Hotpoint-Ariston CAWD 129

Multifunctional Italian with simple controls

Purebred Italian Hotpoint-Ariston CAWD 129 has been on the shelves for a long time. Despite the fact that the model is not equipped with super-new technologies and options, it will be an excellent acquisition for lovers of analogue and clear control.

One cycle and the thing is ready for hangers

Among a number of advantages of the washing machine, it is worth highlighting the presence of a dryer, since after choosing a programme, you can get completely dry things out of the drum, designed for 7 kg of loading. Each type of fabric has its own drying mode, and if you are used to drying things on clothespins in order to save energy, then the function can be turned off.

It is worth noting that after the start of drying, it will no longer be possible to turn off or pause the process, so you should think in advance if there are things in the drum that are unsuitable for automatic drying. In this case, you will have to be content with only spinning, the maximum speed of which is 1200 rpm. By the way, you won’t be able to choose the speed of revolutions manually: either the maximum value or the minimum value of 600 rpm, which is not always convenient.

Quiet and nimble

Thanks to the three-phase "Super Silent" motor and sound-absorbing panels, you can safely wash at night without worrying that the sleep of the household will be disturbed, and the possibility of a delayed start will allow you to adjust the start of the cycle.

The Super Wash intensive wash programme optimizes time, temperature and water consumption depending on the amount of laundry loaded.

Washing machines from Hotpoint-Ariston have always been famous for their careful attitude to delicate and woolen items, and the presented model is no exception, since in the Woolmark Platinum Care mode, woolen items will remain like new for a long time. Among the useful programs for daily use, it is worth highlighting: the short cycle "Mix 15", the children's underwear mode, as well as the "antibacterial wash" programme.

Despite the claimed foam control system, foam is often “overcast”, which, given the design features, can go directly into the transformer. To avoid such a nuisance, you must carefully consider the dosage and quality of detergents.

Energy class B, which in the modern world can cause resentment, but given the low cost of the machine compared to classmates, this is quite acceptable.
