Washing machines belong to different classes. There are expensive units with many important and secondary functions, highly intelligent control, the capabilities of which often exceed the needs and level of knowledge of most consumers.

But at the same time, inexpensive products with an excellent ratio of cost and quality are always in demand. These include Atlant washing machines that many have loved, which stand out from competitors with modest functionality and affordability.

What are the pros and cons inherent in units of Belarusian production? How to choose the right model from the Atlant product line? What are the design and functional features of the washing machines of different series? The answers to these questions are detailed in our article.

Advantages and disadvantages of Atlant CJSC products

The Atlant joint-stock company (Belarus) was established relatively recently - in 1993, on the basis of several former Soviet factories that produced refrigerators and other equipment known in the USSR. This indicates sufficient experience in the field of creating household equipment. Washing machines have been produced since 2003.

More recently, Atlant CJSC was known mainly due to to your refrigerators, but cooperation with various European manufacturers has significantly expanded the range of products.

In addition, foreign components make it possible to supply customers with fairly high-quality and modern products.

Atlant CJSC has been producing washing machines for a decade and a half, which is a confirmation of their competitiveness and indicates reliability, performance

When the question arose about the release of washing machines, the company did not begin to reinvent the wheel and develop something new, innovative.

That is, as in the cases with other products, the necessary sets of parts are purchased abroad, from which low-cost, not sparkling in design, but durable and quite functional products are assembled in Minsk.

Washing machines manufactured with the Atlant logo are in demand within the post-Soviet space, which is justified by the affordable price and the ability to find spare parts at any time

Belarusian Atlant washing machines have become in demand, and this indicates that they have enough advantages that can satisfy the needs of numerous users.

Firstly, moderate cost, or rather, all Belarusian cars are among the most inexpensive on the market.

But nevertheless, the most accessible are, for example, separate Haier models may be cheaper, while the specified manufacturer is the most popular in the world.

According to the reviews of the owners of Atlant washing machines, released about a decade ago, the equipment still regularly serves its owners

Secondly, the integrity of the company, which is once again confirmed by the fact that many buyers of equipment of the first generation note that it still copes effectively with its functions. Although these units are more than 10 years old.

Thirdly, the entire product line of the Belarusian manufacturer is optimally adapted to our conditions. For example, products are protected from power surges, which foreign companies cannot boast of.

Atlant company has its own research center, production facilities. All of them are located in Belarus, namely in Minsk and Baranovichi.

In addition, you can highlight a number of advantages of the washing units of the company:

1. Reliability - extensive experience, the use of only modern equipment and high-quality components of foreign origin, allow the Minsk manufacturer to produce decent cars.
2. Excellent washing quality - All without exception, Atlant models for this characteristic belong to class A and this is the highest mark.
3. Functionality - The technique of the presented brand has a sufficient number of pre-installed programs, numerous additional functions. Which allow you to effectively cope with washing of any complexity. In addition, in some cases, owners can actively participate in the creation of the necessary modes, which improves the quality of cleaning.
4. Simple operation - It is intuitive, and the indication, displays will help control the situation. All Atlantes menus are Russified, and the accompanying instructions are clear and extensive, which not every manufacturer can boast of.
5. Low noise - it is not at the lowest level, but is within 59 dB, which is quite enough not to violate the comfort of the owners.
6. Cost-effectiveness - A number of machines of the modern line of Atlant CJSC belong to the A +++ class, which indicates the most economical energy consumption. But this does not apply to all models, so potential buyers should pay attention to this point before purchasing.

In addition, the units of Atlant CJSC are compact - among them are quite narrow and super narrow, the depth of which does not exceed 32 cm. This allows you to significantly save space in small-sized housing.

Although Atlant washing machines are in demand, they are designed only for buyers who do not want or cannot buy more expensive products from top manufacturers

Like any appliances, washing machines of Belarusian origin have some drawbacks. And potential buyers should know them, as the right choice may depend on this.

Indisputable advantages include the availability of quality service in most Belarusian and Russian regions, as well as in large cities of neighboring countries.

