Hotpoint-Ariston LTB 6B019

Hotpoint-Ariston LTB 6B019 is an inexpensive and high-quality model.

The Eco program is the most economical

In terms of efficiency of water consumption, energy and noise level, it corresponds to budget models, but the set of programs and quality of work are good. The description of the model states that during a standard operating cycle its energy consumption is 1.04 kWh and water consumption is 11 liters. This figure is achieved in the “Eco” mode, which is the most economical, but longest. It is suitable for dishes that are not heavily soiled, and large dishes can be washed automatically with a flow rate of 16 liters and 1.35 kWh. If the dishes, including pots and pans, are very dirty or the dirt has not been washed off for a long time, then they can be washed in intensive mode in 2 and a half hours (consumption 16.5 l and 1.65 kWh). In turn, the express program is only suitable for dishes with minor and “fresh” soiling, but the program duration is only 40 minutes, and the consumption is only 9 liters.

Additional machine features

Additional programs include Pre-Rinse and Half Load. The first is useful for “soaking” dried food before washing if you collect it during the day to maximize the load of the chamber. And the second is relevant when you want to wash dishes with the machine partially loaded. When choosing a half load, 12 liters of water and almost an hour and a half of time are wasted.

The LTB 6B019 does not have some useful features like more expensive devices, such as delayed start. If you plan to turn on the car at night, then it is better to take a closer look at models that have this option. But the LTB 6B019 has good ergonomics. So, if you need more space to load large dishes (like pots), you can install the upper basket higher than usual. Spoons and forks are easily folded and compactly placed in a special “basket”.
