help, please, advice when I came to your site was aimed at not very expensive Bosch for 23 thousand model SRS45T62, but I read a bunch of negative reviews about Bosch and smoothly began to look closely at Beko. now there are discounts in eldorado and we are targeting this store, but there is only one representative of BEKO DFS 6830. but the price is almost 2 times lower than Bosch
As for the functions, everything seems to be very interesting, there is even a half load, but it does not even smell any data about aquastop or aquasensor, no water hardness should be set, there is no question of a heat exchanger and there is also a turbo drying ... I stalled and I don't understand, what to choose, please help
Almost a year ago, I myself was also tormented by doubts when choosing a dishwasher
Initially, I was guided by an inexpensive typewriter, such as indesite. I have an Indesite washing machine, I am quite happy with it, and since they are next to each other as a result, I thought that two Indesites would look good.
We live in our own house, which is not quite new. But there is water supply, although the system is also old. Well, we still live in a large team with relatives, so we needed a car
- large (I immediately dismissed the small ones, seeing their size "live"), because they love us very much to get the dishes dirty, but to wash them .... (now the machine works every day, or rather every night, rarely - 2 times. If there are guests, then 2-3 times a day)
- easy to use
- reliable, so that you can connect it without any problems, so that it works in the water supply system that is available
- not very expensive (we have not very neat personalities in our team, because if they scratch, bump or something else, so that it is not too sorry)
- and so up to 5-8 years so that it worked, without replacement (well, who knows, how long we will still be under construction, and I want a new typewriter for a new kitchen)
That is, it was necessary to find the optimal price (cheaper) -quality (better) ratio. In general, it is not easy. As a result, I chose a typewriter for 3 months.
First, I searched the internet according to the descriptions of functions - for my requests. Then we went shopping for a long time to revise cars from different manufacturers, to look inside and compare. The search turned out to be long: there were not enough equipment in the stores (and this is in Kiev!), As a result, I did not see the machine that I chose as a result until the moment they brought it to us.
Was definitely against VEKO. Why - I won't even say unequivocally, it was probably embarrassing that it was a Turkish brand.
BOSCH initially did not look at all because of the high cost. But looking in the store for the sake of interest in one of the machines, I realized that I didn't want it for nothing. I don't remember the model.
I considered everything: the number of programs, ease of operation, the number of holes on the water sprinklers (because of this, I unambiguously rejected either Zanussi or the Indesites - I don’t remember exactly - they had only 3 holes), the design of baskets, their ease of use, the possibility folding-unfolding or changing the level of baskets, the obligatory presence of a timer, etc.
In short, as a result of long elections, I finally settled on the CENTURY: for me, it turned out to be the best option available. We bought the DFN 6837 model. From their lineup I considered both the narrow DFS 5xxx and the full-size DFN 6xxx. They are all about the same filling, the difference is mainly in the programs. But the narrow one was definitely too small for us, and from what was available at that time - 6837.
As a result, I am very pleased with the machine. All other family members (especially the female part of it) are pleased that the problem of washing dishes by hand and in a bowl has disappeared. The husband is happy that there is one less problem, peace has reigned in the house))))
I am satisfied with the quality of the sink, BUT ... sometimes there are insufficiently washed things. But this is no longer the machine's fault: our mains voltage is usually 175-180, instead of 220 Therefore, I already know: the dim light of the bulbs in the evening, which means that the next morning, when unloading the machine, carefully review all the dishes.
What else to add ... I really wanted a half load. True, I used it several times But it does not justify itself on all programs: i.e.in fact, half the water consumption is not always used (I did not count electricity). Until we live as a separate family, we didn't really need this function.
I would also like to draw the attention of those who choose technology: in Russia and Ukraine, the lineup and the name of the models may differ slightly. It is better to get information from the official website of the manufacturer's representative in the country in which you will buy. Otherwise, this is how I chose a gas stove: in the version for Russia it comes with cast-iron grates (it was VERY important to me), but in Ukraine it is sold with steel grates. I had to buy the lattices separately. But I am also very pleased with the stove, and especially the oven, and 2 sets of grates will definitely not be superfluous
It is the same with VEKO cars: for Ukraine there is a model 6837, and for Russia there is a 6835 (in my opinion, so ...). And the BEKO DFS 6830 model, as far as I understand, is not: there is either BEKO DFN 6830 - full-size, or if it is narrow, then the number is not 6830. This information is from memory, so 100% accuracy is not guaranteed. Better to check with the manufacturer
As for the service: in Ukraine there is also such a system - in case of a breakdown, call the hotline of the representative office. And already they, having heard the information about the type of breakdown and taking into account your place of residence, determine the company that will deal with the repair. Works promptly!
And finally: in Ukraine, the manufacturer's warranty for the PMM CENTURY is 5 years. For other equipment VEKO - less. So, double-check in Russia, maybe you have the same. This I mean that someone wrote above about the duration of the warranty on the machine.
