Reviews of the LG F12B8QD5 washing machine

Don't believe that you can buy a washing machine with a 7 kg load for under $450? Pay attention to the standard LG F12B8QD5 direct drive washing machine. When this model first appeared, our experts did not even believe that such a sophisticated machine could cost so cheap, but the fact remains a fact. In search of a catch, we decided to turn to the reviews of the owners of such washing machines; maybe the users know some tricky secrets and will share them with us?

Positive opinions

Olesya, Kamen-on-Obi

I got myself this machine at a big discount when exchanging it for old equipment. For the ninth month now I have been happy when I do laundry. You can really stuff a lot of things into a 7 kg drum or wash something large. My old machine didn’t accept my husband’s down jacket, apparently too big for a 5 kg drum. The standard LG F12B8QD5 washing machine does not create such problems. I even tried wash the tent in the washing machine, the result is amazing, no matter how much I suffer with my hands. In short, five and three pluses for this washing machine.

I had been dreaming of such a washing machine for a long time, but I kept thinking that there wouldn’t be enough money. But then my friend and I accidentally went into a household appliances store, and I saw the LG F12B8QD5. She immediately caught my attention with the number seven on the lid of the detergent dispenser. And when I looked at the rest of the technical characteristics, and then at the price, all my doubts disappeared. I thought, this is the machine that I have been looking for for so long, and most importantly, I can afford it.

All expectations from the machine were met, the quality of washing and spinning is high, the programs work “like a Swiss watch”, everything is super!

When purchasing, I considered three washing machines: Bosch, Electrolux, LG. I bought the LG F12B8QD5 because at that time it was better than others in terms of price and quality. I'm glad that it has a half load and automatic weighing of laundry, which allows you to save water and electricity. The children's clothes mode was also very useful. I'm happy with the purchase.

Six months ago I was confused about buying a washing machine. Since I have very little knowledge of technology, I called a friend to help. We examined about a dozen washing machines, including this one. To be honest, I was more inclined to purchase a Bosch car, maybe the advertising had an effect on me, I don’t know, I wanted German quality. But a friend insisted on using an LG direct drive washing machine. I didn’t regret at all that we chose the LG F12B8QD5, the machine is just a dream.

• Protection from child interference.
• Direct drive, which increases the service life of the machine.
• Very spacious drum.
• Beautiful design.
• Very high quality rinsing and spinning at high speed.
• Many useful washing programs of different durations, you can easily choose what you need.

I won't use any other machine now. From now on I am a fan of LG technology.

I see some advantages in this washing machine.

• Firstly, the design is universal, suitable for any style of room decoration.
• Secondly, the load is 7 kg, you can wash what was previously dry-cleaned.
• Thirdly, noise, even when the drum rotates at 1200 rpm, the machine is not too loud.
• Fourthly, there are various functions like auto-weighing, which is also good, although I don’t understand why it’s all this.
• Well, fifthly, the washing machine is not expensive, in particular, I got it for $420.Draw conclusions.

When I bought the machine, I was amazed at how smooth the drum was inside. You run your hand along the inner surface and don’t feel any burrs anywhere. Another thing is my old Indesit 2296XW, which is now working at a dacha in the village. The inner surface of the drum is like the working surface of a grater, even when you chop vegetables in it. Well, where will the laundry spoil here?

I also liked the LG F12B8QD5 for its appearance and the presence of a screen on which you can see how the program is being executed. Of course, the main thing is the loading of the drum, as much as 7 kg, you can stuff it to your heart’s content. What I used to wash in two steps, I now wash in one. There are savings in time, water and electricity. There is also a delay start, which I also use with success.

Negative opinions

Valentina, Vladivostok

I used a Bosch washing machine for 14 years; for a little less than a year, the washing machine did not live up to its fifteenth birthday. When the master said that it could not be returned, I mourned the machine like a pet. Instead, I bought a standard LG F12B8QD5 washing machine and was very disappointed.

It seems like a modern “sophisticated” machine should be incredibly “cool”, but in fact it’s “zilch”.

My old Bosch washed better. LG leaves soap suds on clothes, even though it seems to rinse long and thoroughly. It makes a lot of noise when it wrings out, but you can put up with it, but why it makes a nasty bubbling sound when drawing water is unclear, Bosch didn’t do that. Among other things, after washing at high temperature, the drum begins to smell of burnt rubber.

Pavel, Verkhnyaya Pyshma

Terrible machine. During the spin cycle at 1200 rpm, it fell on its side, crushing several bubbles with liquid products.There was such a pogrom in the bathroom that it was simply terrifying. At least the inlet hose had not come off, then the neighbors below would have been flooded. Why did I buy this machine, because it was immediately clear that these “axes” are made in Russia, but they don’t do anything good here today.

Elena, Moscow

After the second wash on this machine, the hatch door broke. It just stopped closing. The master came only a week later. Even though I fixed the machine in 30 minutes, I’m still unhappy because I had to go without a washing machine for a whole week. Now a new problem has arisen - the display is glitching. The machine seems to be washing, everything is fine, but instead of useful information, dots and sticks of some kind are displayed on the display. I need to call a repairman again, I'm sick of this washing machine.