The cons include:

1. Insufficient spin quality - Many Atlant models are able to divert water at the level of class C requirements, which is just a good indicator. And some of them correspond only to class D standards and this is an openly mediocre characteristic.
2. Use of commutator motors only - The advantage of this type is only in availability when buying. And performance, durability, efficiency are inferior to inverter counterparts.Read more about the features of different washing machine engines in this article.
3. Lack of efficiency for a number of models - many of them belong to classes A, A +. This means that their owners will have to pay 10-40% more for electricity than users of units belonging to the classes A ++, A +++.
4. Various minor design flaws.

Atlant washing machine owners often complain about minor but unpleasant little things. For example, often when opening hatches, a certain amount of water gets on the floor. You can deal with this simply by placing some kind of rag from below, but people still don't like it.

There are other disadvantages, for example, between the metal surface of the drum and the plastic pads, ribs often accumulate hair, other debris.

In addition, the owners are not enthusiastic that some models can vibrate violently during the spin cycle. Sometimes this phenomenon is frightening, because in one cycle 60 kg units can move a meter.

You can deal with this, observing rules for installing the washer and placing the unit on a rubberized anti-vibration mat. In addition, this phenomenon is quite infrequent.

Machine assembly is carried out on a high-tech production line equipped with only modern equipment. Qualification of the labor collective also cannot cause any complaints

And also you need to know that the Belarusian manufacturer produces only cars with the most demanded type of loading - frontal, that is, there are no vertically loaded ones in the assortment.

But this feature is only partly a drawback - the presence of narrow (41 cm) and very narrow (32 cm) aggregates makes it possible to almost completely compensate for it.

The company produces the most popular washing machines in the CIS with front-loading type. In the range of models offered for sale, models of different capacities, dimensions and widths

Features of choosing a suitable option

Several dozen models are constantly represented in the Atlant ZAO line. Therefore, each potential buyer, in order to make the right choice and not be disappointed, must take into account a number of nuances.

These include:

• performance, that is, you need to know how many kilograms of things the unit holds;
• profitability;
• functionality;
• control;
• dimensions;
• safety.

Washing machines from the Belarusian manufacturer Atlant can wash up to 3.5-8 kg of clothes in one cycle. The smallest load is for very narrow aggregates, the depth of which does not exceed 32 cm.

Under the Atlant brand, washing machines with different tank capacities are produced. small families produce washing machines with a capacity of 3.5 - 4 kg of dry laundry weight

If a potential buyer is looking for an economical model, then you need to be careful, because machines with similar characteristics and appearance can have different efficiencies - from class A to A +++. Therefore, the difference in the payment of electricity will be significant.

It is in the spirit of minimalism that most of the machines from the Atlant range look like minimalism, but this does not appear in any way to durability and performance

All Atlant models are quite functional, as they have a considerable number of programs - 23 and even additional features to ensure high-quality cleaning of things from different tissues.

But, if there is no desire or need to use the whole variety of possibilities or adjust existing modes, then it is better to buy a unit with mechanical control.

It is performed using the buttons and the knob, and to save money, you can choose a model without a display. In this case, the control will be carried out using the light indication of the buttons.

When the buyer plans to wash things from a variety of materials, then he should pay attention to a series of the latest unitsLOGIC Navigation.

These models have a modest number of programs (15 in total) and additional functions, but simple and logical control will allow the user to make significant adjustments and get the maximum result. This applies to efficiency, quality of washing.

The latest models of the Atlant brand are equipped with a miniature hose for emergency drainage of water from the tank. It is located next to the drain system filter behind the decorative cover of the service area.

Today, an important parameter is the safety of using machines - all Atlant cars are protected from power surges.

But, if we touch upon an urgent problem with leaks that rarely occur, but can cause significant damage, then everything is not so optimistic - complete protection against such malfunctions is quite rare.

Often there is the simplest option, which is a sensor that detects only a hose leak. In more rare cases, a housing protection is provided that drains the water if leakage is detected in the tank.

The Belarusian manufacturer approached the creation of his machines in practice, so engines, electronics are bought abroad, and everything else is done in Minsk

Not all models have sensors that can detect foaming. This phenomenon can cause significant damage in the form of a breakdown of the machine, flooding.

A positive point is the presence of child protection in almost all models with electronic control.
