The Candy washing machine will become a reliable and hardy assistant, distinguished by an affordable price. Her purchase will not hit your pocket and will save money in the family budget. Let's see what are the advantages of equipment from this manufacturer.
Italian brands are good because their name alone is a guarantee of quality. The same can be said about Candy brand products. It cannot be said that in Russia it is particularly popular, but there are people who like it. The main advantages of washing machines from this brand:
- Good washing quality - excellent results are achieved even on delicate fabrics;

- Management and diagnostics via NFC - implemented in many models;
- A wide range of products - in the product line there is a washing machine for users with any preferences and needs;

But the main advantage is more than affordable price. An ordinary Candy washing machine will cost significantly less than a similar device from competitors. And reviews of specialists and reviews of masters indicate excellent maintainability of equipment and a small amount of factory defects.
Kandy washing machines are a celebration of minimalism and efficiency. At a very low price, the company offers decent quality and only the most basic washing machine functions.

To do this, the product line provides the simplest units with a minimum of programs and are characterized by an affordable price. For advanced users, there are more functional models.
Popular Models
When choosing a washing machine, we focus on the country of the manufacturer, customer reviews, reviews and expert reviews, as well as the price. The ratings of popular models are also affected. We will not be able to describe all the models within the framework of one review, so we will touch on the three most popular Candy automatic washing machines.
Washing machine Candy GC4 1051 D
Before us is one of the most popular models on the market.She received many positive ratings, and according to users, she is one of the most worthy units on the market from Candy. The capacity of the drum is 5 kg, the spin speed is 1000 rpm, adjustable. It should also be noted good efficiency - only 45 liters of water and 0.17 kW of electricity per wash cycle. The number of programs is 16, which is enough for most consumers and types of fabric. The loading hatch has a diameter of 35 cm, and it opens 180 degrees. The noise level during the spin cycle reaches 75 dB.
Washing machine Candy GV4 137TWHC3
A typical representative of capacious machines - 7 kg of laundry are placed in the drum. The spin speed is up to 1300 rpm, selectable.The undoubted advantage of the device is the presence of the Aquastop function, which turns off the water supply in case of emergency. But for some reason there is no protection from children on board. The number of working programs is 15, including wool washing. In the main wash mode, the noise level is only 51 dB - a decent result. But in the spin mode, the sound level soars up to 78 dB, which makes the machine very noisy.
Washing machine Candy GC4 1062 D
Excellent modern model, with a good design. Holds 6 kg of laundry, wringing it out at speeds up to 1000 rpm. The number of implemented programs is 16 pcs, including washing in a large amount of water. For some reason, there is no protection from children again. There is also no Aquastop, leakage protection is made only at the level of the case.The control is electronic, quite understandable - you can easily figure it out without instructions. For one longest cycle, 49 liters of water and 0.17 kW of electricity are consumed. The cabinet is only 40 cm deep, making it ideal for small kitchens and bathrooms.
Kandy washing machine reviews
Users appreciate equipment not only from 2016 or 2017, but also older ones. In addition, many old models are ready to surpass many modern models in terms of reliability. Let's see what users are saying about Candy washing machines.
Washing machine Candy Aqua 1000 T
Alexandra, 32 years
Once I came across a Kandy washing machine, designed specifically for small spaces, or rather, for installation under a sink or in a small niche. So I immediately lit up with the idea of purchasing. Kandy 1000 fits perfectly in the bathroom, right under the sink. So I didn't lose any space. Her drum is small, but since I live alone, this is enough for me. And jackets and other overall items are easier to dry-clean. The programs have everything you need, there is also a temperature controller. In other words, the baby was not offended in functionality.
- Small size, thanks to which it does not take up much space in the bathroom or in the kitchen (depending on where to put it);
- For all the time of work there was not a single breakdown and not a single failure;
- Good washing quality, removes dirt mercilessly.
- Not very clear control - you need to sit with the instructions in order to understand something there. But in general, you can figure it out;
- There are unnecessary programs that are not needed in such a baby;
- There is no pre-soaking, as is done in most machines - there is not even an appropriate tray for a portion of washing powder.
Given that there are very few such washing machines (miniature), I can say thank you to Candy.

A narrow Kandy washing machine with a depth of only 40 cm appeared in our house due to the fact that there was nowhere to install a machine with a full-fledged drum. Despite the fact that 6 kg of laundry can fit in it, our down jackets do not fit well - there is not enough space. But for small things it is spacious. Spinning is carried out at speeds up to 1000 rpm, but it is better to wring out at 800 rpm - this way it is less flattened and ironed better. The noise level is the same as any other washer. In terms of reliability, probably, too - already in the second year she began to play pranks. At first there was a leak, but I fixed it myself. And then it stopped turning on at all, the called master replaced the control unit (it took 3-4 weeks).
- Easy to manage, there are absolutely no difficulties in this regard with it;
- There are "quick wash" and "super-rinse" functions. The latter is especially important, since the wife is allergic to household chemicals;
- Profitability - the cost of utilities, if they have increased, is very insignificant.
- Lack of reliability - two breakdowns in one year, once I had to call the master from the service center;
- During spinning, vibrations appear, despite the presence of unbalance control;
- Often does not wash the powder out of the trays - if you forget to look there, it is taken in a lump.
There are some drawbacks, but they are typical for many devices.

This is probably the worst washer in my life. Breakage on breakage, wash quality is terrible. For 2 years of operation, we called the master 5 times. Given that the same person always came, he advised us to throw it in a landfill. It turns out that we spent money in vain and got almost the most disgusting technique. Since then, I don’t perceive Candy washing machines, because I consider them raw and unfinished - it would not hurt the manufacturer to work on them.
- Large drum for 7 kg of laundry;
- The simplest management;
- High-speed spin (even too fast, since at 1300 rpm the laundry turns out to be dry, but somewhat wrinkled);
- Almost no noise, even when spinning.
- The pump failed twice, and for reasons beyond my control;
- Once she flooded the kitchen, it’s good that water didn’t get to the neighbors;
- Squeaky bearings.
Candy doesn't know how to make washing machines.
Washing machine Aquamatic 2D 1040
Yuri, 36 years
I live in a small studio apartment. You understand that there is no place anywhere, including in the bathroom. There isn't much room in the bathroom except for the toilet and bathtub. In order to have somewhere to install the washing machine, I removed the bathtub, replacing it with a shower cabin. The remaining space was occupied by the Aquamatic washing machine from Candy in mini format. Compared to other models, it is narrower and lower. But 4 kg of laundry are placed in the tank - this is enough for a bachelor. It wrings out just with a bang, an hour on the balcony, an iron - and the thing can be put on again.
- Miniature - I could not even think that such small washers exist in the world;
- Many programs for any fabric;
- Installation under the sink is possible.
- When spinning, it shakes a little, the case is very thin;
- It makes a noticeable noise, the bathroom door has to be closed;
- The duration of some programs is simply over the top.
Great machine, but you can ignore the shortcomings.
Comments
candy smart. It broke down at the end of the warranty after 2 years (the bearing made noise) is not repairable, the plastic tank is not collapsible. Disposable toy!
