Reviews of Candy washing machines
Washing machine Candy Holiday 104 F
Elena:
Great washing machine! We bought it 10 years ago. And it still works fine. They only repaired it once, and only for small things. I don’t remember what broke, but the repairs weren’t expensive.
It works like a clock! If you are in doubt or don’t know what to buy, I recommend CANDY! THIS IS A GREAT THING!!!

The washing machine is not worth the money you paid for it!
- Firstly, it doesn’t wash very well. Many stains cannot be washed off. Before it, the machine was not so sophisticated, but it washed better.
- There is no washing, not at 80 degrees, not at 70. After 90, it immediately goes to 60 degrees.
- Program crashes often occur. When the mode is set to 40 degrees, it sometimes heats up to 90 degrees. This happened more than once or twice. And such washing spoiled some things! Terrible wash!
- If you set the washing machine to 90 degrees, steam will appear. It comes from joints and holes. When I first noticed it, I was very scared (((( Steam is coming out of all the cracks! The whole bathroom is in it! And condensation is dripping from the ceiling!!!
Pros: The only advantage of this machine is its large tank.
Of the minuses: an abundance of steam when washing at 90 degrees, program failures. Poor quality of washing, no washing at 80 degrees.

I bought a washing machine in the summer of 2006. In St. Petersburg, in the Albatross household appliances store. It cost $130. And until this day it worked fine. In principle it's normal. She clearly spent her money with a reserve. Some electronics broke down there.They say that replacing a part is expensive, so now I want to buy a new Kandy. I haven't decided which one yet. I read the reviews and choose. I decided to leave my review.
Pros: long working life. Compact, simple controls, good washing quality.
Of the minuses: There is noise during the spin cycle and it rusts over time.
Washing machine Candy CTD 10762
Eugene:
We bought this machine because we also used Kandy before. And the previous machine was very worthy. In general, we got the impression that the manufacturer began to make worse washing machines when compared with those that it produced previously. Washing got worse. There are no cams in the drum. Previously, the quality of washing was better with them. I don’t feel the difference between 5 and 6 kilogram machines.
The machine we had before had a five-rinse setting. This option could be added to any program. If you need it. But here there is simply no such option. Although there were mechanics. And now electronic control. But before, I installed the laundry and minded my own business. And now you have to often run to the machine and add rinse, because without it, the laundry can smell too strongly of powder.
When spinning, the laundry wrinkles very much. So that it can be difficult to iron it out later. But there is a strange option “Aqua Plus”. She adds more water. I still don’t understand why it is needed. With it or without it, the quality of washing is the same. As a result, the machine was disappointing. The old one was much better. The display shows the time until the end of the wash, but does not show which stage of the wash is currently taking place.
Washing machine Candy GO4 107 DF
Antonina:
Hello! I want to write about my machine! I'll start with the purchase.You might be curious... Probably, some of you have already encountered temptations like a loan without interest and all that. As it turned out upon purchase, this is another scam! Without going into details, this entire percentage (which should not be included in an interest-free loan) has already been added to the purchase price in advance. We saw an advertisement that the loan was interest-free and decided to buy ourselves a washing machine. They came to the store with little money. As much as would be enough for the down payment.
We chose a washing machine based on quality, functionality and price. We decided to take Candy GO4 107 DF. The manufacturer is good. My mother has such a machine and my friends also have it. I took it already with experience, since I tried several machines at home. I didn't like Zanussi. Although she does not make noise or jerk, she could wash a small amount of laundry at a time. And the quality of washing is so-so. Electrolux in a rented apartment was also disappointing. If you throw a little more stuff into it, it starts to leak! And I didn’t wash my clothes at all! We tried to fix it ourselves, but it didn’t help.
There weren't many models of Candy washing machines in the store. We chatted with the seller and decided to take this particular model. And then we were informed that we need to pay extra for the guarantee!!!! A thousand a year!
This washing machine was assembled in Russia. And we decided to play it safe and took out a three-year guarantee right away. They also wrote it down to us on credit.
And when we went to apply for a loan, we were surprised at how long the line was. In order for them to give us a loan, we also had to purchase insurance for our health. And it turned out that they wanted to take the washing machine for 13 thousand rubles. They took it for 15 thousand rubles. And we paid as much as $70 for the warranty, insurance and commission.As it turns out, an interest-free loan does not include interest, but does include a commission. That is, you overpay anyway! But whether you call the overpayment interest, commission or cash, it doesn’t matter. The main thing is to rip off money!!! In total, we left there as much as $220!!!!!!
And finally, to Kandy’s washing machine itself. She suits me quite well. There are no difficulties or problems with programs in it. Everything is simple and clear. The instructions are also accessible without any cleverness. It washes a lot of laundry at once and does it efficiently. We washed the blanket, the blanket, the rugs, and the sneakers, everything washes fine. It also washes things perfectly and spins well. When I wash, I don’t even separate the laundry by color. When washed at less than 40 degrees, it does not fade, which means things will not stain. And even with her one minus, I loved her. The downside is that during the spin cycle she likes to jump and jump. But if you compare it with the machines that I have used, then it’s better to jump than to leak or wash poorly!
As long as none of the neighbors cursed, it means everything is ok))) And what I also like about it is that we move often. And once she even stayed in the garage for half a year. And then there were frosts and slush and rain! I thought that it would no longer work as before. But despite this and regular moving, she continues to do laundry just as well!
But the most unpleasant thing is that we are still paying the loan for it. And my friends have already bought themselves the same machine, but for only $130!!!! And even with a guarantee! True, for cash, not on credit. And we are still paying 22,000 for it!!!!
But the washing machine itself is good. I would rate it an A with a slight minus.
Pros: feels great after moving, can stand in the garage for half a year, washes well, can wash even large and heavy things: blankets, rugs, etc. So far it has never let me down!
Of the minuses: The hoses are a bit short and jump when doing push-ups. It really doesn't bother me that much)
Washing machine Candy CTH 1076
Evgenia:
I don’t have exactly the same washing machine, but a 107. This machine worked just fine for 4 years! There were no disputes! My husband worked in a household appliance service. There they advised me to buy it. It was collected in Spain. She has a vertical loading. They say that such machines are more reliable. It has many programs, modes and options. Very easy to operate. I often used an extra rinse. If you started washing, but forgot to put something in, you can pause and report what you forgot. It was possible to wash 5 kg of laundry at a time. The drum is voluminous. It washed perfectly even in cold water!
But after 4 years problems appeared. Then the control panel stops lighting. True, not for long, only during the spin cycle. But the spin did not end, as it started again and again. She cheated, changed the program or started a separate spin cycle. At first it helped. But then such tricks stopped solving the problem. She washed normally, but as soon as she got to rinsing, then problems arose.
And a couple of months ago it started turning off more often. In different modes, at different times, such glitches continued. And as it turned out, in our city there is not a single Kandy service at all. There are some craftsmen who try to repair it, but either there are no spare parts or everything takes a very long time. They called them, the craftsmen came, removed some kind of diagram and took them to their place. They said there were no faults with them.Something was changed. But the problem was not solved. In the end they said that the motor must have failed. And a new one will cost $90! And we still have to wait for it for several months. And there is no guarantee that this will solve the problem. And if you buy a motor and install it, you will still have to pay for it, even if the glitches do not stop!
We decided not to fix it. Now we are looking for a new washing machine. Washing by hand is very difficult. There is a small child in the family. Now we are looking not only for a good washing machine, but also one whose manufacturers have services in our city. And as it turned out, there are not many of them...
Pros: nice machine, really liked it!
Of the minuses: no one can fix it!

