Today we will look at reviews of this particular washing machine in the hope of getting more truthful, detailed and comprehensive information about this technique.

Many modes and many buttons. The control panel is really overloaded with all sorts of individual buttons and indicators. There is a program switching knob and a display, so why confuse the user with all sorts of buttons. Well, that's okay, we'll get used to it. Why are there so many washing programs? I honestly tried to study them all and I can say with confidence that half of them can be safely thrown away, since they are of no use. The machine washes normally, although at this point there are no complaints, and the filter is also easy to remove. I give it three out of five!

The money they are asking for the machine is not great, but in terms of its characteristics it is very good. If you look at the body more closely, the cheap plastic “gives the machine away”, but this happens in every second model of different brands, even in expensive ones. The washing machine does not work loudly, besides this I found a dozen other advantages.
- Compact dimensions. Well, I can’t say that it is very compact; there are probably smaller washing machines. But compared to my old LG, it's really small.
- Not a bad display. This, of course, is not a smartphone screen, but it shows everything you need. The main thing is that you don’t have to guess how much time is left until the end of the wash.
- Lots of very useful programs.
Personally, I like three programs: daily wash, rinse and spin intensive, quick wash.
- The machine can be stopped directly with water in the tank.
- You can adjust the spin speed as needed to ensure the best results.
- The machine has an “Easy Ironing” function, which really works. In any case, after using it you don’t even need to turn on the steamer on the iron, things look very decent.
- The model uses “6th sense” technology. I don't know what use it is, but it's probably cool.
- If an imbalance occurs inside the drum, the machine stops working so that nothing breaks. This is called imbalance control.
- The machine has a capacious drum that can hold 6 kg of laundry; in addition, this drum can spin up to 1000 rpm during spinning, which allows you to spin clothes efficiently.
- And finally, I’ll say the hackneyed phrase that the machine washes perfectly. It really washes perfectly, provided that you select the appropriate program and add normal powder.
I have owned this washing machine for ten months now. I haven't found any serious downsides yet. I suspect that the manufacturer saved on materials and components when assembling the machine, but so far this has not affected the functionality of the device. So I'm happy, I recommend the machine to everyone!

The machine is worth the money. Everything in it is done the way my wife and I need it. During operation it does not make any dangerous noises, no clanging of metal on metal, no grinding or squeaking is heard. The bearings are all intact, the electronics are not glitchy. It washes fine. In six months, I cleaned the garbage filter once, and there was almost no dirt there. Test technique!
Sergey, Kemerovo
After spinning on the Whirlpool AWS 61012 washing machine, I tried to wring out the laundry by hand and it worked. This means that the machine does not spin well. After washing, traces of powder remain on clothes. I washed the jacket and after drying, white streaks became visible on it, nothing like this had ever been observed before. I showed the jacket to the specialists at the laundry, they said that such marks could have appeared either from poor rinsing or from low-quality powder. I rule out powder, which means it's a bad machine.

At first I really liked the machine. My wife washed mountains of things in it without straining too much. Four months later it broke down; repairs cost $60. The service center forces you to make repairs at its own expense, since a voltage drop resulting from damage to the washing machine motor is not a warranty case. I don’t know what to do, whether to agree and pay, or go to court.
They offered to rewind the burnt-out engine. But they charge almost $45 for rewinding and without any guarantee, it’s better to buy a new motor.
Evgeniy, Kostroma
This machine’s characteristics are “two heads higher” than our old washing machine, which also had mechanical controls and instructions in German. Whirlpool AWS 61012 is much quieter, washes almost silently and is slightly noisy during the spin cycle. She washes things - the highest class, only a hussar washerwoman can wash things with her hands, and only if she tries really hard. I also like her appearance. I pass by and involuntarily admire its shiny body and stylish control panel. Our old lady already had rusty streaks and holes in her body. I like Whirlpool and respect it!
Women's opinions
Lyubov, Naberezhnye Chelny
She let us down very badly washing machine LG F12B8WD8, broke down barely after the warranty period. Moreover, it broke down in such a way that it is more profitable to buy a new one by selling the old one for spare parts. We decided not to deal with LG on principle, we took the Whirlpool AWS 61012. Oh, what a cool machine.
- Firstly, it clearly washes better, at least compared to LG.
- Secondly, it makes almost no noise, even when you turn on the spin cycle at high speeds.
- Thirdly, it consumes less water and electricity, and the powder dissolves completely. I give five points to our Whirlpool and zero to LG.

Very, very, very good washing machine. I’m really grateful to the seller for dissuading me, a bad customer, from buying the Indesit washing machine. In general, I love saving. I try to buy everything on promotions and sales. And here I was seduced by the low price, I wanted to pick up Indesit, I had already started to register, but the seller, a kind soul, dissuaded me. No complaints on my part, the machine performs its function perfectly with four pluses!

I had to throw this equipment away after 1.5 years of use. She has very capricious electronics, the light blinked a couple of times during the wash, the machine froze and would not turn on again. The technician diagnosed a breakdown of the control module and something else. Now the washing machine sits in the garage collecting dust. I'm incredibly disappointed!
Yana, Penza
For a whole year I washed on this machine about 3 times a week, without overloading it too much. First, after 8 months, the lock on the hatch broke, and now the drain pump. At first it hummed a lot, but slowly drained the water, now it doesn’t drain at all, it just hums. Is it really time to repair again, how unlucky I am!
Valentina, Sevastopol
I don't really like the fancy control panel.There are a bunch of different buttons that children love to press, but whether there is a lock or not is unknown, I haven’t figured it out yet. The last time my grandchildren came to see me, I was just doing laundry. They pressed something on me there, and the machine stopped right in the water. My son had to drain the water, otherwise it would have been impossible to get the laundry. I will raise my granddaughters so that they don’t interfere with technology, and at the same time I will look for a child lock.

I bought a washing machine two years ago. No problems with her. It erases normally, starts quickly and has all the necessary programs, even more. I recommend to buy!
