Reviews of Rainbow washing machines

Reviews of Rainbow washing machinesThe simplest semi-automatic washing machine of the Rainbow brand attracts consumers with different income levels. Some people buy this equipment for home, and others for the dacha, because the cost of such a machine is relatively low. The machine has been produced for quite a long time, during which time a whole army of satisfied and dissatisfied users has appeared, who write various reviews on forums and selling sites. Let's take a look at some of these reviews.

Raduga CM5 White

Cat, St. Petersburg

Raduga is a legacy of the Soviet era. The controls are mechanical, the parts are clumsy, and the appearance is not at all presentable. However, this machine washes very well, and it does not require running water. At the dacha, this technique is the most adequate choice. I heated the water using a bucket and a boiler, poured it over the edge directly into the tank and it was ready to wash.

If necessary, the machine can be connected to the water supply.

For the money I'm happy with the car, but some of the shortcomings in it irritate me. Firstly, the hoses are not connected to it securely; if you don’t press them with clamps, they begin to leak, secondly, handles and other protruding plastic parts, which, by the way, are needed, break off. All that remains is to blame the Chinese manufacturer for saving on plastic. In my opinion, Raduga deserves a rating of 4.

Mag, Kaliningradrainbow cm5

This washing machine was spotted by my grandmother from a neighbor, after which she got the idea to buy the same one for herself. I searched several hardware stores and found a Raduga washing machine almost identical to my neighbor’s. I absolutely don’t understand what grandma found in it, because it’s just a plastic bucket with a hose. In my opinion, it is easier to wash in a regular bucket.

Grandma was happy for about 3 months, then the washing machine broke and problems with service repairs began. The craftsmen did their best to evade repair obligations, but in the end, we forced them to do their job. After the repair, the washing machine worked for another 4 days, after which the engine burned out. Somehow they returned the Rainbow to the seller, now the grandmother is mastering washing machine LG, We hope this automatic washing machine will work longer than its primitive predecessor.

Raduga SM 2 White

Alexander, Vladimir

Rainbow SM2I used this machine about 3 years ago during my bachelor days. The technology is not so-so, it washes normally. There is no spin, but it fits a lot of laundry, and the machine is small in size, I personally hid it in a small cabinet in the corner of the room, and took it out if necessary. I have only one comment about it - the washing tub is very fragile. I was careless enough to drop the machine on its side; it immediately cracked and began to leak. If the walls were made thicker and stronger, there would be no price for it.

Polina, Sevastopol

Raduga is a good choice for those who like simple washing equipment. It is very inexpensive, washes clothes well and is designed very primitively. No electronic controls or other bells and whistles, everything is as simple as orange. My mother really appreciates this car, although she also has an automatic. Mom claims that Raduga washes large items better, although I cannot confirm or refute her opinion. The fact is that she has been using this machine for 3 years, during which time it has worked properly without failures, my mother is very happy.

Princess SM 1

Alexey, Kaluga

The princess washing machine from the Raduga series attracted me with its price and blatant simplicity.At first I paid attention to the Raduga washing machines, but the Princess turned out to be much more compact, lighter and almost 16 dollars cheaper, so I settled on it. Now, in order to wash it, I put it on a chair directly in the bathtub, draw hot water from the tap and go ahead, you can wash the accumulated dirty laundry. I wash it like this:

  • First, I pour some hot water into the tank of the machine;
  • I put regular hand washing powder;

You can put washing powder for automatic machines, this will also work, because the Princess is an “omnivore”.

  • I put in pre-sorted items;Princess washing machine
  • I shake this thing with my hands and then leave it for 10 minutes;
  • then I add boiling water, add a little more powder and start the wash;
  • I take out the laundry, drain the soapy water and pour in clean cold water for rinsing;
  • I start the rinse, and then take out and wring out the things.

The lack of a centrifuge doesn't bother me. The washing machine is excellent for its budget, so I give it the highest rating.

Alina, Irkutsk

Last year I entered college and moved into a dorm. I live with two more village girls, enjoying the fruits of student life. We didn’t have a washing machine, and without it it was really bad. At first they wanted to pool together a used automatic car, but in the end they took the Princess SM1. The lack of spinning is annoying, but it takes up very little space, which is crucial for us. We take turns doing laundry, even if the hot water is turned off; in 6 months it has never failed. Big respect to the manufacturer.

In conclusion, we can say that people’s opinions about the Raduga and Princess washing machines (from the same series) are mostly positive. In any case, it works 100% for its $60 price (its average price), and you shouldn’t expect more from such a simple technique. Enjoy the shopping!
