Description and selection of a wall-mounted washing machine

The wall-mounted washing machine is a new word in household appliances. First of all, it does not take up space in the bathroom or in the kitchen, as it is hung on the wall. Also, these models have a modern design and are very beautiful. Unusual placement and stylish appearance will become a real decoration of the room.

A novelty on the market is a wall-mounted washing machine that can solve the problems associated with washing clothes.

Why is a mounted washer convenient?

The main convenience of a wall-mounted washing machine is obvious - ease of installation. Due to the fact that such a washing machine is mounted on the wall, it practically does not take up space. The floor under it remains free, respectively, other appliances or furniture can be put here.

Wall-mounted household appliances are convenient, and many manufacturers probably thought about creating such washing machines.

Device placement options:

  • Over the toilet
  • Under the heated towel rail
  • Over the countertop in the kitchen
  • Above the bathroom

In addition, the machine itself is small and does not create additional interference when moving around the room. Another non-obvious advantage is that when the appliance door is open, it also does not interfere with the movement of people in the room. This is due, on the one hand, to its small size. On the other hand, the suspended character of the machine. That is, the door in the open state does not block the passage.

Daewoo is rightfully considered the market leader; it was the Korean brand that created the first attachment.

The upper surface of the machine can serve as an additional shelf for small hygiene items, which further saves space and creates additional convenience.

The free floor under the appliance makes cleaning more convenient and efficient. No dirt accumulates under the machine.

Advice. If you set the washing machine at the level of human height, then when loading and unloading laundry, you will not need to strain your back, which will avoid injury. This will preserve the health of young mothers and the elderly.

Like all household appliances, this unit also has its drawbacks. Since the machines have just appeared on the market, their choice is very limited. At the moment, there are only 4 models, 3 of which are produced by the same manufacturer.

Miniature wall-mounted machines are available for sale.

The mounted machine is inferior to its older floor brothers in the amount of loaded laundry. You can load up to 3 kg of things into it at a time. Standard devices freely take loads from 5 to 12 kg. Therefore, for a large family, most likely, this option will not work.

These washing machines can be found in major shopping malls and ordered in some online stores.

Device and features of work

The principle of operation of the hinged structure is similar to that of floor devices. The machine also has a drum, the load of laundry is horizontal. The device itself weighs 15-18 kg. When water is collected in it, the weight increases to 50-60 kg. Modern suspended structures freely support it.

Like any household appliances, wall-mounted units have their own disadvantages, limitations and operating features.

The motors in all machines are inverter, which ensures their quiet operation. The vibrations of the machine during spinning are also minimal. Therefore, the tiles will not fall off the walls.

The car doors are also made of transparent plastic. Due to its round drum and design, the product resembles a porthole of a ship or an aircraft.The presence of a decorative porthole window visually expands the space and will certainly please children.

The wall-mounted model provides a frontal loading method, as in conventional typewriters.

Since this design has just appeared on the market, these devices have a limited set of functions. In terms of wash quality and comfort, they match the standard B-class machines found in most families. However, attachments are inferior to high-tech A-class models in terms of both washing and spin quality.

Since the washing machine hangs on the wall, its door, even when open, practically does not interfere with movement around the bathroom.

Review of the most popular models

Daewoo wall washing machines were the first to appear on the market, and it is this company that holds the pioneer right in this area. The pilot model was the DWD-CV701. Now this variant has been discontinued and replaced by the more advanced DWD-CV701 PC model. In total, three models are presented on the market from this company: Daewoo Electronics DWD-CV701 PC, Daewoo Electronics DWC-CV703S and a more functional novelty Daewoo Electronics DWD-CV703W. The first two models are not very different from each other.

A hinged structure can be easily mounted over a bathtub, toilet, sink or even a kitchen table.

The models of this manufacturer are distinguished by stylish streamlined shapes and high safety. All products have a childproof function. Each typewriter contains several programs:

  • Cold wash
  • Mode for baby and delicate items
  • Washing at temperatures from 40C to 60C
  • Rinse mode
  • Spin mode

The spin is not as powerful as in the floor-standing models. The clothes after the wall washers remain quite wet, however, water does not drip from them.

In terms of spaciousness, the wall-mounted machine is definitely inferior to the full-size models. If you need to wash a lot of things at the same time, the attached appliance will not cope with the task.

Installation rules

It is quite difficult to install a washing machine of this type on your own. The safety and connection requirements remain the same as for standard machines.

The unit is connected to a separate outlet, since it has a sufficiently large power. In this case, the electrical outlet must be carried out by an electrician with the appropriate authorization.

wall washing machine installation
The weight of the washing machine is within 16-18 kg. Even taking into account linen and water, it is not heavier than 50-60 kg.

Included with each device are hoses for connecting to water supply and sewerage. In this case, the distance to the riser should be minimal.

Since the device has a significant weight, it needs to be fixed only to the main wall. It cannot be installed on a plasterboard partition.

The design of the model is ideal for rooms decorated in modern, high-tech, minimalist styles.

The main thing in installing the machine is to securely fix it on the wall, preferably on special chemical anchors. This hardware will need to be purchased separately. The set comes with weaker fasteners, which will give strong vibration during spinning.

Cute hanging babies have become a new word in household appliances and managed to prove themselves well. This means that we should expect the appearance of fresh models from other manufacturers in the near future.