You won’t believe it! It’s been in service for 18 years. The repairs were done 2 times on my own.
I believe! She also worked for us for 18 years! Nowadays they don’t produce them, for a maximum of five years….
The Kandy machine has served me for 20 years! Allows you to add water, powder, and washes perfectly. I use it to the fullest extent. This is what this machine is like. I look at the reviews because I think that soon I may still have to buy a new one.
The Candy smart purchased in 2017 broke after the warranty expired (the bearing became noisy). The plastic tank is non-removable and cannot be repaired! Disposable!
We bought Kandy in 2015 after Ariston, which had served us faithfully for 13 years, broke down and the repairman said it needed to be replaced. And now, for the last 5 years, I have been remembering with a bad word those who assembled this monster. I have a two-phase day/night meter. And for many years now I have been setting my laundry after 11 pm. This was the case with Ariston. I put the laundry down, added the powder, set the timer and went to watch TV. The machine will start on its own and turn off when it has completed the entire wash cycle. Kandy was collected in Russia, it does not have such a function. I start the washing machine myself, but this is not the worst drawback.. It turns out that this washing machine cannot be left overnight, like the Ariston.
When I first, as usual in the morning, decided to throw out the laundry, it turned out that it had not been wrung out. I started the spin cycle separately and sat and waited. But he wasn't there. The machine stubbornly stopped without spinning. It didn't show any errors. I started reading the instructions. And it turns out that it has such a harmful feature. The machine can stop the cycle without spinning if the laundry in its drum is not decomposed. I would really like to put the smart guy who came up with this function next to my washing machine at night. So that he himself, like I with my own hands, would each time lay out the wet laundry in the drum. So that the spin cycle has already happened and you can go to bed. Because I have to go to work in the morning. The technician told me that this feature was created to protect the washing machine. But it seemed to me that when I bought a washing machine for 22,000 I could count on the fact that it would make my life easier and not complicate it. I think that after working out her position, she will soon break. And I will gladly throw this monster into the trash. And I will never buy a washing machine made in Russia again! India is better.
