Reviews of the washing machine Hansa WHB 838

If you are interested in technically outdated washing machines, you can pay attention to the Hansa WHB 838 washing machine. By purchasing this equipment, you can save a lot of money, but is it really worth spending money on it? A quick glance at the technical characteristics of this machine allows us to conclude that this model is at least 10 years old. It was 10 years ago that such characteristics were still relevant. Let's turn to the opinions of users, perhaps they will tell us something useful.

Men's opinions

Andrey, Moscow

I decided to buy this washing machine for my dacha a year ago. As a result, I brought it home from the dacha, since our old Korean-made washing machine was covered with a copper basin. Hansa turned out to be strong, quiet, and it does laundry really better than an expensive machine. I didn’t think that a washing machine for 180 bucks would be cooler than equipment for 450 bucks. What's in it?

1. Five-kilogram drum, with an actual load of 4.5 kg.

I tried to load 5 kg of laundry, but it doesn’t wash that amount well, 4.5 is just right.

2. Spin at speeds up to 800 rpm. Although the low speed squeezes out quite well.
3. There is no child protection, but there is foam control and imbalance protection. A couple of times these gadgets came in handy, especially when my wife confused the washing powder with the hand washing powder and foam came out of all the cracks.
4. There are only 8 programs, but they are well chosen. I’m especially pleased with the super rinse, which goes quickly and has the same effect as a double rinse.
5. There is a program for washing underwear. Her wife respects her very much.

I can also add that Hansa works quietly and does not wobble during the spin cycle.All my previous washing machines wobbled a lot and made much more noise. In short, it’s a great machine, we’ll definitely use it for a couple more years.

This machine has few advantages, but the low cost attracted me. It is easy to operate, because there is nothing in it except eight primitive washing programs. There is not even pre-soaking, so you first have to keep the laundry in the basin for some time and then put it in the machine. This is my second week of using the car, so far my impressions are negative. I used to have a Samsung washing machine, which I bought 13 years ago, and it even had more useful functions. I don't recommend it!

Stepan, Irkutsk

Quite a normal machine. I read negative reviews about it, they say that it is ancient, all modern washing machines have outdone it long ago. Maybe so, but for such little money, try to find a cooler washing machine. In my opinion, it is of good quality, it performs its function well, and nothing else is needed. Five points!

Sergey, Bryansk

This washer has been running for two years now, it works fine, it washes as it should. My wife is quite happy, it turned out that I didn’t need to save a lot of money for a typewriter, I bought a cheap one and be happy. The assembly is normal, it does not break. You can take it!

Evgeniy, Ivanovo

I took this junk from my new apartment. The owner sold it along with furniture and other junk. I sold most of the things or took them to a landfill, but I kept the Hansa WHB 838 machine, because it is completely new. The general impression is that it's cheap. It does a good job of washing, but other than that, it’s a terrible sight. I understand that you don’t look a gift horse in the mouth, I’ll take her to her relatives in the village, they’ll be happy.

Yuri, Serpukhov

This machine broke down on the third day after purchase. A specialist from the service center said that the power supply to the electronic module was broken, most likely something with the wiring.I'm a fool and saved money. My wife is nagging me now, and it’s completely unknown when the washing machine will be repaired. I am extremely dissatisfied with the purchase.

Women's opinions

Ksenia, Novosibirsk

A machine with a very reasonable price. They also gave my husband and I a 20% discount just to pick it up. We needed a washing machine for a country house, and Hansa was just the right washing machine.

• It’s automatic, and that’s the main thing; I won’t use semi-automatics under any circumstances, even at the dacha.
• It fits up to 5 kg of things, which is more than enough for country laundry.
• It spins well, but the rinsing is so-so, so you have to turn on the super rinse.
• Works reliably, no extraneous sounds.

Even when the drum spins very quickly, no clanging or knocking is heard.

• Doesn't spoil things. Even after repeated washings, nasty pellets do not appear on the clothes, which I am very happy about.

Perhaps I have no complaints about washing, especially since I don’t demand much from a budget machine. I’m glad that it’s just there, my husband didn’t even want to take this one, it’s a dacha after all.

Elena, St. Petersburg

Affordable price, easy operation and unsurpassed washing quality. It is difficult to find a machine at this price that would wash better. You can object to me, like, there’s Indesit, which has a lot of cheap washing machines. So what? I had washing machine Indesit IWUB 4085, it’s impossible to imagine anything worse, it wasn’t washed at all and broke after a year. This one has been working for two years now and everything is fine, I’m happy with everything.

Ekaterina, Rostov-on-Don

Since my mother is not a buyer, I decided to help her choose an inexpensive washing machine. We settled on Hansa WHB 838. It is cheap and its characteristics are not the worst. The machine has been working fine for six months, there have been no breakdowns. I really like how the washing programs are selected.I give it the highest rating!

Larisa, Shakhty

Unfortunately, the washer did not live up to my expectations. It worked for a month and the control module burned out. Now I’m trying to get a free repair from the service, but they are still dragging their feet. I got the machine cheap, but what’s the point, because I didn’t have time to wash it properly. Don't look at the cheap ones, you should choose something else!
