Reviews of the washing machine Candy GC4 1051D-07

In recent years, real incomes of the population in the CIS countries have decreased significantly. In this regard, the sales of expensive models of washing machines also fell. Now potential buyers are increasingly paying attention to budget washing machines, one of which is the Candy GC4 1051D-07 washing machine. Let's try to find out more about it from owner reviews.

Positive opinions

Larisa, Moscow

In terms of operation, the machine is very, very reliable, although cheap. There are small mistakes and clumsiness that were made during assembly, for example, on my machine, with the powder receptacle open, it is impossible to open the hatch (it gets in the way). On the other hand, well, okay, as long as it washes, and the machine copes with this at 5+. The appearance of the washing machine is pleasant, the drum is spacious, and what else do you need?

I thought that the machine would be bad, because I bought it with the money left over from the repair. But for the third year now the “home assistant” has been working and at least she doesn’t care. It has everything you need, washes normally, rinsing and spinning are beyond praise, the controls are again simple. It seems to me that even my grandmother could easily master the machine.

It turns out that among cheap equipment there are cool examples.

Faina, St. Petersburg

This is how it turns out interesting, the most ordinary washing machine of the Bosch brand, well, sort of Bosch WLG 2416 MOE, costs approximately $370. But the most common washing machine from Kandy costs about $210. With all this, the characteristics of Bosch and Kandy are the same (if we take the mentioned models). My friend and I bought washing machines at the same time, she took Bosch, and I bought Kandy. I thought that I wouldn’t overpay 160 bucks, but whatever happens.

Eight months have passed and my washing machine is working great. The Bosch car, which was mercilessly exploited by a friend, had a broken engine. It could, of course, be a coincidence or a manufacturing defect, but it’s still significant.

The machine is used in a private house; it is located on the ground floor, where the boiler room and laundry room are. The only drawback is the loud noise during operation, but for the above reason this does not bother me. With a good powder, the washing quality is simply divine, spinning and rinsing are also flawless. The sound of the end of the program could be made louder, otherwise everything is fine. I consider it a great success that such a cheap machine works so well.

Oleg, Grozny

I am very pleased with the purchase. The machine has no flaws, performs its function well, and the price is simply ridiculous. The washing machine was assembled a little carelessly, this is immediately noticeable, but so far it has been six months without any breakdowns. If she works the same for at least a year and a half, she will recoup her money, and she can buy a new one.

Adalina, Moscow

Kandi was very picky about the new washing machine. After all, you will agree that the machine is too cheap, something is wrong here. Like a real pedant, I kept a special notebook in which I wrote various notes about the washing machine. Over the year, a lot of information has accumulated that allowed me to highlight its advantages and disadvantages. I'll start with the positives.

1. The machine is quite reliable. Of course, it is unlikely to work for 10 years, but it has enough safety margin for 3-5 years, and maybe more.
2. It perfectly washes both small items and large laundry. Some machines freeze when spinning large items; Kandi does not have this problem.
3. The washing machine is just “ugly” cheap, even strange.
4. The machine has 16 programs for all occasions.
5. The washing machine has very nice features that significantly improve the quality of washing and at the same time make the process easier. We are talking about automatic weighing of laundry, accelerated washing, additional rinsing and delaying the start of the program.

Now about the minuses, they are also present, how could it be otherwise.

• Firstly, the washer is assembled disgustingly: cracks, protrusions, bending plastic, plastic burrs inside the powder receptacle. These are just a few examples.
• Secondly, the quality of the plastic leaves much to be desired. When washing in hot water, the machine begins to smell noticeably of phenols.
• Thirdly, the washing machine makes a lot of noise during operation; in my opinion, it is record-breakingly noisy.
• Fourthly, there are minor problems with the spin cycle, or rather with its quality. In some cases, the laundry remains very damp, almost wet. These are the conclusions I made!

Anastasia, Moscow

I’ll be honest, I didn’t like this washing machine right away. I wanted to turn around and leave, because I didn’t have the money for more expensive equipment at that time. The seller turned out to be a true master of his craft and convinced me to stay and make a purchase. And you know, everything turned out without deception, the machine really does its job superbly.

I have to do laundry often, no less than five times a week, so my washing machine has gone through thick and thin with me. For a year of work there has not been a hint of problems, I am very happy!

Negative opinions

Yuri, Belgorod

It would be possible not to buy this machine, it’s a pity I didn’t know that it was so crooked.When we just started doing laundry, we were faced with the fact that the washing machine did not heat the water above 75 degrees, that is, the modes associated with boiling the laundry, which we sometimes used before, were initially unavailable. You cannot choose the temperature yourself; you choose from the options offered by the machine. The powder receptacle has to be pulled out with a jerk because it gets stuck somewhere. So you pull somehow awkwardly and tear off something unnecessary.

The problem that appeared a month ago “killed” my wife on the spot. She took a new set of bed linen out of the drum, washed for the first time, and it was covered in rusty stains. She was upset to the point of tears, and it was unpleasant for me too. It is not clear how the rust got into the tank; you need to call a technician. I bought a damn cheap car, saved the family budget, it was a shame to the point of tears! In retaliation to the manufacturer, I will at least write negative reviews.

Lydia, Izhevsk

We bought a refrigerator, a TV for the kitchen, a dishwasher, a microwave oven, an electric stove and a kettle at one large household appliance store. In general, we updated almost all the equipment in the kitchen. The sellers were breaking their heads, running after us, and their senior manager made us a personal offer for the purchase of so much equipment - a Kandy washing machine with a 50% discount. My husband liked the offer and, without listening to anyone, he paid an extra $80 and took the washing machine.

Well, what can I say, it would be better if he lost those 80 dollars in a casino, there would be less hemorrhoids. The washing machine is terribly wretched, although when they sold it to us, it didn’t seem that way. I couldn’t immediately pull out the powder receptacle. She tugged and tugged - to no avail. Then it turned out that a large plastic burr was preventing the powder receptacle from coming out, which had to be cut off with a knife.The machine washes too poorly, in general, I immediately gave a verdict - the machine is going to the dacha!

When the powder receptacle and the hatch door are opened simultaneously, they touch each other.

Oksana, Khabarovsk

Not a good washing machine, washes poorly, spins even worse, rumbles very loudly. I have to turn on the TV louder so that it screams at the washing machine. In short, let the one who made the machine himself and uses it, look, his conscience will wake up!
