Which washing machine is better: Indesit or Atlant?

Indesit and Atlant Today we decided to discuss in detail the uncomfortable question of our readers about which washing machine is better? In a normal situation, we try to avoid such questions, but very often people ask what is better: Indesit or Atlant? Let's try to compare these two brands, choosing its best representatives.

Most popular ATLANT

Atlant brand washing machines are distinguished by their low price and acceptable technical characteristics. They are often bought by families with low incomes, but exactly the same can be said about Indesit washing machines. What makes washing machines from the Belarusian manufacturer so special and can they compete with the world famous Italian brand?

Surely they can, otherwise Indesit washing machines would have long ago supplanted Atlant equipment. Right now, we cannot say offhand what makes the Atlant washing machines stand out, so we will first review them, and only then draw intermediate conclusions. In the process of studying the topic, we were able to identify the three most popular models of Atlant washing machines, which received a very high rating from users.

ATLANT 70C108

Why has the ATLANT 70C108 washing machine been the sales leader for several months in a row? Yes, because this model, despite the low price, has very good technical characteristics. First, let's pay attention to the "domestic helper" drum. It holds 7 kg of laundry. Secondly, let's look at modern electronic control. And thirdly, spinning, which can be carried out at speeds up to 1000 rpm.

Let's add here an impressive set of washing programs - 15 pieces, complete protection against the main risks in the form of leaks, imbalance or increased foaming, as well as fair efficiency. In one cycle, the machine spends about 47 liters of water. Additional functions include:

advanced self-diagnosis of faults;
system for removing residual water from the tank;
the ability to reload laundry after the start of the program;
LED indication.

How much does this completely modern and reliable model cost? Currently, you will have to pay $300 for it. Not so much for a machine with an increased drum load.

ATLANT 60С88

Slightly behind the ATLANT 70C108 in terms of sales is another excellent washing machine, the ATLANT 60C88. It can wash 6 kg of laundry in one cycle and spin it at speeds up to 800 rpm. At the same time, the memory of its control module contains as many as 23 washing programs. Not many middle-class washing machines can boast of such characteristics, and the ATLANT 60С88 belongs to the budget models, since it currently costs only $217.

The machine does not have a display, but users themselves say that this is not an obstacle to its normal operation. For one wash, the machine consumes about 50 liters of water and about 0.19 kW/h of electricity. Note that the machine has partial protection against water leaks and has sensors that monitor imbalance and foam formation. The loading hatch opens wide and you can delay the start of the program for up to 24 hours.

ATLANT 60C88 is equipped with a special anti-crease washing mode. Housewives note that after washing in this mode, things hardly wrinkle and it’s easy to iron them later, the main thing is not to dry them out.

ATLANT 50U88

This machine was created specifically for those who do not require a large drum load and who want to really save money. ATLANT 50U88 is capable of washing up to 5 kg of laundry, while spinning is carried out at speeds of up to 800 rpm. The body of this model is only 42 cm deep, so it is a narrow machine. The model operates quite quietly. During spinning at maximum speed, the model produces 68 dB, which is slightly below standard values.

Note that the machine has 23 washing programs, consumes 45 liters of water per cycle and can remove old stains using a special program. Additional functions include a delay start timer and a wool washing program. Like the previous model, the ATLANT 50U88 has a hatch that opens 180 degrees.

Most popular Indesit

Well, we have completed the review of Atlant machines, now in order to figure out which equipment is better than Atlant or Indesit, you need to carefully look at the most popular models of Indesit washing machines. In this case, it was difficult for us to identify the most popular models, but we think we coped with the task. We present our review for your consideration.

Indesit BWSE 61051

Washing machine with front loading up to 6 kg of dry laundry. The machine has a classic design; on the front panel you can see a large digital display. The body of the washing machine is narrow, only 43 cm. There are 16 different programs for washing. At the same time, in some modes the user can independently adjust the water heating temperature. Among the additional benefits, the manufacturer offers an odor elimination function.

The spin is not super fast, but 1000 rpm is enough to avoid damaging most fabrics.There is a minor drawback: the machine is noisy, producing 83 dB during the spin cycle. You can only count on partial protection against water leaks. The model costs $230.

Indesit BTW E71253 P

This top loading washing machine has a drum capacity of 7 kg of laundry. Oddly enough, it is very popular among consumers. This can be explained by the fact that at a low price, the machine has good characteristics. Judge for yourself, 14 modes of washing clothes, low noise level (77 dB) during spinning, which is 1200 rpm.

In this machine you can safely reload forgotten items during washing. As for protection, the manufacturer provided protection against leaks, but did not think through protection against children. Although a very small child will be able to open the lid at a height of almost 85 cm, and he won’t even be able to reach the buttons. Overall, a good washing machine for $396.

Indesit XWDA 751680X W

This washing machine is simply a housewife's dream; it is an order of magnitude better than the two previous models. Despite the cost, which is around $715, it can not only wash up to 7 kg of dry laundry, but also dry 5 kg of clothes.

It has a little less modes, but among 12 it has everything you need, even washing sportswear. And the spin can be called ultra-fast up to 1600 rpm. Like most Indesit front-facing cameras, it has partial protection against leaks and child protection. In terms of dimensions, it is full-size, since the depth of the case is 54 cm.

Indesit washing machines

Let's compare washing machines

We have learned a lot about the best models of Indesit and ATLANT clippers, now it’s time to figure out which one to choose. We will compare the best washing machines of two brands based on a combination of parameters:

price;
dimensions;
reliability;
loading;
noise level during operation;
repair cost.

Well, let's start with the cost. It is very difficult to compare models of different brands on this parameter, so we will speak in general. Indesit washing machines are widely represented in the budget and mid-price categories, while Atlant produces mainly budget equipment. Both brands can boast of good and cheap washing machines, so they are equal in this parameter.

Both Atlant and Indesit produce narrow and standard front-loading washing machines. However, Indesit also offers customers top-loading washing machines, while Atlant does not specialize in them.

The reliability level of Atlant washing machines is higher than that of Indesit washing machines, this is noticeable even in the warranty service. Most Indesit machines have a 1-year warranty, but Atlant provides a mandatory 5-year warranty on its equipment. Masters also note that Indesites break more often than Atlanteans. Although, of course, this is the subjective opinion of some masters. We were unable to make a more objective comparison for this parameter.

Now let’s compare machines based on drum loading. In this parameter, Indesit washing machines have an advantage. We compared models in the same price category and came to the conclusion that a number of machines of this brand have drums that can hold on average 1-2 kg of laundry more than Atlant machines. This is absolutely true.

But in terms of noise level, Indesit washing machines are completely inferior to Atlant washing machines. The latter are much quieter than their competitors; by the way, users also say this.

The average noise level during operation of Indesit equipment (during spinning) is 76 dB.Atlanta produces about 68 dB, so the difference is very noticeable.

When talking about the cost of repairs, we must keep in mind, first of all, the cost of spare parts for equipment from these brands. Since the work to replace parts will cost approximately the same. Since spare parts for Atlant machines are slightly cheaper than spare parts for Indesit machines, we can conclude that repairing washing machines of the latter is somewhat more expensive. Let us add here the well-founded statement that the Indesites break down more often than the Atlanteans, and we can easily confirm our conclusion.

So, the reader expects from us a conclusion about which washing machines are, in general, better. And apparently he will wait, since we were able to draw such a conclusion. Based on the totality of parameters, Atlant washing machines won by a small margin and we, frankly, are happy about this since these washing machines are produced in fraternal Belarus.
