Were test checks washing machines – high price washes no better
The washing machines were reflected in the Test well and, in particular, the Cleaning of the Laundry is concerned. Who wants to save, can safely buy a cheap model.
In the current Test, only seven machines in the efficiency class A+++ and a capacity of eight kilograms are located. It was not simply new models since the last Test. The good news is, the washing performance of all devices is consistently good. Even the cheapest device in the test field, the Gorenje WEI843PS, impressed during the Cleaning of the Laundry. All of the devices in the Test include loaders to the Front. Top loader in Germany are rather unusual. Models with two washing units for small and large wash load have not been tested, and also combination devices combine the washing machine and dryer in one housing, have remained outside.
Price Value Top Of The Range Model
At the top of the test with a good grade and a numeric grade of 1.6 equal to three machines landed. The cheaper device of the trio comes from Siemens. The world Cup 14G492 costs 715 euros. Also well the Beko WTV8744S cut. With a price of just 400 Euro, which is the cheapest Good. The only disadvantage is that During the Spin cycle it is loud.
Satisfying the Gorenje WEI843PS, which is to get from 320 Euro to is. But it has no reliable leakage protection, and was devalued therefore.
The end of the “+++”
In the Test devices of the efficiency class A+++ were. Three times a Plus is enough to, in the future, not five-plus characters will be awarded, will set up the whole System to March 2021 new. A+++ is in the future, slipping mostly to B. As sensible as this measure is, the consumer will have to rethink and wonder if you find suddenly not A device. It is also because both systems are up to September 2021, together in stores. Confusing: In a shelf can be the new B next to an old A+.
How long does a device last?
In addition to the purchase, you should take a look at the operating costs. They are calculated from the test for a period of ten years. In the case of the Gorenje 1025 Euro in addition to the purchase price of the 320 again. In other words, around three times the purchase price. Here, the unit of Miele greedy, it consumes only for 885 euros, electricity and water. It won’t be cheap however, because the Miele costs more than 1000 euros. This pays off only if the machine holds in fact for as long as it promises to be Miele.
Because this is the blind spot of calculation. The product testers in the model calculation, assuming that the devices are all the same age and no repairs need. In reality, the looks of course a bit different.
