Reviews of the washing machine Candy VITA G374TM-7
Not many consumers are interested in top-loading washing machines, and even those from Kandy. But it should be noted that in recent years their number has been growing steadily. This means that we need to take a closer look at these washing machines and find out what the owners think about them. The Candy VITA G374TM 7 washing machine is considered one of the most popular in this market segment. A very promising model in terms of technical characteristics, with a rather large load for vertical washing machines - seven kilograms. Let's ask about her in more detail.

This machine is not cheap and quite good quality. The loading hatch is located on top, which is convenient for me, since I did not intend to build the machine anywhere. The washing machine takes up little space, which is also good, since the bathroom is quite cramped. There was little noise during the wash, but during the spin cycle the walls were shaking. I had to buy anti-vibration stands, which really helped reduce the noise.
What pleased me most was the large and spacious drum. You can wash jackets, blankets, pillows and blankets in it without any problems. In general, I washed everything that the labels allowed me to wash, with a minimum of effort. Of all the top-loading machines, Kandy is almost the cheapest, and the quality and characteristics are better than many, I am satisfied.

I already thought that I would have to say goodbye to my dream, to somehow put an automatic washing machine in the bathroom. I have a rather cramped apartment, so I can’t put a washing machine either in the hallway or in the kitchen, and I really didn’t want to “smuggle” this kind of equipment into the living room.What if there is a leak or something similar, no, a washing machine in the living room is not an option. There was still a bathroom. There was a free corner there, but it was impossible to fit a front-loading machine there.
We looked at different models, even compact ones - nothing would fit.
Even though I didn’t want to, I had to pay attention to top-loading models. Kandy was the only one who had the money, so I bought it because it was exactly the right size. It turns out that I shouldn’t have wanted a vertical machine, “the machine is fire.” It washes perfectly, it hasn’t even malfunctioned once in a year, it doesn’t spoil the laundry, the load is seven kg, and the price is only $420. Oh, if I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have struggled so much with the search.

A very successful model, perhaps this machine is better than all my previous ones. It takes up little space, is not noisy, has parking and convenient touch controls. All the information I need is displayed on the screen. There seems to be only one drawback - nothing can be placed on top of the hatch cover. The machine has been working without breakdowns for the tenth month.

An excellent washing machine, I spent a long time trying to decide whether to buy it or not. I wanted to read reviews online, but at that time there were very few of them. I bought at my own peril and risk, because even the sellers could not say anything definite about this machine. Now, after a year and a half of operation, I can say with confidence: the machine is very worthy.
- Quite reliable in operation, in 1.5 years it has never broken down, hung up or chewed on laundry.
- It washes white and colored items very well. I had to wash jackets, mixed items, cotton, etc., always with excellent results. I use Tide and Ariel washing powders.
- Very roomy, lots of things included.I need the capacity to wash large items rather than large amounts of small laundry, but if you have a large family, then this technique will be a lifesaver.
- Takes up little space. It turns out that this machine is tall, but narrow and shallow. In addition, in front of a front-loading washing machine, be sure to leave some space in the front so that the hatch can open. You can simply stuff the vertical frame into the pantry, as I did, and be happy.
I have sewer and riser pipes in my pantry, so there were no problems with the connection.

After purchasing the machine, significant shortcomings were immediately discovered. Firstly, she is noisy to the point of madness, and even tries to jump. I, in my naivety, thought that top-loading washing machines were less noisy, but in fact this statement turned out to be a myth. Secondly, the machine does not pick up the powder from the tray. I sprinkle the powder according to the instructions, but washing still occurs without any product. After two weeks of use, I realized that the machine is bad, I will call a technician, maybe it’s a malfunction.

The machine is complete bullshit. Just one wash went well, after the second start the control panel and some electronics burned out. The technicians took her to the service center and for two months now there has been “no answer, no hello.” Now I am writing a complaint to the service center. I knew before that the Kandy company did not make reliable equipment, but I bought it anyway, chasing the low price. I'll try to exchange this machine as some other one and will be more careful in the future.
It's all nonsense. Works like clockwork for 2 years. Wash every other day. Much better than the vaunted AGE. Collapsed after 3 years.
After 11 months of operation, both hubs fell apart, and the balls fell out of the bearings. It's good that it was repaired under warranty. I don’t know how long it takes with new ones.
I've never seen a crappy machine. We bought Candy with a vertical loading capacity of 8 kg. The powder compartments are not washed out, and the fasteners that hold the lid on rust. It also creates puffs on clothes when washing! I wholeheartedly do not recommend buying this machine!
