it began to take a long time to fill up with water.When I started to look into the problem, it turned out that the intake valve was not opening well, so I had to replace it. Six months later, the washing machine refused to drain the water because the pump was covered.

After some more time, I changed the hatch locking device.

Now I can well conduct an educational program about Repairing malfunctions of the Indesit washing machine, do I need it? I would gladly buy not a construction set, but a normal washing machine. I wish the manufacturers of such equipment to wash clothes on such a machine all their lives, maybe then they will learn to think not only about their pockets, but also about people.

It makes a terrible noise, if you set the spin cycle to 1000 rpm, the furniture standing around the washing machine begins to “speak in different voices.” The quality of washing is average, but there have been incidents; a month ago the machine tore a new duvet cover. And I didn’t even understand how it happened. The wife is swearing, forcing her to sell the car, it looks like she’ll have to do it, but she hasn’t even worked for a year. So they saved money, took care of the family budget, and outsmarted themselves.

Ekaterina, Kyiv

At first we really liked the machine, it seemed to have simple controls, it washed well, and the load was large. The price is again low. However, six months later problems began. At first, during the spin cycle, the sound of iron on iron began to be heard. Then this knocking became constant, and recently the rotation of the drum has been accompanied by a terrible metallic clang. We called a repairman, and he told us that the bearings had failed, and we were faced with expensive repairs. Now my husband and I are thinking about what to do, it seems cheaper to change the machine. I am very disappointed, I am writing a negative review!
