Review LG F1292ND
Inexpensive washing machine LG F1292ND will appeal to those who want to get at their disposal a cheap but functional device. The machine was endowed with a simple design and a simple control panel with a few buttons. Also, even a small screen fit here, counting down the time left until the end of the wash. Like many other models from LG, this machine is equipped with a direct drive system. This means that the usual pulley is missing here, and the drum axis is a continuation of the engine axis. Consumers receive a more reliable device, characterized by a reduced level of noise and vibration.
As for the characteristics, they are quite consistent with the cost of the machine. Up to 6 kilograms of laundry is placed in the drum of the device, and the spin cycle is performed at a speed of up to 1200 rpm. At maximum load, vibrations may be noticeable, so it is better not to overload the drum. The number of embedded programs - 13 pcs. Of greatest interest are the stain removal program, the children's wash program and the program for working with delicate fabrics. However, such programs are available on many other machines. The wash itself can be delayed for up to 19 hours.Among other options, you can highlight the ability to adjust the spin speed and set the desired washing temperature. That is, here we see a certain flexibility in setting up washing modes.A definite plus will be the presence of a quick half-hour wash program.
Of the protective functions, the manufacturer has implemented leakage protection, imbalance control, foam control and child protection. However, child protection does not apply to the power off button, which is clearly a disadvantage. Also, a certain disadvantage can be considered the accumulation of water in the rubber gasket under the door. What prevents the manufacturer from getting rid of this shortcoming is not clear.
The LG F-1292ND washing machine is not the most expensive model, but its functionality, in most cases, is enough for every person. The vibration level can indeed be quite high - you will need to adjust the height of the legs. As for the noise, it is noticeable only during the spin cycle - in the washing mode, direct-drive machines practically do not make noise. Also, do not count on the complete noiselessness of the machine, this simply does not happen. But here there is an intuitive control, which will delight all users.
