Reviews of the Beko WKB 61031 PTMA washing machine

Among the most popular washing machines released recently, you will definitely find the Beko WKB 61031 PTMA washing machine. Why buyers liked it so much may be the low price. The price for this model is really low, but we don't think that's the only reason. Let the owners of these washing machines themselves talk about their “home assistants”, maybe their opinions will shape ours.

Positive

Before buying the washing machine, I cheated a little and looked at the sales statistics for the last three months in a large household appliances store. A friend helped me get this information. At that time, this washing machine was the most disassembled, and, as you know, it is difficult to deceive people. It is possible to deceive individual buyers, but a large group of people often makes the right choice. So I decided to buy washing equipment from Beko.

I’ll say right away that those who dream of buying a super washing machine can forget about Beko, since this machine is the most ordinary. Even if you take a superficial look at its technical characteristics, it becomes obvious that we are dealing with the most ordinary “home assistant”.

1. Washing machine loading – 6 kg.
2. Spin at a maximum speed of about 1000 rpm.
3. Electronic control, there is a display.
4. There are 11 washing programs in the arsenal.
5. There is protection against children, imbalance and overflow.
6. Accelerated washing and delayed start up to a maximum of 19 hours are available.

From my point of view, the automatic washing machine already had such an assembly in the mid-2000s, so there is nothing to brag about. Basically, I don’t need to brag to anyone, I just need a good machine to do my laundry. If you think the same, this model will suit you.If you are looking for something special, pay attention to higher cost washing machines.

The washing machine has been in the service of my family for a year and a half and it has never let us down. Once a power surge almost disabled the machine, I had to buy stabilizer for washing machine and dishwashers, so that in the event of a second surge, the equipment is better protected. Since then everything has been fine. The drum is voluminous and includes jackets, rugs and blankets. It washes normally, without any problems. My wife likes its appearance, and I would say that it is rustic, but for the money I don’t see any flaws. I recommend for purchase.

The old machine did not wash jackets, apparently outerwear was too heavy for it. This machine “takes” large things easily. Unless, of course, you push them all at once.

I think the main advantages of this washing machine are the controls and the set of programs. There are programs simply created for me, as if the engineers who created the washing machine listened to my opinion. The only complaint is the lack of a shoe washing program, but this is really a minor thing. I'll give the machine a five plus!

For 12 years I used a Bosch washing machine, imported from Europe. She worked there for five years and I have 12 years, so the washing machine is 17 years old, but she doesn’t care. If it weren’t for the appearance that had deteriorated over so many years, I would never have written off the washing machine for the dacha. My wife and I bought a replacement – ​​a Beko washing machine. So far we like everything, in six months she hasn’t created any problems for us. It washes more quietly than our Bosch, and the drum holds more dirty laundry. The display, which shows the progress of the program, is also a definite plus. We like!

An excellent model, many programs, a choice of spin speeds, and besides, it has a compact body, so I managed to fit the machine into a small bathroom. I was very pleased with the “Soak” mode, which I use all the time, especially when I have to wash children’s clothes. The child protection is also reliable and has repelled all the attempts of my little ones. I'm happy with the purchase, I hope it will work for a long time.

This washing machine is gray and miserable, there are no advantages in it, only disadvantages. This was the first impression and, unfortunately, after a year of use it has not changed.

• The machine has a rather poor washing quality. Very often you have to pre-wash things so that the machine can wash them.
• The display is large and looks impressive until you turn it on. The information displayed on it is very poor.
• There is no normal notification about the end of the wash. They would have made some kind of loud sound signal.
• There is no function that would allow you to wash clothes in a large amount of water, we are crazy about this saving.
• The extra rinse does not turn on immediately; you have to start it separately, which is inconvenient.

The conclusion is that the washing machine, although not expensive, is completely useless. It's better to spend a little more money on a more decent machine. I'll give it one out of five!

She only worked for two months. Now I can’t start any washing mode. The indicators are on, the display shows the start of the wash, but the wash does not actually start. The machine does not pour water, and the drum spins once and then stops. I tried to read on the Internet about breakdowns with such symptoms.It says that the machine should give an error with one code or another, but my Beko does not give any errors. I don’t know what to do, it looks like I need to call a specialist, there is no other way out. Bad washer!

Anna, Novosibirsk

There is an awful lot of noise from this washing machine. I have a small child who is terribly afraid of the washing machine. Before washing, I have to take the baby to her grandmother, since she lives two floors above. And well, it would only be a matter of noise, the quality of washing is also unsatisfactory. Snow-white bedding turned gray after five washes. I decided to sell the washing machine because I can no longer use it, my patience has run out!

I tried to wash my sneakers, but the washing machine ruined them. In the old machine I washed the same sneakers without any problems.

Marta, Moscow

Low quality machine. I had to verify this the hard way. In six months there were two serious breakdowns, the repair budget was $100, despite the fact that I bought the washing machine itself for 270 at a discount. Now I read negative reviews about her and think, why didn’t I look on the Internet earlier. I'll be smarter from now on.
